  • Decreasing the burn rate of smoking tobaccos
    Patent number: 4183362

C. to about 500.degree. C. In addition, the presence of small amounts of an alkaline material such as calcium hydroxide is desired to counteract marginal changes in the yields of some smoke components and to increase smoke pH.
