Abstract: A method for increasing bulkiness of reconstituted tobacco by adding tobacco stem particles includes (1) pulverizing a first portion of tobacco stems to obtain tobacco stem particles; (2) classifying the tobacco stem particles with mesh sieves and selecting the tobacco stem particles with a predetermined mesh size; (3) extracting a second portion of the tobacco stems with water and grinding to form a tobacco stem slurry that has a beating degree of 12-14° SR, and mixing the tobacco stem slurry with tobacco leaves in a weight ratio of 6:4 and grinding to obtaining a tobacco slurry that has a beating degree of 18-20° SR; (4) cutting plant fiber pulp boards and dispersing in water to form a plant fiber pulp; (5) preparing a filler solution that contains 10 wt % of a mineral filler; (6) mixing, rolling and drying to obtain the reconstituted tobacco.

Abstract: A method of preparing an aramid paper coated with aramid nanofibers includes the following steps: (1) mixing a meta-aramid fibrid slurry and a chopped meta-aramid fiber slurry, filtering, pressing and drying to obtain a meta-aramid paper; (2) mixing potassium hydroxide, deionized water, dimethyl sulfoxide, and para-aramid nanofibers in a container, and stirring to obtain a para-aramid nanofiber coating solution; and (3) applying the para-aramid nanofiber coating solution to a first side of the meta-aramid paper, washing with deionized water, and drying; applying the para-aramid nanofiber coating solution to a second side of the meta-aramid paper, washing with deionized water, and drying; and hot pressing to obtain the aramid paper coated with aramid nanofibers.
