In addition to naturally occurring substances in tobacco, many other substances are added to the cigarette during the process of manufacture. </p>\n<p><strong> Additives contained in the cigarette </strong></p>\n<p> Manufacturers legally mix many tobacco additives (Tobacco Ordinance, OTab). Among them are:</p>\n<p>flavorful ingredients (flavor mixtures, spices, sugar, honey, plant extracts).<br>\n humectants (glycerin, propylene glycol, phosphoric acid),<br>\n ash bleaches (alum, hydroxide and aluminum salts, aluminum and magnesium oxide, talc, silicic acid, acids, ammonium salts),<br>\n preservatives (benzoic acid, formic acid, propionic acid), adhesives and binders (collodion, cellulose, shellac).</p>\n<p>However, of the 600 or so substances that are likely to be added at the time of manufacture, some are not legally controlled. Their goal is mainly to make tobacco smoke more pleasant and to accelerate the absorption of nicotine, respectively to increase the amount of nicotine available. Tobacco industry documents released as a result of court judgments and decisions show how additive research and development is targeted to make nicotine more effective, and to link more customers to the market of the cigarette. </p>","appDepth":2,"appParentPermlink":"f3zp5mh75","appParentAuthor":"mistura","musingAppId":"aU2p3C3a8N","musingAppVersion":"1.1","musingPostType":"answer"}" |
