    It seems to be a sponge. The filter itself is not harmful to people, but the effect of filtering cigarettes is not good, and harmful substances will still enter the human respiratory tract, emphasizing that the damage comes from the part that removes the filter.

    Cigarette filters are made of acetate.

    It has a certain adsorption and filtration effect on harmful gases, but because he has small fibers, it may be inhaled into the respiratory tract, which may cause some harm to the human body, and after human contact, it will carry bacteria.

    In short, a cigarette with a filter is a little better than not, after all, harmful substances can be smoked a little bit.

    There are three types of filters, general propylene fiber filters, modified polypropylene fiber filters and general acetate fiber tips.

    The cost of cigarettes with acetate filter is relatively high, the filtration effect is good, and it is harmless to the human body. In order to reduce costs, some manufacturers replace the filter material with polypropylene (a plastic raw material), although it is non-toxic, and is chemically treated and pulled into filaments, which look similar to acetate, but after ignition, there may be a lot of tiny filaments that are invisible to the naked eye and inhaled into the lungs when the smoker 'swallows the clouds and spits out the fog'.

    It can significantly improve the quality, function, added value and competitiveness of cigarettes, filter sticks, cigarette packs (metal, paper), cigarette holders and other products.

    Once the function of filters evolved beyond their use purely as mouth-like parts, cigarette filters evolved into a mechanism for reducing smoke particles to reduce the amount of tar and nicotine inhaled. The three main functions of cigarette filters include direct interception, inertial compression, and diffusion sedimentation, with the most prevalent being direct interception filters.

    Filtration is a complex process, which means that tar droplets are separated from the smoke and attached to the filter material when they reach the surface.

    Filtration principle of filter mouthpiece:

    1. Physical barrier filtration: that is, the circulation level of flue gas is increased through environmentally friendly cotton, so that the tar and solid substances of flue gas are attached to the filter cotton to enhance the filtration effect

    2. Air specific flow filtration: the control of air flow speed is used to reduce the tar content, and the air speed will be accelerated when passing through the micropores, but there is a cavity in the middle of the cigarette mouthpiece, and the smoke will slow down here, and the outlet is also microporous, the flue gas will stay in the cavity for a short time, the tar will adhere to the filter, and the smoke and dust in the flue gas will also fall in the cavity in the deceleration, and form a mixture with the smoke tar, so that a large number of harmful substances will be intercepted in the cavity

    3. Magnet filtration: The magnetic field of the magnet will make the flue gas flow according to the direction of the magnetic field when it passes, and the magnet itself is cold, so that the tar and smoke can achieve the effect of interception

    4. There are other chemical particles that can achieve the effect of filtration.

    In fact, the filter does not do much. It is common knowledge that the smoke produced by cigarette combustion contains hundreds of chemical components that are harmful to the human body, especially more than 40 carcinogenic substances such as tar and nitrosamines.

    The main function of the cigarette filter is to filter out an average of 30% to 40% of the tar in the cigarette smoke, and at the same time reduce the chance of the lips coming into contact with the tar, so that the mouth will not feel bitter after smoking.

    For this, I think it's really useful, it can filter out a lot of this residue, or like this smoke particles, etc., so that these don't go directly into the lungs, which is a good block.

    The tar and nicotine content in cigarettes is relatively high, and the filter can filter out part of the tar, which can reduce the damage to the body after tar inhalation, and can also avoid teeth being blackened by tar prematurely.

    Cigarette filters are useful. Cigarette filters work as follows:

    1. Reduce the tar content, through filtration, the tar intake of smokers will decrease, and it can also reduce the impact of tar on the heart and cerebrovascular.

    2. Reduce phlegm, in fact, the filter mouthpiece can separate more than 80% of the harmful components from the cigarette, and it has a good relieving effect on cough, phlegm, sore throat and other problems.

    3. The smoke smell is stronger, in addition, the filter mouthpiece can make the taste of the cigarette better, this is because most of the particulate matter is sucked by the mouthpiece, that is, it intercepts the solid matter and then allows the gas to pass through. As a result, the smoke will be stronger and the aroma will be heavier. However, it is still recommended that everyone smoke as little as possible, after all, the harm to the body is still relatively large.

    Cigarette filters are made of acetate or polypropylene.

    According to an article in the American journal "Cancer Research", cigarette filters, which were originally used to reduce tar inhalation, are also potentially dangerous to the human body: their fine fibers will be inhaled into the human body during the smoker's smoking process and stay in the lungs, thus causing harm to the human body.

    Cigarette filter principle:

    1. Direct interception: The tar droplets are directly separated from the smoke and attached to the filter when they reach the surface of the filter.

    2. Inertial compression: low tar and low nicotine volatilization can be achieved without the help of ventilation. It reduces the volatilization of carbon monoxide from cigarettes.

    3. Diffusion precipitation: reduce smoke volatilization (including carbon monoxide), reduce cigarette pressure drop, and remove the fiber pressure of the filter.

    Cellulose acetate refers to a thermoplastic resin obtained by esterification of acetic acid as a solvent and acetic anhydride as an acetylating agent under the action of a catalyst, which is the earliest cellulose organic ester in the commercial production and continuous development of cellulose derivatives. As a porous membrane material, cellulose acetate has the characteristics of high selectivity, high water permeability, and simple processing.

    Polypropylene, which is inherently non-toxic, is a polymer made by polyaddition of propylene. It is a white waxy material with a transparent and light appearance. It is flammable, with a melting point of 189 and softens at about 155, and the operating temperature range is -30 140.

    It can resist the corrosion of acids, alkalis, salts and a variety of organic solvents below 80, and can decompose under high temperature and oxidation.

    Teach you some of the most basic, good cigarette butt filler color is a bit dark, only the bad cigarette is the very white kind. There is also a good cigarette butt when pinched by hand, the elasticity is better, and the poor elasticity is average. There is also soaking in water, good cigarette butts absorb less water, and poor cigarette butts absorb more water.

    In addition, this material is generally difficult to judge, and we can only judge the quality at present.

    The more expensive ones are generally better.

    But then again, you are not afraid of smoking, and you are afraid that the material of the cigarette butt is not good?
