Smoking article wrapper having filler of hydromagnesite/magnesium hydroxide and smoking article made with said wrapper
Patent 5979461 Issued on November 9, 1999. Estimated Expiration Date: March 24, 2017. Estimated Expiration Date is calculated based on simple USPTO term provisions. It does not account for terminal disclaimers, term adjustments, failure to pay maintenance fees, or other factors which might affect the term of a patent.
Hydromagnesite-magnesium hydroxide compositions which, when used as fillers in smoking article wrappers, significantly reduce the amount of sidestream smoke produced by the burning smoking article while providing the smoking article with good subjective characteristics.
