Abstract

A tobacco smoke filter element comprises a tubular outer wrapper surrounding a body of compressed absorbent material having in its expanded condition passages arranged to permit axial filtering flow of smoke therethrough, and at least one frangible capsule containing a tobacco smoke-treating liquid medium positioned within said body. Breaking of the capsule by squeezing the outer wrapper releases its liquid medium content into the body of compressed absorbent material which material then expands to fill the outer wrapper substantially completely. In one embodiment a single centrally positioned capsule is used, whereas in another embodiment microcapsules are distributed throughout a body comprising slivers of compressed absorbent material. The liquid medium may be water, optionally including a surfactant, a flavourant such as lemon oil, menthol or a tobacco extract, or a decongestant.
