Therefore, the volatile organic compound V component in extract A was sufficiently retained in the tobacco sheet. In addition, a sheet to which extract A was not added was used as a comparative reconstituted tobacco sheet (Level 3).
- levels 1 and 2 yielded tobacco materials that satisfied Ax/N ⁇ 1.5. This is believed to be because a hydrophilized sheet was used, which increased the affinity with liquid B, resulting in a large amount of volatile organic compound V in liquid B remaining in the sheet.
- level 3 which used a non-hydrophilized sheet, had a low affinity with liquid B, resulting in insufficient volatile organic compound V in liquid B remaining in the sheet. This is believed to be why level 3 had a low Ax/N.

Abstract
L'invention concerne un matériau de tabac. Lorsque, telle que mesurée par chromatographie en phase gazeuse, la surface de pic de la nicotine est N et, parmi les composés organiques volatils V ayant un indice de rétention (RI) d'au moins 1 350, la surface de pic d'un composé X ayant la surface de pic minimale est Ax, ce matériau de tabac satisfait à la relation Ax/N ≥ 1,5.
