Zusammenfassung: | A method for manufacture of a smoking material is disclosed which involves impregnating a non-toxic carbohydrate base material with 2.5-10% by weight of a degradation catalyst in aqueous solution, partially drying the base to a water content of 1-15% and then catalytically degrading the carbohydrate by microwave heat so that the weight of the degraded material is less than 90% of the original carbohydrates. The microwave energy employed in the degradation process is supplied at a rate of 100-300 calories for each gram of carbohydrate. |
