  1. Abstract: In order to analyze the effect of cigarette density on the quality of cigarette mainstream smoke, four densities were made using the same tobacco material rolls, which were 240, 260, 280 and 300 mg/cm3. Through the comparison of the harmful components, the release of neutral aromatic substances and the sensory quality of the main flue gas at these four densities, it was found that the tar and ammonia emissions from the main flue gas under the density of 260 mg/cm3 were the lowest, and the relative content of neutral aromatic substances was the highest; The nicotine release in the mainstream flue gas at the density of 280 mg/cm3 was the lowest; The emission of CO in the mainstream flue gas at 240 mg/cm3 density was the lowest, the irritating was maximum, and the flue gas concentration was the smallest. Comprehensive observation showed that the mainstream smoke quality was optimal under 260 mg/cm3 density.
