There are many new brands of these cellulose papers.
Most are currently made in Brazil and would therefore be made from 80% Eucalyptus based cellulose, 14% glycerin and 6% water.
The brand Aleda, however printed false statements and claimed to use 100% cellulose (see below).
The Glycerin (Glycerol) in these papers causes them to burn very slow as the Glycerin burns at a low 160°C (thus it slows the burn rate of the surrounding cellulose – a typical disposable lighter burns at 650° C).
The problem with Glycerin is that if it is burned in excess it could produce the possibly toxic gas Acrolein.
Normal white and brown rolling papers use Calcium Carbonate instead of Glycerin to slow the burn rate.
Calcium Carbonate produces harmless CO2 when burned. The inherent properties of this special cellulose film paper cause it to slightly shrivel when heated.
Thus it wraps even tighter around tobacco as it is being smoked and therefore provides a tighter draw with less air-pull.
The cellulose that you encounter in the text is a plant product and comes under the category ‘ Carbohydrates ‘
It is the basic material in ALL kinds of papers .
