    • 【Objective】To investigate the physical properties of reconstituted tobacco sheets produced by different processes and to examine their relationships with the cut filler characteristics and cigarette properties of heated tobacco products.【Methods】Gas chromatography and scanning electron microscopy were used to characterize the chemical composition and microstructure of reconstituted tobacco sheets produced by three processes, namely the slurry, rolling, and dry method. A texture analyzer was employed to measure their physical properties, including elastic modulus, fracture strength, and surface adhesion. Grey relational analysis and multiple linear regression were then applied to evaluate the correlations and influence weights between these physical properties and cut filler characteristics (long strand proportion, broken strand proportion, filling value) as well as cigarette physical properties (weight, circumference, draw resistance, hardness).【Results】Significant differences were observed in the chemical composition, microstructure, and physical properties among the reconstituted tobacco sheets produced by the three processes. The dry-method sheets exhibited a loose and porous structure, high fiber content, and the lowest amount of liquid components, resulting in a tough texture. The rolling-method sheets displayed a dense structure, the highest liquid content, high elongation at break, and strong resistance to fracture. The slurry-method sheets showed moderate composition and structure, with high strength but low elongation at break, making them prone to fracture. Correlation and regression analyses revealed that the long strand proportion was positively correlated with the longitudinal tensile fracture strength and transverse shear strength, with influence weights of approximately 13.228% and 11.338%, respectively. The filling value was positively correlated with the longitudinal elastic modulus and longitudinal elongation at break, with influence weights of about 21.624% and 12.231%. Cigarette properties were predominantly associated with the filling value and long strand proportion.【Conclusion】Key physical properties of reconstituted tobacco sheets, such as longitudinal elastic modulus, longitudinal tensile strength at break, and elongation, influence the filling value and long strand proportion of the cut filler, which in turn affect cigarette physical properties including draw resistance, weight, and circumference. These findings provide a theoretical reference for the subsequent process optimization, texture control, and blending design of reconstituted tobacco sheets for heated tobacco products.
