Advanced Materials Design for Adsorption of Toxic Substances in Cigarette Smoke
Advanced Science, 2023 AbstractCigarettes, despite being economically important legal consumer products, are highly addictive and harmful, particularly to the respiratory system. Tobacco smoke is a complex mixture containing over 7000 chemical compounds, 86 of which are identified to have “sufficient evidence of carcinogenicity” in either animal or human tests. Thus, tobacco
