Abstract
There is provided a multi-segment component for an aerosol generating article, the multi-segment component including a combustible heat source having at least one shaped recess on an outer surface thereof; an aerosol-forming substrate downstream of the combustible heat source; a wrapper circumscribing the combustible heat source along at least part of a length of the combustible heat source; and an inorganic glue located between the combustible heat source and the wrapper, the inorganic glue at least partially filling the at least one shaped recess.
Claims14
A multi-segment component for an aerosol generating article, the multi-segment component comprising:
- a combustible heat source comprising at least one shaped recess on an outer surface thereof, and a rear portion having a substantially constant cross-section, the at least one shaped recess terminating at an upstream end of the rear portion;
- an aerosol-forming substrate downstream of the combustible heat source;
- a wrapper circumscribing the combustible heat source along at least part of a length of the combustible heat source;
- and
- an inorganic glue located between the combustible heat source and the wrapper, the inorganic glue entirely filling the at least one shaped recess,
- wherein a depth of the at least one shaped recess is less than about 10 percent of an outer diameter of the combustible heat source.
