Estimating the term…
The present disclosure relates to an article for use in an aerosol provision system. The article comprises a sheet material comprising a first aerosol generating material, wherein the sheet material is gathered to form a body. The article further comprises a second aerosol generating material that is engaged by the sheet material such that the second aerosol generating material is held within the body by the sheet material. The present disclosure also relates to a method of manufacturing an article for an aerosol provision device, a kit of parts comprising an article and an aerosol provision device, and to a package of articles.
An article for use in an aerosol provision system, the article comprising:
An article according to any one of the preceding claims, wherein the sheet material is formed into strips or strands, wherein the second aerosol generating material is held between the strips or strands.
An article according to any one of the preceding claims, wherein the sheet material is crimped.
An article according to any one of the preceding claims, wherein the article does not comprise additive or binder to retain the second aerosol generating material within the body.
An article according to any one of the preceding claims, wherein the body of material extends from a first end of the article to a second end of the article.
An article according to any one of the preceding claims, wherein the first and second aerosol generating materials form a collation of aerosol generating material that extends at least 90% of the length of the article and, preferably, at least 92%, 94%, 96%, 98% or 99% of the length of the article and, preferably, extends the entire length of the article.
An article according to any one of the preceding claims, wherein the first and/or second aerosol generating material comprises, consists of, or essentially consists of, tobacco material.
An article according to any one of the preceding claims, wherein the first aerosol generating material comprises a filler.
An article according to any one of the preceding claims, wherein the article comprises an aerosol-former material.
An article according to any one of the preceding claims, wherein the second aerosol generating material comprises extruded and/or compressed aerosol generating material and, preferably, comprises extruded and/or compressed tobacco.
An article according to any one of the preceding claims, wherein the second aerosol generating material comprises beads of aerosol generating material.
An article according to any one of the preceding claims, wherein first and second aerosol generating materials have different densities and, preferably, the density of the second aerosol-generating material is at least 25% higher than the density of the first aerosol-generating material.
An article according to any one of the preceding claims, wherein the second aerosol-generating material has a density in the range of about 0.4 g/cm3 to about 2 g/cm3.
An article according to any one of the preceding claims, wherein the first aerosol-generating material with a density in the range of about 0.1 g/cm3 to about 1 g/cm3.
An article according to any one of the preceding claims, wherein the second aerosol generating material comprises fibres of aerosol generating material.
An article according to any one of the preceding claims, wherein the sheet material comprises aerosol-generating material comprising:
An article according to any one of the preceding claims, wherein the aerosol-generating material of the sheet comprises a flavourant.
An article according to any one of the preceding claims, wherein the sheet material is resiliently deformable.
An article according to any one of the preceding claims, the first and second aerosol-generating materials are present in the article in a ratio of from 1:10 to 10:1, by weight.
An article according to any one of the preceding claims, wherein the article comprises from about 20 to about 330 mg of the first aerosol generating material and, preferably, from about 50 to about 300 mg, or from about 40 to about 125 mg of the first aerosol generating material.
An article according to any one of the preceding claims, wherein the article comprises from about 20 to about 330 mg of the second aerosol generating material and, preferably, from about 50 to about 300 mg, or from about 40 to about 125 mg of the second aerosol generating material.
An article according to any one of the preceding claims, comprising a cooling element immediately downstream of the body.
An article according to any one of the preceding claims, comprising a segment upstream of the body.
A method of manufacturing an article for use in an aerosol provision system, the method comprising:
A method according to any one of claims 40 to 3962 wherein the second aerosol generating material comprises fibres of aerosol generating material.
