ARTICLE FOR USE IN A NON-COMBUSTIBLE AEROSOL PROVISION SYSTEM
An article for use in a non-combustible aerosol provision system includes an aerosol-generating section with a plurality of strands and/or strips of aerosol-generating material. The aerosol-generating section is circumscribed by a moisture impermeable wrapper and a cooling section is provided directly adjacent to the aerosol-generating section. The cooling section can have at least one of a hollow channel having an internal diameter of between about 1 mm and about 4 mm or a maximum of 32% of the cross-sectional area of the cooling section being a hollow channel. A non-combustible aerosol provision system is also described.
EXTRUDED STRUCTURES
The present disclosure provides component-containing extruded structures, which include various components entrapped within a base material matrix, and to products containing such component-containing extruded structures. The disclosure also includes a method for entrapping the components, including mixing the component or components with a base material in water, extruding the mixture, and removing at least a portion of the water therefrom. The resulting component-containing extruded structure can then be incorporated within various products, e.g., consumable products such as aerosol-generating devices and components, oral and smokeless products, and conventional smoking articles.

SILICONE SMOKELESS TOBACCO PRODUCT
A smokeless tobacco system include one or more silicone smokeless tobacco products configured to generally retain their shape during processing, shipping, and consumer handling. Each silicone smokeless tobacco product can comprise a moist smokeless tobacco in combination with a silicone binder such that the final product has tobacco exposed along an exterior surface and is configured to have material properties providing improved handling, an improved mouth feel, and a satisfying flavor profile.

NON-TOBACCO ORAL NICOTINE POUCH COMPOSITION
A non-tobacco oral nicotine pouch composition is provided, including water in an amount of at least 15% by weight of the pouch composition; nicotine; and at least one sugar alcohol, the pouch composition being free of humectants consisting of alginate, propylene glycol, hydroxypropyl cellulose, and glycerol. An oral pouched nicotine product is also provided, including a saliva-permeable pouch and the non-tobacco oral nicotine pouch composition enclosed in the saliva-permeable pouch.
Homogenized tobacco material with improved volatile transfer
There is provided a heated aerosol-generating article for producing an inhalable aerosol, the heated aerosol-generating article including: an aerosol-forming substrate that is a homogenized tobacco material including tobacco, a fat having a melting point between 20° C. and 50° C., and one or more aerosol-formers, the homogenized tobacco material containing at least 60% tobacco on a dry weight basis. A homogenized tobacco material is also provided.

TOBACCO FILLING FOR NON-COMBUSTION-TYPE HEATING SMOKING ARTICLE
The purpose of the present invention is to provide a tobacco filling: that is for a non-combustion-type heating smoking article that heats a filling that contains cut tobacco; that suppresses reductions in the evaporated amount of a fragrant smoke flavor component for the non-combustion-type heating smoking article; and that can suppress the “feeling that fragrant smoke flavor is being inhibited.” According to the present invention, a dihydrogen salt of a trivalent or tetravalent acid that has a first acid dissociation constant of 1.0 or lower is added to a tobacco filling, and, as a result, reductions in the evaporated amount of a fragrant smoke flavor component can be suppressed, as can “the feeling that fragrant smoke flavor is being inhibited.”
METHOD TO PRODUCE A SHEET OF MATERIAL CONTAINING ALKALOIDS
The invention relates to a method for the preparation of a sheet of a material containing alkaloids, said method comprising: grinding a material containing alkaloids to a powder; combining the powder with a binder, an aerosol former and water, so as to form a slurry, wherein the slurry comprises: the powder of the material containing alkaloids in an amount comprised between about 40 percent and about 70 percent of the total weight of the slurry; the water in an amount comprised between about 30 percent and about 55 percent of the total weight of the slurry; the binder in an amount comprised between about 0 percent and about 1 percent of the total weight of the slurry; the aerosol former in an amount comprised between 1 percent and about 5 percent of the total weight of the slurry; applying the slurry to a substrate sheet including fibres so as to form a sheet of a material containing alkaloids.
