The invention comprises a method and apparatus for forming a Cannabis product, comprising the steps of: combining tetrahydrocannabinol and ethanol to form a THC-alcohol compound, the THC-alcohol compound comprising less than fifty percent water by mass and subjecting the THC-alcohol compound to a shear force in excess of 100 or 50,000 sec.sup.−1. Optionally and preferably, formation of the Cannabis product results after successive steps of reducing viscosity of the tetrahydrocannabinol compound, such as by 2000+ cP and 20+ cP, or after reversing a first viscosity reducing step of 2000+ cP with a subsequent viscosity increase of 2000+ cP, such as in the formation of a THC containing drink, edible, vape pen solution, or preroll.

The present disclosure relates to aerosol delivery devices. In various implementations, the aerosol delivery devices comprise a control device that includes a battery, a control component, and an outer housing that defines receiving chamber, and a cartridge that includes a mouthpiece portion, a tank that contains a liquid composition, and a heater configured to heat the liquid composition. The cartridge and the control device each include at least one connector configured to provide a magnetic and an electrical connection between the cartridge and the control device such that the cartridge can be removably and operatively received into the cartridge receiving chamber of the control body, wherein the at least one connector of the cartridge is located on the mouthpiece portion.

Embodiments provide a flammable and fire-resistant carbonaceous heat source and a method and a use for the same. In the embodiments, the flammable and fire-resistant carbonaceous heat source of the present disclosure includes flammable carbon, flame-retardant carbon and a binder, wherein, the flame-retardant carbon includes graphite, the binder includes glutinous rice glue, and based on a total weight of the flammable and fire-resistant carbon heat source, a content of the flammable carbon, the flame-retardant carbon and the binder is 40-75 wt%, 10-45 wt% and 3-15 wt%, respectively. The method for preparing the flammable and fire-resistant carbonaceous heat source of the present disclosure includes the following steps: mixing the flammable carbon, the flame-retardant carbon, and the binder in a content ratio; extruding and shaping a resulting mixture; and drying a resulting mixture.

A smoke generation product and a manufacturing method therefor, which relate to the technical field of tobaccos. The smoke generation product comprises a filter tip base body, a second connecting component, and an aroma generation portion. The filter tip base body comprises a first connecting component, and comprises a cooling portion and a filtering portion that are sequentially disposed in a smoking direction. The filtering portion and the cooling portion are connected by means of the first connecting component. A filtering passage and a cooling passage are in mutual communication. The aroma generation portion is connected to the filter tip base body by means of the second connecting portion, and the aroma generation portion is configured to release smoke by means of heating and make the smoke enter the cooling passage.

An article (1) for use in a non-combustible aerosol provision system is provided. The article comprises a rod comprising a column of aerosol-generating material (3) and a mouthpiece (2) at a first end of the column of aerosol-generating material. The column of aerosol generating material is wrapped in a wrapper (4). A component (5) is located within the wrapper at an opposite end of the column of aerosol-generating material to retain the aerosol generating material within the wrapper. A method for manufacturing an article for use in a non-combustible aerosol provision system is also disclosed.

A smoking article may include a cigarette incorporated within an electrically powered aerosol generating device that acts as a holder for that cigarette. The smoking article possesses at least one form of tobacco. The smoking article also possesses a mouth-end piece that is used by the smoker to inhale components of tobacco that are generated by the action of heat upon components of the cigarette. A representative smoking article possesses an outer housing incorporating a source of electrical power (e.g., a battery), a sensing mechanism for powering the device at least during periods of draw, and a heating device (e.g., at least one electrical resistance heating element) for forming a thermally generated aerosol that incorporates components of tobacco. During use, the cigarette is positioned within the device, and after use, the used cigarette is removed from the device and replaced with another cigarette.

A system, apparatus and method of manufacturing a tubular element (500) for use in an aerosol generating article. The tubular element (500) may comprise gel (124), or comprise a porous medium (125) loaded with gel (124), or comprise thread loaded with gel (214), or comprise a combination thereof.

Delivery of additives in a smoking article is provided through thermally degradable, robust immobilized additive inserts. Additives can be immobilized in an elongated device or an insert, wherein the elongated device or the insert is sufficiently robust to allow the elongated device or the insert to be manually or machine inserted into a smoking article while maintaining the structure of the elongated device or the insert. By providing additives in the form of thermally degradable immobilized additive inserts, migration and/or loss of the additives in a smoking article prior to smoking can be reduced.
