The invention relates to a method for producing molded parts, wherein semifinished product is heated in a heating device and is subsequently fed to a shaping machine. The heating device has a closed housing having a door or has a separately closable opening. The heating device optionally has a dividable housing, in the case of which the housing components can be moved away from each other in order to form an opening and can be moved toward each other in order to form a closed housing. One or more radiant heaters, in particular infrared radiant heaters, are provided in the interior of the housing. Semifinished product is introduced into the interior of the housing and radiant heat produced by the radiant heaters is applied thereto, said semifinished product is heated, and said semifinished product is subsequently removed from the housing. Thermal convection, which is directed substantially upward in the housing, is produced in the interior of the housing. According to the invention, an air flow counteracting the thermal convention, in particular an air flow directed substantially downward in the interior of the housing, is produced in the interior of the housing.

A heater includes an aluminum nitride base having equal to or less than 1% impurities, particularly one embodiment having none of polybrominated biphenyl, polybrominated diphenyl ether, hexabromocyclododecane, polyvinyl chloride, chlorinated paraffin, phthalate, cadmium, hexavalent chromium, lead, and mercury. At least one resistive trace of silver and palladium overlies the base as does a conductor of silver and platinum or palladium that electrically connects to the resistive trace to apply an external voltage to the resistive trace for heating thereof. At least four, but optionally five, layers of glass overlie the resistive trace and part of the conductor. A first two consecutive layers of the glass layers define a first glass having a solid content of more than 65% and a viscosity of 100 Pa.Math.s or less. The following two or three consecutive layers of the five layers define a second glass dissimilar to the first.

A method of making a heater includes an aluminum nitride base having equal to or less than 1% impurities, particularly one embodiment having none of polybrominated biphenyl, polybrominated diphenyl ether, hexabromocyclododecane, polyvinyl chloride, chlorinated paraffin, phthalate, cadmium, hexavalent chromium, lead, and mercury. The base is fired in a heating unit before any layering. Thereafter, on a topside and backside of the base a conductor layer is layered and allowed to settle and dry before firing. Next, a resistive layer is layered on the base from a resistor paste such that the resistive layer connects to the conductor layer on the topside. The resistor paste is allowed to settle and dry and then the base with the conductor and resistor layers is fired. At least four layers of glass are layered next over the resistive layer, each instance thereof including layering a glass, drying the glass and firing.

The present disclosure relates to aerosol delivery devices. The aerosol delivery devices include mechanisms configured to deliver an aerosol precursor composition from a reservoir to an atomizer including a vaporization heating element to produce a vapor. For example, a bubble jet head may be configured to dispense the aerosol precursor composition to the atomizer. The bubble jet head may be fixedly coupled to the atomizer. The bubble jet head may include a precursor inlet, an ejection heating element, and a precursor nozzle. The atomizer may include a vaporization heating element.
