A shisha, heat-not-burn, or combustion product casing including an active ingredient, a shisha, heat-not-burn, or a combustion product including a casing with an active ingredient, or a method of making the same are disclose herein.

A process for preparing coated particles of a plant material includes: (a) combining plant material particles and a protein in a liquid medium, wherein the protein adsorbs onto at least a portion of a surface of the particles to form a first layer; and (b) mixing a polysaccharide including a pectin with the liquid medium, so that the polysaccharide adsorbs onto at least a portion of a surface of the first layer to form a second layer. In addition, a palatable product comprising at least one coated particle prepared by this process is described.

A melt-blown fabric for pouching smokeless tobacco or a smokeless tobacco substitute can include melt-blown polymer fibers. The fabric can have a basis weight of less than 30 gsm and a tensile strength of at least 4mJ in at least one predetermined direction. Method of making the fabric can include melt-blowing a polymeric material against a support surface and bonding the fibers or arranging them in a predetermined orientation. Pouched smokeless tobacco or tobacco substitute products including the fabrics provided herein can provide desirable flavor and tactile experience.

A shisha, heat-not-burn, or combustion product casing including an active ingredient, a shisha, heat-not-burn, or a combustion product including a casing with an active ingredient, or a method of making the same are disclose herein.

A shisha, heat-not-burn, or combustion product casing with or without an active ingredient, a shisha, heat-not-burn, or a combustion product including a casing or a method of making the same are disclose herein.

The present disclosure provides an aerosol generating component including a substrate impregnated with two or more aerosol forming materials, including a first aerosol forming material and a second aerosol forming material, wherein the first aerosol forming material and the second aerosol forming material each have different boiling points, different vapor pressures, or both. The disclosed aerosol generating component may be utilized in aerosol delivery devices such as heat not burn (HNB) or electrically heated aerosol delivery devices.

The invention features tobacco compositions and methods of their use and manufacture. Compositions of the invention may be based on a variety of technologies. Technologies include films, tabs, shaped parts, gels, consumable units, insoluble matrices, and hollow shapes. In addition to tobacco, compositions may also contain flavors, colors, and other additives as described herein. Compositions may also be orally disintegrable. Exemplary compositions and methods of their manufacture are described herein.

An apparatus for enrobing a product portion can include at least one polymer spray head adapted to create at least one flow of polymeric fibers to produce at least one polymer enrobing zone and a conveyor system adapted to move at least one product portion from at least one position below at least one polymer enrobing zone and to at least one position above at least one polymer enrobing zone to drop each product portion through one or more polymer enrobing zones a plurality times at different orientations to enrobe each product portion with polymeric fibers.

Described herein is a method of making an aerosol-forming substrate. The aerosol-forming substrate comprises an aerosol-forming material which comprises nicotine and/or a tobacco material. The method comprises electrospraying the aerosol-forming material or component or precursor thereof.

A process for preparing an orally-enjoyable film of encapsulated plant material includes combining particles of finely divided plant material, a first coating material, and a second coating material, then inducing gelation to form a gel matrix of the particles coated with the first coating material embedded in the second coating material, followed by forming a film from the gel matrix. Also disclosed is a film of coated particles of finely-divided plant material, made of a gel matrix of plant material at least partially surrounded by a first coating material and embedded in a second coating material.
