Benefits of technology

[0007]According to a second aspect, the present invention provides a method for producing a vaporisable material comprising plant fibres for use in a vapour generating device which generates a vapour by heating the vaporisable material, the method comprising the step of reducing the particle size of the plant fibres by cutting the fibres and further characterised in that the plant fibres are not crushed.

Problems solved by technology

However, such devices are not always popular with consumers because they can produce inconsistent levels of vapour and are often unreliable in terms of the length of use of an individual capsule, leaving to an inconsistency of flavour delivery to a user.

example

[0054]The effect of preparing vaporisable material comprising tobacco fibres of different particle sizes was investigated by the inventors. The consistency of release of compounds (propylene glycol (PG) and total particulate matter (TPM)) during smoking was compared for a range of products comprising plant fibres of different particle sizes.

[0055]Test samples were prepared as shown in Table 4:

Abstract

A method for producing a vaporisable material comprising plant fibres for use in a vapour generating device which generates a vapour by heating the vaporisable material is disclosed. The method comprises reducing the particle size of the plant fibres to less than 1.5 mm and mixing plant fibres of at least two ranges of particle size. The invention also relates to vaporisable material for use in a vapour generating device obtainable by the method.

Description

[0001]The present invention relates to a vaporisable material and a vaporisable material-containing capsule for use in a vapour generating device. Devices which heat rather than burn vaporisable material, such as tobacco, to create a vapour for inhalation are becoming popular. They generally comprise a heat source powered by gas or electricity and a chamber for receiving a plug of vaporisable material or a disposable capsule containing a vapour-generating product. In use the plug or capsule is inserted into the device and heated by the heat source to generate a vapour for inhalation. An example of such a device can be found in described in PCT publication WO 2009 / 079641.[0002]Such devices have become popular because they can provide a user with an experience very similar to smoking the vaporisable material but without the burning of plant material such as tobacco.[0003]However, such devices are not always popular with consumers because they can produce inconsistent levels of vapour ...
