Abstract: Smoking article include a smokable material and an activated carbon particle downstream of the smokable material. The activated carbon particle is produced from a whole seed. The activated carbon particle has a length, width and height. At least two of the length width and height are independently in a range from about 1 mm to about 7.5 mm. The particles can be spheroids, in which case the length, width and height would be the same or similar.

Abstract: An inhaler article (110) comprises a body (112) extending along a longitudinal axis (A) from a mouthpiece end (113) to a distal end (114), a capsule cavity (116) defined within the body, and a distal end element (118) disposed at the distal end and extending to the capsule cavity. The distal end element comprises an element distal end (120), an element inner end (122), a solid core portion (124), and at least two grooves (126). The solid core portion extends from the element distal end to the element inner end. The at least two grooves are helical grooves that rotate about solid core portion along the longitudinal axis from the element distal end to the element inner end. The at least two helical grooves extend along an outer surface (128) of the distal end element.

Abstract: An aerosol-generating article for producing an inhalable aerosol upon heating is provided, the aerosol-generating article including: a rod of aerosol-generating substrate, the rod including a sheet of homogenised plant material, the homogenised plant material being arranged longitudinally between an upstream end of the rod and a downstream end of the rod; and a wrapper circumscribing the homogenised plant material, the sheet of homogenised plant material including a plurality of formed fluid passageways extending through a thickness of the sheet and configured to establish a fluid communication between opposite sides of the sheet. A method of making a rod for an aerosol-generating substrate in an aerosol-generating article, a rod for an aerosol-generating substrate in an aerosol-generating article, and an aerosol-generating system, are also provided.

Abstract: A filter for a smoking article includes filtration material and an amorphous magnesium carbonate material contained within the filtration material. A smoking article includes a smokable material and the filter downstream of the smokable material.

Abstract: A smoking article includes a smokable material and a filter downstream of the smokable material. The filter includes activated carbon material having a BET of between 1000 and 2000 m2/g and exhibiting less particle breakthrough than granulated coconut shell derived activated carbon currently used for filters of smoking articles.
