Abstract (en)
[origin: WO2020128045A1] An aerosol-generating article (10) for producing an inhalable aerosol when heated comprises: a rod of aerosol-generating substrate (12); a mouthpiece segment (18) comprising a plug of filtration material and arranged downstream of, and longitudinally aligned with, the rod (12); and a hollow tubular segment (16) between the rod (12) and the mouthpiece segment (18). The hollow tube segment (16) is longitudinally aligned with the rod (12) and the mouthpiece segment (18), and defines a cavity extending all the way to an upstream end of the mouthpiece segment (18). The article (10) further comprises a ventilation zone (26) at a location along the hollow tubular segment. An equivalent internal diameter of the hollow tubular segment (16) at the location of the ventilation zone (26) is at least about 5 millimetres. The rod (12) of aerosol-generating substrate comprises at least an aerosol former, the rod (12) having an aerosol former content of at least about 10 percent on a dry weight basis.
