FIELD: gel compositions; aerosol generation systems.
SUBSTANCE: group of inventions relates to a gel composition for generating an aerosol and its use. Gel-like composition for generating an aerosol, containing: nicotine; from 50 wt.% up to 80 wt.% of glycerol; from 0.2 wt.% up to 5 wt.% of viscosity increasing agent, wherein the viscosity increasing agent contains xanthan gum, carboxymethyl cellulose, microcrystalline cellulose, methylcellulose, acacia gum, guar gum, lambda carrageenan or starch; from 0.2 wt.% up to 5 wt.% of hydrogen bonding gelling agent, wherein the hydrogen bonding gelling agent comprises galactomannan, gelatine, agarose, konjac gum or agar; from 0.2 wt.% up to 5 wt.% of ionic cross-linking gelling agent, wherein the ionic cross-linking gelling agent comprises low acyl gellan, pectin, kappa-carrageenan, iota-carrageenan or alginate; and calcium ions. The above-described gel composition is used with an aerosol-generating device to heat the gel composition to vaporize nicotine.
EFFECT: composition is stable and retains its shape and weight under the influence of various environmental conditions.
