Abstract

Various embodiments of the present technology may provide a method of manufacturing a vaporizable product for use in an atomizer. The method may include grinding a vaporizable material and generating a paste utilizing the ground vaporizable material. The method may further include extruding the paste to form the vaporizable product.

1 . A method of manufacturing a vaporizable product for use in an atomizer, comprising:
 grinding a vaporizable material;   forming a paste utilizing the ground vaporizable material; and   extruding the paste to form the vaporizable product.   
     
     
         2 . The method of  claim 1 , further comprising cooling the vaporizable material prior to grinding the vaporizable material. 
     
     
         3 . The method of  claim 1 , wherein forming the paste comprises treating the ground vaporizable material with water, a binding agent, a conductive agent, or a combination thereof. 
     
     
         4 . The method of  claim 1 , wherein extruding the paste comprises:
 applying heat to the paste;   adjusting a porosity of the paste;   applying pressure to the paste to pass the paste through a mold; and   cutting the extruded paste.   
     
     
         5 . The method of  claim 3 , wherein the binding agent comprises at least one of propylene glycol and vegetable glycerin. 
     
     
         6 . The method of  claim 3 , wherein the conductive agent comprises at least one of aluminum nitride and carbon nanotube.
