Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
There is provided an electronic vapor provision system comprising: a vaporizer for vaporizing liquid for inhalation by a user of the electronic vapor provision system; a power supply comprising a cell or battery for supplying power to the vaporizer; and a filter for filtering vaporized liquid prior to inhalation by the user of the electronic vapor provision system, wherein the filter can partially or completely remove from the vapor one or more aldehydes present in the vapor.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
The invention claimed is: 1. An electronic vapor provision system comprising: a vaporizer for vaporizing liquid for inhalation by a user of the electronic vapor provision system; a power supply comprising a cell or battery for supplying power to the vaporizer; and a filter for filtering vaporized liquid prior to inhalation by the user of the electronic vapor provision system, wherein the filter can partially or completely remove from the vapor one or more aldehydes present in the vapor, wherein the filter has an amine functional group which reacts with aldehydes. 2. An electronic vapor provision system according to claim 1 wherein the filter is an ion exchange resin. 3. An electronic vapor provision system according to claim 1 wherein the filter can partially or completely remove from the vapor each aldehyde present in the vapor. 4. An electronic vapor provision system according to claim 1 wherein the filter can partially or completely remove from the vapor one or more aldehydes selected from acetaldehyde, acrolein, butyraldehyde, crotonaldehyde, formaldehyde and propionaldehyde. 5. An electronic vapor provision system according to claim 1 wherein the filter can partially or completely remove from the vapor at least formaldehyde. 6. An electronic vapor provision system according to claim 1 wherein the filter can partially or completely remove from the vapor each of acetaldehyde, acrolein, butyraldehyde, crotonaldehyde, formaldehyde and propionaldehyde. 7. An electronic vapor provision system according to claim 1 wherein at least 30% of the one or more aldehydes present in the vapor are removed from the vapor by the filter. 8. An electronic vapor provision system according to claim 1 wherein at least 50% of the one or more aldehydes present in the vapor are removed from the vapor by the filter. 9. An electronic vapor provision system according to claim 1 wherein after 30 inhalations of vapor have passed through the filter at least 40% of the one or more aldehydes present in the vapor are removed from the vapor by the filter. 10. An electronic vapor provision system according to claim 1 wherein after 30 inhalations of vapor have passed through the filter at least 40% of formaldehyde present in the vapor is removed from the vapor by the filter. 11. An electronic vapor provision system according to claim 1 wherein after 100 inhalations of vapor have passed through the filter at least 40% of formaldehyde present in the vapor is removed from the vapor by the filter. 12. An electronic vapor provision system according to claim 1 wherein after 250 inhalations of vapor have passed through the filter at least 40% of formaldehyde present in the vapor is removed from the vapor by the filter. 13. An electronic vapor provision system according to claim 1 wherein the filter is a resin having polyamine groups bonded to a cross-linked polystyrene matrix. 14. An electronic vapor provision system according to claim 13 wherein the filter is DIAION® CR20.
