Abstract

The present disclosure relates to the field of atomization applications. More specifically, the disclosure relates to an atomization core, comprising a core substrate and a heating body on the core substrate, wherein the core substrate is made of a dense material (e.g., dense ceramics), with e-liquid transferring perforations distributed in the substrate; the diameter of the e-liquid transferring perforations is 1-250 μm; the wall spacing between two adjacent e-liquid transferring perforations is less than 500 μm; and the porosity of the dense material is less than 30%.
