A container (100) for an aerosol-generating device comprises: a tubular compartment (102), comprising a liquid compound source, the tubular compartment being formed from a polymeric material; and, at least one seal (104, 106), formed from a polymeric material, for sealing the tubular compartment. The ratio of [thermal conductivity per unit weight in the radial direction of the polymeric material] to the [thermal conductivity per unit weight in the longitudinal direction of the polymeric material] is greater than about 2.. In an alternative, the ratio of [thermal conductivity per unit weight in the longitudinal direction of the polymeric material] to the [thermal conductivity per unit weight in the radial direction of the polymeric material] is above about 2. The invention also relates to an aerosol-generating system comprising a device for use with the container. |
