Aerosol spray is a type of dispensing system which creates an aerosol mist of liquid particles.

This is used with a can or bottle that contains a liquid under pressure.

When the container's valve is opened, the liquid is forced out of a small hole and emerges as an aerosol or mist.

As gas expands to drive out the payload, only some propellant evaporates inside the can to maintain an even pressure.

Outside the can, the droplets of propellant evaporate rapidly, leaving the payload suspended as very fine particles or droplets.

Typical liquids dispensed in this way are insecticides, deodorants and paints.

An atomizer is a similar device that is pressurised by a hand-operated pump rather than by stored gas.
