Abstract:
The disclosure provides methods and compositions for providing shatter formulations taking the form of crystalline polymorphs, where methods of preparation include preparing tetrahydrocannabinol acid (THCA) powder followed by decarboxylating THCA and removal of terpenes.

Claim (Index 14):
A solid phase pre-formulation method for preparing a protoshatter formulation, wherein the protoshatter formulation is made from crystalline THCA powder, the method comprising:\n (i) Adding crystalline THCA powder and raw distillate to a DAC cup; (ii) Chilling the DAC cup to below zero degrees; (iii) Mixing the crystalline THCA powder with the raw distillate that are in the DAC cup using a DAC mixer, yielding a powder with small chunks; (iv) Repeating said chilling of the DAC cup and repeating said mixing, wherein repeating the chilling and mixing yields a homogeneous fluffy powder; (v) Adding a terpene blend to the DAC cup to yield a dispersion of the terpene blend and the homogeneous fluffy powder, wherein the dispersion takes the form of a paste; (vi) Loading the paste into a syringe, wherein the syringe is operably linked with a syringe needle, heating the barrel of the syringe to 50-80 degrees C., and heating the needle to 100-200 degrees C.; (vii) Dispensing the contents of the syringe to a sheet of flexible fabric, wherein the flexible fabric is positioned under the needle outlet, wherein the contents of the syringe is extruded in the form of long strings (extruded contents) onto the flexible fabric; (viii) Applying heat to the flexible fabric resulting in warming of the flexible fabric and in warming of the extruded contents, wherein warming is with a hotplate, followed by repeated folding over of the extruded contents; (ix) Compressing the repeatedly folded over extruded contents to produce a slab, wherein the slab is allowed to achieve room temperature, and heating with a heat gun to yield a transparent amber glass.
