What Is In a Vape
This article will explain to you what is in a vape
Electronic cigarettes are electronic products that imitate cigarettes. Although they do not contain tar, they still contain many other substances. Their core components include e-liquid, heating elements, batteries and cartridges. E-liquid is usually a mixture of propylene glycol (PG), vegetable glycerin (VG), nicotine (optional) and edible flavors, and there are many flavors to choose from. Because e-cigarettes are new products, they are often promoted as a substitute for traditional cigarettes, but whether long-term use has an impact on health is still controversial. However, you should still choose regular products when using them, so that the harm to the body has been reduced.
Electronic cigarettes (Vape) usually contain the following core components:
1. E-liquid
E-liquid is the core part of electronic cigarettes. It is the liquid that makes electronic cigarettes produce steam. Its main components are composed of the following four types: Propylene Glycol, PG; Vegetable Glycerin, VG; Nicotine; Flavorings;
It also has many types: 1. Freebase Nicotine: traditional e-liquid, nicotine absorption is slow, suitable for ordinary users; 2. Nicotine Salt: nicotine combined with organic acid, faster absorption, smoother taste, suitable for users with high nicotine demand; 3. Nicotine-Free: does not contain nicotine, only for enjoying taste and steam.
As more users begin to pay attention to its taste, the flavors of e-cigarettes are gradually increasing, such as tobacco flavor (imitation of traditional cigarettes), fruit flavor (such as strawberry, mango, blueberry), dessert flavor (such as cream, chocolate, cake), beverage flavor (such as coffee, cola, milk tea), mint/cool flavor and other different flavors to meet customer needs;
2.Atomizer:
One of the core components of e-cigarettes, it is mainly a device that converts the e-liquid into steam by atomizing the heating coil.
It consists of Coil: Made of resistance wire (such as nickel-chromium alloy, stainless steel, titanium or Kanthal alloy). The resistance wire is wound into a spiral shape and will heat up when powered on; Wicking Material: Made of organic cotton or special fiber materials. Responsible for absorbing the e-liquid and transporting it to the vicinity of the coil; Housing: Protect the coil and oil-conducting cotton, usually made of metal or ceramic. Coil used to heat and atomize the e-liquid.
Its working principle is that when the user presses the switch of the e-cigarette or inhales, the battery will supply power to the coil. The coil heats up and heats the e-liquid in the oil-conducting cotton to the evaporation temperature (usually 100°C to 250°C). After the e-liquid is atomized, it forms steam, which the user inhales through the mouthpiece.
3. Battery:
It provides power to heat the atomizer, allowing it to heat up and atomize the e-liquid to produce steam, which is the power of the e-cigarette:
The battery is matched according to different models of products. When choosing, try to use batteries from big brands to ensure safety and reliability
Common battery models:
18650: 18mm diameter, 65mm length, the most common model;
20700/21700: 20mm or 21mm diameter, 70mm length, larger capacity, suitable for high-power devices;
18350: 18mm diameter, 35mm length, small size, suitable for mini devices;
The capacity of the battery indicates the battery life. The larger the capacity, the longer the use time. Common capacity range: 1000mAh to 5000mAh.
4. Cartridge/tank:
It is a component used to store oil in electronic cigarettes, and is also a key part connecting the heating element and the mouthpiece
The cartridge is a small, replaceable oil storage device, usually used in Pod system electronic cigarettes (a small portable electronic cigarette), with more disposable use, generally 1-3 ml, suitable for daily portable use, and directly discarded after use;
The tank is a larger oil storage device, usually used for box electronic cigarettes (Mod) or advanced electronic cigarette equipment. More suitable for professional smokers, usually 2-6 ml, suitable for long-term use.
5. Mouthpiece:
It is the channel for users to inhale steam, and its material directly affects the user experience and hygiene;
The material of the mouthpiece:
Mainly 1. Plastic: light, low cost, but poor durability; 2. Metal: durable and beautiful, but may conduct heat faster, and may feel cooler when used; 3. Resin/acrylic: beautiful and good insulation, suitable for long-term use; 4. Silicone: soft and comfortable, but less used for mouthpieces.
We need to clean the mouthpiece regularly with warm water to avoid residue affecting the taste. You can also use alcohol for disinfection, but you need to rinse it thoroughly.
Choosing the right mouthpiece material can improve the comfort and hygiene of use, while extending the life of the device.
