Why nicotine salt is the next revolutionary thing in the
e-cigarette industry? Today we will talk about the nicotine salt.
First question, what's
salt nic? Nicotine salt is the form of nicotine in tobacco leaves. Unlike nicotine, which is commonly used in e-juice, these salts are not just nicotine, they are compounds containing nicotine and other organic ingredients. It may be combined with one or more chemicals in tobacco, but the result is the same - formed a more stable molecule. The nicotine form commonly used in e-juice is called "free base" nicotine. This form of nicotine is not attached to any other substance and is generally considered to be preferable to steam and other uses, because it is a "volatile" (easily evaporated) form of nicotine. In fact, the tobacco industry is working hard to increase the amount of "free base" nicotine in cigarettes. This is a major factor contributing to the success of Marlboro cigarettes, because Philip Morris is a pioneer in this successful method.
Through many different formulations of the experiment, the researchers found that the specific
nicotine salt was actually more effective than the free base nicotine e-juice. They called this finding "out of the blue" and the test of blood nicotine levels obtained by users confirmed this result. One of the key ingredients is benzoic acid, which is added to control the formation of specific nicotine salts in e-cigarette oil. By considering the reactions that take place at the evaporation temperature, they can make a smoked oil containing nicotine salts. When inhaled, it still gives you plenty of nicotine available. The additional benefit is the effect of the acid on the pH of the e-juice (whether it is acidic or alkaline). In general, higher pH results in more free base nicotine in smoke or steam, but it also makes the final mixture more difficult to breathe.
Streamed-nicotine salt smoke oil is not like ordinary
electronic cigarette oil. If you pick up a bottle of high
nicotine salt e-juice and evaporate from an adjustable-pressure box and a low-resistance atomizer device, you may get a rather unpleasant nicotine shock. However, the nicotine salt smoke oil can also have a very low dose. Whether it is more effective than normal nicotine at a lower dose, there is no definitive conclusion.
Nicotine salt
e-juice is mainly used for low power equipment. JUUL is a good example of an ideal device for nicotine salt. It is compact, low-power output, basically resembles an elaborately made simulated cigarette.
Pod kits are ideal for nicotine salt, but you can also use more traditional, easy-to-refill equipment. A basic pen-type electronic cigarette can provide enough power to obtain a satisfactory vape experience from high nicotine salt blended cigarette oil.
The biggest advantage here is that for e-cigarette beginners, they will get the most benefit from more efficient nicotine absorption and devices that do not require overly complex. If you have a high-powered device, you can also get nicotine in low-level nicotine salt. It is not clear whether this is significantly better than regular nicotine smoke at the same nicotine level, because one of the biggest benefits of using
nic salt is that it can comfortably inhale higher levels of nicotine.
