E-liquid viscosity

The Absorption performance of vapes has always been concerned. Absorption does not directly affect the taste and fever. It can even lead to burning, which makes the vape produce a disgusting taste. The most important influence on the e-liquid is the viscosity of the e-liquid. In the case, the higher the viscosity, the worse the Absorption property.
There are several raw materials that affect the viscosity of e-liquid. However, except for VG and PG, the influence of other raw materials on the viscosity of e-liquid is very low:
Glycerin (VG): VG is highly hygroscopic, very viscous and has poor fluidity. The main role is to produce smoke. VG plays the most important role in e-liquid viscosity, with high VG content and high viscosity of e-liquid.
Propylene glycol (PG): Common drugs and food additives. It has hygroscopicity, slightly sweetness, colorless and odorless transparent liquid, and has good fluidity. PG is one of the basic components of e-liquid. Its main function is to act as a carrier for flavors, enhance the taste of e-liquid, generate a small amount of mist after heating, and have a certain sense of throat, but also have diluted glycerin, lowering e -liquid viscosity, which increases the effect of Absorption.
Fragrance: The role of essence in e-liquid is very important. The proportion and mix of different flavors determine the e-liquid flavor. Because the source and preparation method of different flavors are different, their viscosity is also different.
Additives: including sweeteners, sour agents, throating agents, deionized water, etc. The main role is to improve the taste of the e-liquid to make up for the lack of flavor.
Effect of e-liquid viscosity
The effect of e-liquid viscosity on the use of vape is huge. The viscosity of e-liquid directly affects the Absorption performance of vape, and the Absorption performance directly affects the experience of vapes. For example, vape has higher heat and tastes poor. . More serious will cause the electronic cigarette to dry and directly damage the electronic cigarette.
Different vapes have different viscosity requirements for e-liquid. Under normal circumstances, high-power vapes do not require too much viscosity. For oil-storing nebulizers, 80% VG is acceptable. The atomizer requirements are even lower. 100% VG can be used normally, but it is slightly slower when adding e-liquid.
The requirements for low-power electronic cigarettes are relatively high. They usually require e-liquid within 60% VG. The too high viscosity e-liquid can easily cause the electronic cigarette to dry out, which may directly destroy the electronic cigarette or smoke. bomb.
