Best answer

The reason why vaping uses some chemical elements as additives is to improve the taste or increase the amount of smoke.

The e-liquid of vaping is composed of organic nicotine salt, vegetable glycerin, flavors and fragrances, propylene glycol and other substances. Some vaping oils add a small amount of ethylene glycol, which can produce refreshing steam at high temperatures and improve the taste. Propylene glycol produces a lot of smoke at high temperatures, increasing the smoke production.

Adding chemical elements to vaping is mainly to meet the physiological needs of smokers and to produce dense smoke, which has a fashionable and cool effect.

Electronic cigarettes use some chemical elements because these chemical elements play an important role in electronic cigarettes, including the following:

1. Nicotine: It is the primary component of electronic cigarettes, and its function is to meet the physiological needs of smokers. Pure nicotine is easy to volatilize and is not resistant to storage, which will damage the stability of the product. Therefore, nicotine salt is generally used as a substitute for nicotine to achieve a stable and slow-release effect.

2. Atomizer: Electronic cigarettes do not have a combustion process and cannot produce smoke like tobacco burning. Without smoke, smoking is boring and ridiculous. The ability of a nebulizer to produce a dense cloud of smoke defines its recreational properties.

In addition, e-cigarette liquid also contains harmful substances such as formaldehyde, acetaldehyde, nitrosamines, and heavy metals. These substances are not inherent in e-cigarettes themselves, but added during the production process. Practice has proved that the smoke of electronic cigarettes has been detected to contain many harmful substances, such as formaldehyde, acetaldehyde, nitrosamines, heavy metals, etc.
