Nicotine salts, or Nic Salts, are one of the newer ingredients of vaping liquid and represent the latest in vaping science, having become a phenomenon around the world. This innovative formulation provides the most popular vape flavours with a more intense vaping experience that is smoother, delivering improved satisfaction.
WHAT ARE NIC SALTS?
Nic Salts or nicotine salts (also scientifically known as protonated nicotine) is an innovative salt-based nicotine form different from the conventional free-based nicotine previously used in most popular vape flavours. These two forms of nicotine differ in that free-based nicotine is less stable than Nic Salts. Both forms of nicotine have previously been used as ingredients of vaping liquid, however Nic Salts have been shown to provide a more pleasant experience to vapers than free-based nicotine1.
WHERE ARE NIC SALTS USED?
Nic Salts are found in our eLiquid flavours along with Propylene Glycol (PG), Vegetable Glycerine (VG) and water, that help carry the flavour and nicotine. In closed system vaping devices such as the Vuse Pod, the plug and play flavour pods carry the eLiquid flavours, all with Nic Salts formulation. In open systems vaping devices, you would find the Nic Salts in the vape liquid flavours used to refill the device’s tank.
When it comes to ingredients of vaping liquid, Vuse eLiquid flavours are made of high-quality pharmaceutical and food grade ingredients. Every ingredient is assessed and each batch of vape liquid flavours is tested to ensure its traceability.
