Nicotine has many other applications that are just as notable, if not more so. It has also been found to be effective in treating conditions like ADHD, depression and anxiety.
Pure liquid nicotine is an extract from the tobacco plant. But what is Nicotine EP, and why should you care? Here's everything you need to know about this unique product.
What is nicotine?
The extractive nicotine comes from the tobacco plant. Its effects were discovered in the early 16th century by Paracelsus. Jean Nicot then introduced nicotine to European medicine, and it was named after him.
Subsequently, researchers found that nicotine has a range of impacts on the body. Nicotine has been shown to help patients maintain focus and a sense of calm, as well as improve cognitive capacity. Studies conducted over the years have found that nicotine is successful in treating patients with ADHD, HIV, Down Syndrome, Tourette Syndrome, obesity and other disorders.
In addition, nicotine can be found in a variety of foods such as eggplants, potatoes and tomatoes.
What is pure liquid nicotine and how it’s made?
Nicotine’s chemical formula is C10H14N2.
Nicotine in its liquid form is far purer than that utilised in conventional cigarettes or other goods. It undergoes a filtering process to eliminate any impurities and emerges in a clean, clear liquid.
From the distillation process to packaging, there is one vulnerable moment where it comes into contact with air. This causes oxidation which turns the liquid into a light yellow at first and then into a light brown after more time passes.
What colour is pure liquid nicotine and why is it so important?
Pure nicotine is a colourless and odourless liquid with an oily consistency. However, it's also highly reactive. When exposed to oxygen, it oxidises and changes colour into light yellow and as time passes into brown. It also releases a strong smell of tobacco.
Often, this aspect is not considered and nicotine gets exposed to oxygen, causing the deterioration of nicotine quality. Therefore, manufacturers can produce low-quality products even if they are made with high-grade ingredients.
What does EP stand for?
The European Pharmacopoeia (Ph. Eur.) is a single reference work for the quality control of medicines and their active pharmaceutical ingredients. The official standards it contains provide a scientific basis for quality control during the entire life cycle of a product.
For nicotine to be classified as EP/UPS it needs to meet the quality requirements and have a purity degree of at least 91.0%.
Nicton Nicotine EP has a purity degree of at least 99.97%, making it the perfect ingredient for high-quality nicotine bases.
Is pure liquid nicotine dangerous?
Pure, undiluted nicotine is extremely poisonous and shouldn't be consumed in concentrated form. That's why, when used in e-liquids, it has to be diluted with propylene glycol (PG) or vegetable glycerin (VG).
How to safely handle pure liquid nicotine?
Before filling the bottles it's critical to make sure that everything is clean. Ensuring a safe and hygienic work environment is especially significant because any residue could contaminate your bases.
Use the right equipment, have employees wear protective gear and perform quality checks for every batch to prevent contamination of the final product.
What is pure liquid nicotine used for?
Nicotine is most commonly used in the form of pure liquid nicotine EP to create nicotine bases for E-Liquid, which are then used in E-Cigarettes, vape devices, cigs, pouches, nicotine plasters, and other products.
Nicotine is one of the most significant ingredients used to create nicotine bases, which also include vegetable glycerin and propylene glycol. The quality of pure nicotine is extremely important, but don't forget about the other ingredients as they all influence the final product.
