Benefits of technology

The patent aims to prevent harmful effects on the user's health caused by inhaling propylene glycol. The technical effect of this patent text is to provide a safer and more tolerable user experience through the use of a propylene glycol inhalant.

Problems solved by technology

In particular, the presence of propylene glycol, generally used as vaporizable excipient together with the vegetal glycerol and with the water for diluting nicotine, is generally problematic since it is a very hygroscopic substance.
However, the presence of propylene glycol in the solution can lead to a series of negative effects for the user, such as in particular the appearance of sensitization and / or allergies.
Other side effects have been also recorded resulting from inhalation of propylene glycol, such as respiratory irritation, nausea, dizziness, rapid heartbeat and sweating.

[0033]The liquid composition for electronic cigarettes comprises:[0034]1,3-propanediol 74-98%;[0035]water 1.5-8.5%;[0036]flavourings 3-8%.

[0037]The composition according to the present invention achieves the scope of providing a liquid composition for electronic cigarettes comprising only substances of natural origin.

[0038]According to an advantageous aspect of the invention, the liquid composition for electronic cigarettes is easy to obtain from substances of natural origin.

[0039]The natural glycol 1,3-propanediol is, in fact, the result of a biologic processing which starts from products of natural origin.

[0040]Moreover, the process for obtaining the natural glycol 1,3-propanediol is renewable and sustainable from the ecologic point of view, giving clear advantages in terms of saving energy resources and respect of the environment.

[0041]An important feature of the present invention concerns the non-irritating and non-sensitizing characteristics of natural glycol 1,3-propanediol, w...

Abstract

The liquid composition for electronic cigarettes includes water, a natural glycol, glycerol, natural flavorings and possibly nicotine. The natural glycol is composed of 1,3-propanediol, obtained through bioprocessing of corn sugars.

Description

TECHNICAL FIELD[0001]The present invention concerns a liquid composition for electronic cigarettes.BACKGROUND ART[0002]It has been known for a long time that electronic smoking substitutive devices are used, commonly known as electronic cigarettes, enabling the user to inhale a substance which emulates the flavour of the traditional secondary products of the tobacco, but which do not produce any flame or smoke. The inhalable substance, in the form of vapour, may contain nicotine or not, in addition to a suitable flavouring. In practice, electronic cigarettes make the user feel a sensation similar to the one provided by traditional smoking products, such as cigars and cigarettes, but they are potentially less harmful to health as there is no combustion.[0003]The electronic cigarettes generally contain a rechargeable electric battery, an atomizer powered by a battery and a container for the liquid to be vaporized placed in contact with the atomizer. When the atomizer is activated, by ...
