Physical and Chemical Characterization of Aerosols Produced from Commercial Nicotine Salt-Based E-Liquids.

ABSTRACT: Nicotine salt e-liquids are widely used in pod-style and disposable electronic nicotine delivery systems (ENDS). Studying the physical and chemical properties of their emissions can inform their toxicological impact. A prior companion study reported the harmful and potentially harmful constituents (HPHCs) and aerosol particle sizes produced from laboratory-made nicotine salt and freebase nicotine e-liquids to assess the effects of varying nicotine salts and nicotine protonation. This study reports the HPHCs and aerosol particle sizes for commercial brand nicotine salt and freebase nicotine formulations. Several tobacco, fruit, mint, and menthol flavored e-liquids of varying nicotine concentrations were tested with open and closed pod-style ENDS and a disposable ENDS. The nicotine yields sh
