What does it mean to not burn when heated?

Heating or burning cigarettes are heated, while ordinary cigarettes are burned. This kind of heating can make the tobacco just release the flavor. In the state of not burning the tobacco, the temperature when ordinary cigarettes burn is generally between 350℃ and 600℃.

Although heat-not-burn smoking devices and electronic cigarettes both have batteries and are electronic products, and the parts that hold e-liquid in e-cigarette pods are also called cartridges, but this cartridge is not that cartridge. The main components of the cartridges of heat-not-burn products are tobacco leaves; the main components of electronic cigarette oil are vegetable glycerin (VG) and propylene glycol (PG).

Characteristics of heat-not-burn tobacco products

It does not burn, provides smokers with nicotine, and has low tar content. Since the heating temperature (below 500°C) is lower than the burning temperature of traditional cigarettes (600-900°C), harmful components, sidestream smoke and environmental smoke (second-hand smoke) produced by the thermal cracking and thermal synthesis of tobacco due to high-temperature combustion are reduced. Release volume is also significantly reduced.

On this basis, the nicotine in the cigarette is released, providing consumers with a certain tobacco characteristic experience. There are three main heating methods for heat-not-burn tobacco products: electric heating, fuel (such as carbon heating) heating, and physical and chemical reaction heating (such as physical crystallization, chemical reaction, etc.). Currently, electric heating and carbon heating are the main ones. , the physical and chemical reaction heating type only has patent protection and no products.
