This study was designed to determine e-liquid constituents in the atmosphere where e-vapor products are used. The objective was to measure levels of nicotine, propylene glycol (PG), glycerol, menthol and suspended particulate in a room where e-vapor...

Two years ago, at the CORESTA Congress in Brighton, the authors presented a paper on the effect of heating rate on the evolution of formaldehyde during cellulose pyrolysis. Since then the work has been expanded to include kinetic data on three other...

As shown in the previous paper, A kinetic study of cellulose I., the mechanism for the production of the pyrolysis products observed, formaldehyde, hydroxyacetaldehyde, CO, CO2 and tar, involves competing reactions. The pattern of the values...

A sequential sampling, multiple channel GC technique was developed in this laboratory for intrapuff smoke analysis. In the system, the incoming smoke is divided into four streams that flow through four sampling channels. Four smoke samples are...

A real time fast evolved gas analysis/Fourier Transform infrared (FAST EGA/FTIR) method was developed and applied to study the gas phase component evolution of cellulose pyrolysis. Experiments were conducted under different pyrolytic conditions....
