Filament Temperature Control

Objective

  • Identify the filament temperature of the cartridge for a range of puffing condition and voltage
  • Define the optimal temperature window to avoid degradation of formulated concentrate
Temperature-voltage correlation provides the safest vaping condition of specific product for desired puff profile
HPHCs in Aerosol (S-XXX Formulated Concentrate)

Objective

  • Identification of any biproduct formation (HPHCs) in aerosol due to terpene degradation
  • Estimation of the terpene composition in the aerosol to ensure user satisfaction
Aerosol sample does not show any additional compound in Q3 scan, which rules out the possibility of any HPHCs formation
Variation in monoterpenes content was observed in aerosol

Objective

  • Identification of any biproduct formation (HPHCs) in aerosol due to cannabinoid degradation
  • Estimation of potency transfer efficiency in vapor
Degradation of THC was found in vaping at high power
Aerosol composition is in agreement with concentrate at 7.5W vaping
Heavy Metal Ion in Aerosol (S-XXX Formulated concentrate)

Objective: Identification of heavy metal leaching in formulated concentrate or aerosol due to vaping

All the heavy metals were found to be well below the acceptable limit
No additional metal ions were found in the aerosol, which indicates that the cartridge does not leach anything into the oil
