For e-liquid manufacturers, nicotine formulation is the foundation of products that satisfy customer expectations. One of the most popular and versatile options available today is nicotine dilution, often referred to as nicotine base. These dilutions combine pure nicotine with a carrier liquid, such as Propylene Glycol (PG) or Vegetable Glycerin (VG) to create a ready-to-use e-liquid base.
In this article, we’ll explore nicotine dilutions and how they can benefit your e-liquid manufacturing process.
What Are Nicotine Dilutions (NicBases)?
Nicotine dilutions, commonly known as NicBases, are pre-mixed solutions that blend pure nicotine with Propylene Glycol (PG) and Vegetable Glycerin (VG) in specific ratios. These bases are ready to use, simplifying the manufacturing process for e-liquid producers by eliminating the challenges of handling pure nicotine. Chemnovatic’s NicBase uses PureNic 99+, the purest nicotine available, combined with pharmaceutical-grade PG and VG, ensuring high quality and safety standards.
Our range of NicBases, NicSalt Bases, and the innovative Nic&Salt Hybrid Bases ensures that manufacturers have access to solutions tailored to their specific product requirements.
Nicotine Dilutions – characteristics
Nicotine dilutions & stronger throat hit
Nicotine dilutions are known for their more intense throat hit compared to nicotine salts. This characteristic makes them particularly appealing to ex-smokers or regular vapers who prefer a more distinct sensation similar to that of smoking tobacco.
Nicotine dilutions & customizable nicotine strength
One of the key benefits of nicotine dilutions is the ability to offer a wide range of nicotine strengths. Depending on the PG/VG ratio and the desired intensity, manufacturers can create e-liquids with nicotine concentrations ranging from low (3 mg/ml) to very high (up to 200 mg/ml).
Nicotine dilutions & neutral impact on flavor
Pure nicotine-based dilutions typically have a minimal impact on the overall flavor of the e-liquid, which is a critical consideration for manufacturers looking to deliver rich and complex flavor profiles. This makes nicotine bases an ideal choice for vapers who want the nicotine experience without compromising on taste.
Nicotine dilutions & control of consistency and quality
Chemnovatic’s NicBase products are manufactured under stringent quality control measures in a state-of-the-art facility in Poland. By controlling the production of both nicotine and carrier liquids (PG/VG) in-house, Chemnovatic ensures that every batch of nicotine base meets high standards of consistency, purity, and safety.
Understanding PG/VG Ratios in Nicotine Dilutions
The Propylene Glycol (PG) / Vegetable Glycerin (VG) ratio in nicotine bases plays a crucial role in determining the vaping experience. PG is responsible for carrying flavor and delivering a throat hit, while VG provides vapor production and a smoother feel.
- Higher PG ratios (e.g., 70/30 PG/VG) are often favored by vapers who seek a stronger throat hit, especially those transitioning from smoking to vaping.
- Higher VG ratios (e.g., 70/30 VG/PG) are ideal for cloud chasers who prefer a smoother experience with larger vapor production.
Chemnovatic offers nicotine dilutions with varying PG/VG ratios to suit different preferences and manufacturing needs, ensuring that e-liquid makers can cater to a wide variety of vapers.
