Do E-Cigarettes Really Need Filter Tips? soyee Xiaoye SPACE Filter-Tip Vape Device

Guide/read

What is the most important thing in the e-cigarette industry? It should be "concentration" and "persistence". Whether it is a powerful brand in the big smoke era, a leading brand in the small smoke era, or a company related to ceramic atomization technology and tobacco oil technology in the supply chain, with its "focus" and "persistence", it is always able to cope calmly and laugh until the end.

In terms of specific product forms, there are also many brands that have been focused and persistent in different aspects. For example, Soyee "Xiaoye" has been obsessed with inserting "filters" into electronic atomization equipment.

Soyee "Xiaoye" is an electronic atomization brand owned by "Shenzhen Zhiye Technology Co., Ltd.", and its own positioning is"Filter-tipped e-cigarette safety advocates"。From the brand name point of view, the general word with "leaf" is basically inextricably linked with tobacco, official team information also confirmed this point: The founding team has been accompanying the tobacco industry for more than ten years with supplier and brand consulting services, and has achieved numerous quality brands, such asChina Golden Central Branch, Chongqing Tianzi, Anhui HuangshanWait. Teams with a tobacco-related background often create products that are very different from the conventional forms in the industry. So what different products will soy leaf bring to users? Soyee Xiaoye's current main products include two series: "F1 Pro" and "SPACE". Today we will start with the more special "SPACE". soyeeIntroduction to SPACE Small? ? ye SPACE series is a small leaf of soyee"Tribute to every unknown exploration"A product of the company can also be regarded as Xiaoye's exploration of core technologies such as PLA filters in the electronic atomization industry. Space toSafe filtration of PLA filtersFor the core drive, equipped withA new generation of ceramic atomization technology, giving products better leak-proof performance through advanced processes, creating a safe and pleasant product experience for users. In terms of tobacco oil, SPACE has adopted a new nicotine equation ratio combination, using nicotine salt with a concentration of 1.7%. The lower concentration of safety experience brings higher satisfaction. In other words, the core of SPACE isPLA filter + nicotine equation ratio。 There is no need to elaborate on the latter. The author speculated that it should be Dr. Xiwu Xing's nicotine-X or similar technology, and PLA filter tips are the core part that Soyee Xiaoye has always advocated. The full name of PLA is "Polylactic acid biobased material", is not only a strategic emerging industry in my country's" 14th Five-Year Plan ", but also an important direction for the development of the international new materials industry. PLA originates from renewable plant resources. Its raw material is lactic acid, which mainly comes from fermentation of starch (such as corn and rice). It is a material derived from plants rather than other materials widely derived from petroleum. It can be fully biodegradable and recycled in nature. It has been unanimously recognized by the industry as the most promising green new "ecological material". PLA polylactic acid can be hydrolyzed by acid or enzymes to produce lactic acid in the human body, and the final products are carbon dioxide and water. It has good biocompatibility and bioabsorbability, and is non-toxic and harmless to the human body. PLA can be traced back to 1932. It was discovered and successfully polymerized into polylactic acid by American polymer chemist Carothers and studied its application in the biomedical field. In 1986, Battle and DuPont began research on the use of PLA as a production and processing technology for daily plastic applications. In 2004, my country built the largest industrial line for the production of degradable PLA resin, increasing its output by 15,000 tons, ranking second in the world. In 2011, Xiaoye's team began to study PLA wire-making and forming technology, and achieved a major breakthrough in PLA wire-making and forming technology in 2017. Until 2019, Xiaoye successfully polymerized new PLA filter materials for e-cigarette filtration. PLA can simply be understood as a new alternative to traditional plastics. It is degradable by itself and comes from plants rather than petroleum. It is widely used in food, medical care, textiles and other fields, making it safer and environmentally friendly. Then the problem comes.Although PLA has many advantages, what benefits will it bring when it is used in electronic atomization products? Why does Soyee Xiaoye insist on putting a filter in the product?# p#pagination title #e# ?Originally, the author also thought that this was just a gimmick and had no substantive significance. After using electronic atomization products for so many years, wouldn't it be fine without filters? Moreover, there is also a saying in the industry regarding the problem of filters, that is, the compromise made because the problem of condensate cannot be solved. But after detailed communication with Soyee Xiaoye, I discovered that the author has become smaller and shorter, the pattern has become smaller, and his vision has become shorter. First of all, filters have a long history in the field of cigarettes. It can be traced back to 1925, when Hungarian Aivaz invented filters made of crumpled paper or crumpled paper and cellulose soft filler, as well as machines for producing such filters. Until 1930, the first cigarette filter using cotton as filter material came out. In 1935, a British machinery manufacturer launched a machine for the production of filter-tipped cigarettes, bringing the production and assembly of filters into the commercial stage. In 1959, my country launched the first filter-tipped cigarette, so now many people can only see cigarettes without filters in film and television works. Until 1980, filter-tipped cigarettes sold well in the world cigarette market, and my country imported cigarette filters for the first time. Cigarette smoke contains particulates, often called tar. Tar contains a large number of chemical components, including 4000 to 5000 species, which are all products of incomplete combustion of tobacco. In addition to tar, cigarette smoke also contains other substances, such as "vapor" or "gas" phases, as well as volatile tobacco-burning substances, such as acetaldehyde and other low-molecular weight components. Other phases in cigarette smoke, such as the "semi-volatile" phase, which includes many combustible substances, are equivalent to particulates and vapor. Cigarette filters can filter smoke components. Although they cannot remove all chemical components, they minimize the harmful components inhaled by smokers and reduce the harm caused by smoking to the human body. Soyee lobular? stores Although electronic atomization products do not contain tar in cigarettes and so many other toxic and harmful chemicals, the atomization core unit includes metals, ceramics and other materials. When cigarette oil is atomized, it will also produce trace amounts of chemicals. Coupled with condensate, a physical barrier that is difficult to eradicate, Soyee Leaf began to pay attention to the filtration system in the field of electronic atomization, wanting to minimize known and potential hazards through "proactive safety" measures. To give a less appropriate example, although clean mountain spring water can be drunk directly, after the mountain spring water is purified through the filtration system, impurities can be minimized and it is more suitable for drinking. With deep industry experience, Soyee Xiaoye realized that the technology of the e-cigarette industry is developing in the direction of "safety" and "comfort". Filter tip technology is a carrier expression to achieve safety protection. Research on safety technology is carried out based on this structure.

Having said that, the author is very helpless, because if the PLA filter is not clearly explained first, it will be difficult to have a correct perspective on Xiaoye's products. Let's get to the main topic. What about the SPACE products that Soyee Xiaoye has so persistently built? soyeeSPACE/Outer Packaging Small? ? ye The outer packaging of the soyee lobular space adopts a silver reflective design that can highlight the sense of technology. The style is simple and there is no product graphics on the front, only the logo and product model. On the back are information such as origin and ingredients, and on the side are the main characteristics of the product-"polylactic acid material","naturally degradable","trapped condensate" and "410mAh battery". This part of the information is actually basically the characteristics of PLA filters. The power of 410mAh is not a special highlight at the moment. This may also give people a misunderstanding. Is the body made of PLA material, or is the core of the soyee leaflets all on the PLA filter?The author always thought that Soyee Xiaoye was just a supply chain company that made filters. It was not until after many detailed communications that I understood that Soyee Xiaoye was an e-cigarette brand. #p#Pagination Title #e#The inside of the package is made of black anti-collision material, with a layer of matte plastic cover at the top, which fills the sense of technology. In terms of content, SPACE is relatively rich. In addition to the manual, tobacco rod, and Type-C charging cord, it also comes with 2 cigarette bombs and 2 boxes of X6 PLA filters. soyeeSPACE/PLA Filter Tip Small? ? ye Since PLA is Soyee's "unique skill", let's first take a look at this filter. It is really different from the filters used in current electronic atomization products. One end of the inner part is made of filamentary PLA material and the other end is a gear-shaped part. The internal grooves may be used to guide flow and prevent condensation and backflow. wearPLAWhen the filter is used, its atomized smoke passes through during the experiencePLAThe adhesion and interception of polylactic acid tow can effectively filter macromolecular particulate substances such as formaldehyde and heavy metals to obtain a smoother and smoother taste. At the same time, it can also intercept condensate and tobacco oil and reduce cleaner steam. soyeeSPACE/Shaft Small? ? ye Let's look at the SPACE tobacco rod. In terms of structure, it is different from the common bomb-changing equipment on the market. SPACE adopts an integrated design, and the cigarette cartridge is "stuffed" into the tobacco rod from the side, thus ensuring the integrity of the overall type. and consistency. The entire tobacco rod adopts gradient color matching, which is very textured and technological. There is an interface with a filter on the top and a Type-C charging interface on the bottom. SPACE's structural design is relatively clever. By pressing the button below the cigarette bomb on the side, the cigarette bomb can be unlocked and the cigarette rod can be ejected. Of course, the prerequisite is to unplug the filter. Otherwise, the cigarette bomb cannot be taken out due to the obstruction of the filter. The internal structure of the cigarette rod is actually not complicated, and people who have used small electrical appliances such as radios and flashlights with batteries will definitely not be unfamiliar with it. However, SPACE applies pressure on the cigarette bomb on the side through springs, and the button below has protrusions and locks with the cigarette bomb. When the button is pressed, the locking structure opens, and the spring will push the cartridge out from the side. Although the structural design here is simple, it is very clever. SPACE's smoke bombs are relatively square in shape and are not much different from conventional smoke bombs in terms of structure. Only a silicone component is installed at the connection between the top and the PLA filter, which may be used to seal and prevent condensation and backflow. SPACE's cigarette bombs are direction-specific. Although it cannot be installed in reverse direction, it still carefully sets an indicating arrow on the cigarette bomb. Insert the cigarette cartridge into the cigarette rod, press it and lock it automatically, and then insert the PLA filter tip to be used normally. soyeeSPACE/Practical Experience Small? ? ye The foregoing introduced so many theoretical things. How does the PLA that Soyee Xiaoye insists on actually perform? It's finally time to reveal it. First of all, in terms of use experience, for smokers, the filter tip does increase the "intimacy" when using it and gives it a more sense of cigarette feeling. At the same time, in terms of resistance to suction, the addition of filters also makes the resistance to suction close to that of cigarettes. In terms of taste, SPACE's overall feeling is relatively concentrated, with a rich, mellow taste and soft taste. Nut tobacco best reflects the advantages of small leaf in tobacco. It tastes fragrant and has a strong throat strike feeling. But for other common flavors, soyee Xiaoye advocates natural restoration, focusing on the true restoration of each flavor. Whether this style can be recognized by the mass consumer market is still unknown and will take time to test. Speaking back to PLA filters, the most intuitive feeling in actual use is that the smoke tends to be drier. It may be the result of the filter absorbing part of the moisture in the smoke. This also shows that PLA does play a practical role in electronic atomization., and also has a certain promotion effect on the taste. #p#Pagination Title #e#soyeeSPACE/Summary Small? ? ye Overall, Soyee Leaf proved through SPACE that filter tip technology is not just a gimmick in electronic atomization products, but has practical application value. SPACE is a differentiated product in terms of device type, structure, taste experience, etc. Good product. The author also believes that with Soyee's technical iteration and optimization updates in tobacco oil, as well as Xiaoye's focus and persistence on PLA filters, Soyee Xiaoye will bring more surprises to users in the future.
