EVAP SG Report


E-Vapour Product Sub Group

Scope:

1)To identify areas of scientific research and conduct studies that will

characterize liquids, e-vapour product emissions, and device

properties and performance

2)To develop and publish methods and guides

3)To organize and conduct periodic proficiency/collaborative studies

of identified constituents in liquids and/or e-vapour product aerosol

EVAP SG Report


Carbonyl Aerosol

Method Selection: HPLC with DNPH

Study Protocol

➢ Harmonized Device: Aspire Tank and Evolv DNA power supply

➢ Compounds included: formaldehyde and acetaldehyde

➢ Three e-liquids, unflavored, tobacco and menthol

➢ Samples fortified at three levels (0, 15, 25 and 35 mg/ml) immediately before

analysis

➢ Aerosol samples collected using 55/3/30 CORESTA CRM 81puffing

➢ Collected ~300mg of aerosol per liquid and spiking level, in triplicate

12

EVAP SG Report


Carbonyl Aerosol

Why use fortified e-liquids?

➢ We expected the native production of formaldehyde and acetaldehyde

to be both low and variable in the un-spiked aerosol, based on pre-

study work.

➢ Formaldehyde and acetaldehyde added to e-liquids will transfer into

the aerosol, based on pre-study work.

➢ Adding a known amount of formaldehyde and acetaldehyde to the

native amount produced by each device should improve the

consistency of measurements and correct for device to device

differences

EVAP SG Report


Carbonyl Aerosol

✓ Each lab reported aerosol mass, formaldehyde and

acetaldehyde

✓ Aerosol formaldehyde and acetaldehyde results reported in

mg/gram of aerosol.

✓ Formaldehyde showed a linear increase in all labs.

✓ Acetaldehyde showed linear response, except for lab 4. Some

labs reported low values for the stock spiking solution.

EVAP SG Report


Carbonyl Aerosol

Average transfer from the liquid to the aerosol for formaldehyde and

acetaldehyde was ~65%

Several labs reported issues with the acetaldehyde standard (low) and either

corrected or used an alternate source. Not all labs verified the spiking

solutions.
