Electronic cigarettes belong to electronic and electrical products, and after Brexit, products entering the UK market need to do UKCA certification, which is a mandatory certification. Manufacturers can seek tests from qualified third-party laboratories to prove that the product meets the relevant standards, and issue a certificate of conformity AoC, which is the basis for the manufacturer's self-declaration DoC.
The DoC needs to contain key parameter information such as the manufacturer's name and address, the model number of the product, etc.
The RoHS directive refers to the "Directive on Limiting the Use of Certain Harmful Ingredients in Electronic and Electrical Equipment", which needs to detect the presence of harmful chemical components in electronic cigarette oil.
Routine chemical test items of electronic cigarette oil:
1, propylene glycol Propylene glycol;
2, glycerin Vegetable glycerin;
3, nicotine;
4, diethylene glycol;
5, nitrosamines Nitrosamines;
6, diacetyl (2,3-butanedione) Diacetyl;
7, phthalates (17m);
8, heavy metal (As, Pb, Hg, Cr, Ni, Cd etc)
