Then you can share this in your thread.
100%VG absolutely cares about safety concerns, but he likes to have his facts straight before voicing them.
- The study was made on Clay Ceramics. This is not what we use for vaping ceramics. There is no Calcium Oxide or Titanium Dioxide in a Vaporesso cCell. There is Nickel and Chromium, but I don't have the percentages. Please see the Components chart below. The two ceramics are different!!!
- The study says " Four (4) types of test samples (with particle sizes ranges of 45–63 μm, 63–90 μm, 90–125 μm, and 125–250 μm) were prepared", "compacted", and "fired to 1,300°C." The Vaporesso sintering process is stated as 1000°C. Vaporesso had stated that the flow size between the sintered particles is 12 μm, so the powered particles used in a cCell are smaller than those in the study, and the finished product is therefore less brittle due to more surface area being bonded together. Also, please see this.
- The study says "The samples were first heated in a furnace to 1,000°C at the rate of 10°C min−1. A holding time of 30 min was then applied to the samples before quenching (cold-shocking) them into a container of water that was maintained at 5.0°C." This is ridiculously far beyond any vaping conditions!!!
- The Vaporesso Ceramic is wrapped with two sheets of Organic Cotton and encased in a metal shell that is inside the Head's outer casing. The cotton helps to protect the ceramic against shocks (among other things), and the inner metal shell holding the ceramic has a Silicon Washer that is about 1-1.5mm thick on top, which can also act as a shock absorber. The wrapped cotton extends below the ceramic and acts as a padding below the ceramic, which helps to prevent shorts, but also acts as a shock absorber. Safety was an integral part of the cCell design.
The composition of the study ceramics and the Vaporesso ceramics are different enough that they should
not be compared. And even if they weren't, the extreme temperature conditions of the study make its findings invalid for a vaping comparison.
Now, get something that applies to vaping conditions (even extreme dry hits), using the same materials, and report that.
I will, of course, update this information if/when I get the composition of the IJoy ceramic being used.
