Learn About Nicotine Salts

What are the different names for nic salts?

Nic salts are known by a number of different names, but each typically refers to the same thing: an e-liquid containing salt nicotine, rather than freebase nicotine.

Here is a list of terms people often use when referring to nic salts:

  • nic salt
  • salt nic
  • salt nicotine
  • nicotine salts
  • bar salts
  • puff bar salts
  • salted nicotine
  • salt e-liquids

Nicotine salts, often abbreviated as “nic salts,” are a form of nicotine used in vaping. They differ from the more commonly known freebase nicotine, which has been the standard in tobacco products like cigarettes.

  • Chemical Structure: Nic salts are created by adding benzoic acid to nicotine. This process changes the chemical structure of nicotine, making it more stable and less harsh when inhaled. This is particularly beneficial for those who find freebase nicotine too harsh on their throat.
  • Absorption: One of the key advantages of nic salts is that they are absorbed into the bloodstream more quickly than freebase nicotine. This results in a quicker and more intense nicotine hit, which is similar to the experience of smoking a traditional cigarette. This can be especially appealing to people who are trying to switch from smoking to vaping.
  • Usage: Nic salts are usually used in lower-powered vaping devices like pod systems. They are not typically used in high-powered devices because they can deliver too much nicotine too quickly.
  • Flavour: Many users report that vaping with nic salts provides a smoother taste and better flavour compared to freebase nicotine. This is because the lower temperatures required for vaporizing nic salts help preserve the flavour of the e-liquid.
  • Nicotine Strengths: Nic salts are available in higher nicotine strengths than what’s typically found in freebase nicotine e-liquids. This is because the added benzoic acid makes higher concentrations of nicotine more palatable and less harsh to inhale.
  • Suitability: They are particularly suitable for new vapers and those who are trying to quit smoking, as they provide a more satisfying nicotine hit and can curb cravings more effectively.

Nic salt shots are 10ml bottles of pure salt nicotine (diluted into a carrier oil such as PG or VG) that can be added into e-liquids to boost their nicotine strength. They are usually added into shortfill e-liquids, which are zero nicotine e-liquids designed for high wattage devices and sub ohm coils.

Nic salt shots differ to standard nic shots as they contain a different form of nicotine known as salt nicotine. Salt nicotine is typically blended with a natural acid (such as benzoic acid) that makes the nicotine more bioavailable and easier for your body to absorb, which means nicotine cravings can be satisfied with less juice.

The question of whether salt nic (nicotine salts) is “better” for you than freebase nicotine in vaping is complex and depends on various factors, including individual preferences and the context of “better.” Here are some key points to consider:

  • Harshness and Concentration: Nicotine salts are generally smoother and less harsh on the throat compared to freebase nicotine at similar concentrations. This can be more comfortable for some users, especially those who are new to vaping or are transitioning from smoking cigarettes.
  • Nicotine Absorption: Nicotine salts are absorbed into the bloodstream faster than freebase nicotine. This means they can deliver a quicker, more intense nicotine hit, which can be more satisfying for some, particularly for those looking to replicate the sensation of smoking.
  • Health Considerations: There’s no clear evidence to suggest that nicotine salts are inherently healthier or safer than freebase nicotine. Both forms of nicotine carry health risks, primarily because nicotine is an addictive substance. The health risks associated with vaping, in general, are still being studied, but it is widely accepted that vaping is less harmful than smoking traditional cigarettes.
  • Addiction Potential: Because nicotine salts can provide higher concentrations of nicotine with less irritation, there is a potential risk for higher addiction, especially for new users or those who were not previously heavy smokers.
  • Individual Preferences: Some users prefer the smoother experience of nicotine salts, particularly those who find high concentrations of freebase nicotine too harsh. Others might prefer the sensation and experience of vaping freebase nicotine as it replicates the tactile senesation of smoking a real combusible cigarette.

Ultimately, the choice between nicotine salts and freebase nicotine should be based on personal preference, desired experience, and consideration of the potential health risks. It’s also important to consider the context of use, such as whether you’re trying to quit smoking or looking for a particular vaping experience. As with any nicotine product, it’s advisable to be aware of the risks of nicotine addiction and to use such products responsibly.

You can’t buy nic salt e-liquid in 100ml bottles ready to vape, as UK law prohibits the sale of nicotine containing liquids in bottles larger than 10ml.

However, if you are looking for nic salts in larger shortfill bottles, then BEAR Pro MAX 75ml vape liquids are the perfect solution! They contain a zero nicotine 75ml bottle with 35ml of diluted flavour concentrate inside, with four 10ml nic salt shots included in the box that can be added directly into the shortfill bottle. Once combined, the overall strength to 10mg/ml, and is available in 10 delicious flavours for every palette.

The primary differences between salt nic (nicotine salts) and pure nicotine, often referred to as freebase nicotine, in vaping are in their chemical composition, the way they are experienced by the user, and their usage in different types of vaping devices. Here’s a detailed breakdown:

Chemical Composition:

  • Freebase Nicotine: This is the purest form of nicotine and is the standard form used in cigarettes and many e-liquids. It’s called “freebase” because it is in its basic (alkaline) form, having been freed from its salt state. Freebase nicotine is more volatile and is absorbed more slowly into the body compared to nicotine salts.
  • Nicotine Salts: Nicotine salts are formed when nicotine is combined with certain acids. This process creates a more stable compound that is less harsh to inhale at high strengths. The most common acid used to create nicotine salts is benzoic acid, which helps to lower the pH level of the nicotine solution, resulting in a smoother throat hit.

Absorption and Sensation:

  • Freebase Nicotine: Freebase nicotine is typically harsher on the throat, especially at higher concentrations. Its absorption into the bloodstream is slower compared to nicotine salts, making it less efficient in delivering nicotine to the body.
  • Nicotine Salts: Nicotine salts are absorbed faster into the bloodstream, closely mimicking the rapid absorption of nicotine from traditional cigarettes. This quick absorption can provide a more satisfying hit for smokers trying to switch to vaping. They are also smoother and less irritating to the throat, allowing for higher nicotine concentrations without the harshness.

Nicotine Concentrations:

  • Freebase Nicotine: It is usually available in lower nicotine strengths compared to nicotine salts. High-strength freebase nicotine can be too harsh on the throat for most users.
  • Nicotine Salts: They allow for hig her concentrations of nicotine (often up to 50 mg/mL or even higher) while maintaining a smooth inhale, making them suitable for heavy smokers or those seeking a strong nicotine hit.

User Preference:

  • Freebase Nicotine: Preferred by those who enjoy a strong throat hit and using high-power devices.
  • Nicotine Salts: Ideal for smokers transitioning to vaping who need a higher nicotine concentration to satisfy cravings, and for those who prefer a smoother vaping experience.

Yes, you can buy nicotine salts (nic salts) in the UK. The vaping market in the UK offers a wide range of vaping products, including e-liquids containing nicotine salts. However, there are specific regulations you should be aware of:

  • Regulations (TPD and TRPR): In the UK, the sale of nicotine salts and other vaping products is governed by the Tobacco and Related Products Regulations (TRPR), which is the UK’s implementation of the EU’s Tobacco Products Directive (TPD). These regulations ensure standardisation and safety in the manufacture and sale of vaping products.
  • Nicotine Strength Limit: Both TPD and TRPR restrict the maximum nicotine strength in e-liquids, including nicotine salts, to 20mg/mL. This limit is in place to ensure user safety and to reduce the risk of nicotine overdose.
  • Bottle Size Limitation: Under TPD and TRPR, e-liquid bottles containing nicotine, including nicotine salts, cannot exceed 10ml in volume. This regulation is a measure to limit the amount of nicotine being purchased at any one time.
  • Availability: Nicotine salts are widely available in the UK in various flavours and strengths, up to the legal limit of 20mg/mL. You can find them in vape shops, online vaping stores, and some other retail outlets that sell vaping products.
  • Age Restriction: The sale of nicotine salts and vaping products is restricted to individuals over the age of 18 in the UK.
  • Quality and Safety Standards: Under TRPR, e-liquids sold in the UK, including those with nicotine salts, must meet certain quality and safety standards. Manufacturers and importers must provide detailed information about their products, including ingredients and emissions, and ensure child-proof and tamper-evident packaging.
  • Health Warnings and Ingredient Bans: E-liquids must carry health warnings and comply with restrictions on certain ingredients, as stipulated by TRPR.

When purchasing nicotine salts or any vaping product in the UK, it’s important to ensure that the product complies with TRPR regulations. This not only ensures compliance with the law but also assures a certain level of product safety and quality. Remember, nicotine is an addictive substance, and vaping products should be used responsibly.

The perception that nicotine salts (nic salts) taste better than traditional freebase nicotine in e-liquids can be attributed to several factors:

  • Lower pH Level: Nicotine salts are formed by adding an acid (like benzoic acid) to nicotine, which lowers the pH level of the e-liquid. A lower pH results in a smoother throat hit, which many users find more pleasant. This smoothness can enhance the overall taste experience, as it reduces the harshness often associated with higher concentrations of freebase nicotine.
  • Flavour Preservation: Due to the chemical nature of nicotine salts, they typically require lower temperatures to vaporise. This lower temperature can help in preserving the flavours of the e-liquid, as some delicate flavour compounds can degrade or change character at higher temperatures. Therefore, the flavours in nic salt e-liquids might come across as more vibrant or authentic.
  • Improved Nicotine Delivery: Nicotine salts are absorbed by the body more efficiently than freebase nicotine. This efficient delivery can provide a more satisfying experience, potentially making the flavours feel more enjoyable or intense due to the enhanced nicotine satisfaction.
  • Reduced Bitterness and Harshness: Freebase nicotine, especially at higher strengths, can impart a certain level of bitterness and harshness to the vape, which can overshadow or alter the flavour of the e-liquid. Nicotine salts, being smoother, reduce this harshness, allowing the true flavours of the e-liquid to shine through without being masked by the sensation of the nicotine.
  • User Perception and Experience: Taste is subjective, and individual preferences vary widely. Some users might find that the smoother throat hit and the subtle differences in flavour delivery make nic salts more appealing to their taste buds.

It’s important to note that while many users find nic salts to offer a better taste, this is not universal. The preference for nic salts or freebase nicotine will depend on individual tastes and the type of vaping experience a person is looking for.

Nic salts are fine for use in regular vapes, and can be vaped at lower temperatures compared to other forms of e-liquid making them ideal in lower powered devices with higher resistance coils.

Nic salts work well in a number of devices, such as;

  • Vape pods
  • Vape pens
  • E-cigarettes
  • Refillable disposable vapes
  • Clearomisers

However, as nic salts deliver nicotine into the body more effectively than other e-liquids, nic salts are not recommended for use in high wattage devices or with sub ohm coils which heat to higher temperatures and produce lots of vapour, such as vape kits and vape mods.

There is no ‘best strength’ of nic salt, it is entirely based on personal requirements and preference.

However, as a rough guide the most common strength of nic salt in the UK is 20mg/ml, the highest strength allowed for sale in Britain.

This is mostly due to the fact that 20mg salts are found in most single use disposable vapes. As vaper move onto reusable devices, they often seek the same experience they enjoyed with disposables, and thus tend to start with the higher strength nic salts.

10mg nic salts are also available, and in some cases 5mg. It is generally recommended to start at the lowest level of nicotine and only increase the strength if you are not able to satisfy your cravings.

Nic Salts vs Freebase Nicotine

However the equivalent strength in freebase nicotine, typically 18mg/ml, have a much harsher throat hit that can be uncomfortable for some users.
