E-liquids are primarily composed of two base ingredients: Propylene Glycol (PG) and Vegetable Glycerin (VG). Both are food-grade substances widely used across consumer industries and are generally recognized as safe for ingestion. However, when these compounds are exposed to excessive heat during vaporization, their chemical behavior changes.
Scientific research shows that under high thermal stress, both PG and VG can degrade and form reactive carbonyl compounds. That said, PG has consistently been observed to be more prone to thermal breakdown and carbonyl formation compared to VG, especially when temperatures exceed optimal vaporization ranges. This makes heat control—not just ingredient choice—a critical factor in aerosol safety.
This is where precision engineering becomes essential. ASDF places strong emphasis on controlled power output and stable heat management across all disposable and pod systems. Devices such as the Vapetape TEMPO are engineered to reach efficient vaporization temperatures without pushing the coil into conditions that promote harmful thermal degradation regardless of the PG/VG ratio used in the formulation.
By maintaining consistent, regulated heating, ASDF technology supports both performance and longevity while reducing unnecessary thermal stress on the e-liquid. This approach allows for confident flavor development—from bright, layered profiles like Melon Lychee and Pineapple Blackcurrant in TEMPO, to richer, dessert-style experiences such as Butter Popcorn in Vapetape UNPLUG—without compromising stability or compliance.
In short, safer vapor production isn’t just about what’s in the liquid it’s about how intelligently it’s heated. And that balance is at the core of ASDF’s product philosophy.
