Lab Safety when Mixing Liquid Nicotine

E-liquid home-brewing has gained in popularity and for good reason; it gives you a cheaper and higher quality e-juice. While there are numerous benefits, it can be dangerous. The highest degree of caution need be taken with every step when dealing with these necessary chemicals. It’s important to keep in mind that nicotine is extremely toxic and can be very dangerous when not handled appropriately. In its purest form, nicotine is actually considered poisonous. Brewing of e-liquids should not be attempted by someone who does not have the proper training or experience with toxic chemicals.

 

Liquid Nicotine & Yourself

When brewing your e-liquid, you must be careful to protect yourself.
✓ Avoid contact on the skin or eyes with liquid nicotine. It's best to use protective clothing, gloves, goggles and gear.
✓ Make sure your clothes do not hang loosely. Loose clothing can lead to accidental contact with the chemicals or knocking over of chemicals.
✓ Fully educate yourself on the chemicals you are using. While there may be a little bit of experimenting with flavoring, do not be over-confident.
✓ Buy chemicals and materials from a reputable retailer you can trust.

 

Liquid Nicotine & Others

It is your responsibility to ensure no harm comes to others due to your e-liquid mixing. These steps can help make sure others stay safe.
✓ Do not handle liquid nicotine in the presence of a child or animal. Even a drop of it has the potential to kill a small child.
✓ Ensure that your bottles are all properly marked with the substances they contain.
 ✓ Be sure to use child-safety bottles if children may come across the bottles. You may also want to keep all material in a locked cabinet or box.
✓ If a child does come in contact with hazardous material, seek medical attention immediately.
✓ Use eye protection, gloves, a respirator or fume hood and a laboratory coat or apron

 

Brewing Workspace

✓ Keep your workspace well ventilated to avoid liquid nicotine building in the air.
✓ Clean or dispose of any item that comes in contact with liquid nicotine.
✓ Do not dispose of liquid nicotine in the environment.
✓ Keep materials away from any kind of flame as materials may be flammable.
✓ Make sure you have quick access to running water when mixing in case of emergency.
✓ Use high quality chemistry laboratory glassware that isn’t prone to breaking or cracking under heat or toxicity.
✓ Keep a clean and orderly workspace. You shouldn’t necessarily be afraid of your e-liquid, but it is hugely important that you handle all the chemicals with care.
