Liquid composition for electronic cigarettes

Abstract

The liquid composition for electronic cigarettes includes water, a natural glycol, glycerol, natural flavorings and possibly nicotine. The natural glycol is composed of 1,3-propanediol, obtained through bioprocessing of corn sugars.

1 . A liquid composition for electronic cigarettes comprising a natural glycol composed of 1,3-propanediol, wherein the composition does not comprise propylene glycol. 
     
     
         2 . A liquid composition according to  claim 1 , wherein said 1,3-propanediol is obtained through bioprocessing of corn sugars. 
     
     
         3 . A liquid composition according to  claim 1 , wherein said 1,3-propanediol is obtained through the fermentation of corn sugars. 
     
     
         4 . A liquid composition according to  claim 1 , wherein said 1,3-propanediol is present in a quantity comprised between 32% and 98% in weight. 
     
     
         5 . (canceled) 
     
     
         6 . A liquid composition according to  claim 2 , wherein said 1,3-propanediol is obtained through the fermentation of corn sugars. 
     
     
         7 . A liquid composition according to  claim 2 , wherein the liquid composition comprises between 32% and 98% weight percent of said 1,3-propanediol. 
     
     
         8 . A liquid composition according to  claim 3 , wherein the liquid composition comprises between 32% and 98% weight percent of said 1,3-propanediol. 
     
     
         9 . An electronic cigarette method comprising the steps of:
 providing a liquid composition for electronic cigarettes comprising a natural glycol composed of 1,3-propanediol, wherein the composition does not comprise propylene glycol; and   using said liquid composition in an electronic cigarette.   
     
     
         10 . An electronic cigarette method according to  claim 9 , wherein said 1,3-propanediol is obtained through bioprocessing of corn sugars. 
     
     
         11 . An electronic cigarette method according to  claim 9 , wherein said 1,3-propanediol is obtained through corn sugar fermentation. 
     
     
         12 . An electronic cigarette method according to  claim 9 , wherein the liquid composition comprises between 32% and 98% weight percent of said 1,3-propanediol. 
     
     
         13 . An electronic cigarette method according to  claim 10 , wherein said 1,3-propanediol is obtained through the fermentation of corn sugars. 
     
     
         14 . An electronic cigarette method according to  claim 9 , wherein the liquid composition comprises between 32% and 98% weight percent of said 1,3-propanediol. 
     
     
         15 . An electronic cigarette method according to  claim 10 , wherein the liquid composition comprises between 32% and 98% weight percent of said 1,3-propanediol.
