What's new

Another cellucotton convert

Just put my order in. At that price for 10 foot it's got to be worth a punt. I think I'm going to need a bigger rebuild kit bag though :)
 
i might try putting some down the channels of the kayfun see if that stops flooding (slow the flow down )

Lol I think I need a bigger man den it just keeps getting less and less room inside it , where will it end ha ha
 
Seems like most are getting on with it. Picked up a second Heron at Vapefest, this time adding a 510 connector. Rocking some Chiricahua sun right now. :)
 
Don't want to burst anyone's bubble on cellucotton (rayon), i myself was about to buy some last week but thought it would be safer to go down the japanese cotton route (which is a vast improvement over the organic cotton balls)
The japanese cotton was still a close call on the pbusardo review over rayon imho.
Like i said just wanted to inform my fellow vapers on what was posted on another forum

my guess is you are inquiring on our Rayon coil for the manufacturing of E-Cigs filters, because I have been getting quite a few emails/calls on this. We have requested a disclaimer from our Attorney on this product which is below: I would suggest to google on Wikipedia on the process of Rayon and do your study from there. I also have that below.

We buy the rayon as a staple rayon and form thru our carding machine into ropes.

“The beauty coil is intended solely as an absorbent product for use in hair and nail treatments. Graham offers no advice or instructions regarding the misuse of its beauty coil as a wick for e-cigarettes, or any other purpose for which the product is not intended.” Attorney disclaimed.

Rayon process.

Production method

Regular rayon (or viscose) is the most widely produced form of rayon. This method of rayon production has been utilized since the early 1900s and it has the ability to produce either filament or staple fibers. The process is as follows:

Cellulose: Production begins with processed cellulose
Immersion: The cellulose is dissolved in caustic soda: (C6H10O5)n + nNaOH → (C6H9O4ONa)n + nH2O
Pressing: The solution is then pressed between rollers to remove excess liquid
White Crumb: The pressed sheets are crumbled or shredded to produce what is known as "white crumb"
Aging: The "white crumb" is aged through exposure to oxygen
Xanthation: The aged "white crumb" is mixed with carbon disulfide in a process known as Xanthation, the aged alkali cellulose crumbs are placed in vats and are allowed to react with carbon disulfide under controlled temperature (20 to 30 °C) to form cellulose xanthate: (C6H9O4ONa)n + nCS2 → (C6H9O4O-SC-SNa)n
Yellow Crumb: Xanthation changes the chemical makeup of the cellulose mixture and the resulting product is now called "yellow crumb"
Viscose: The "yellow crumb" is dissolved in a caustic solution to form viscose
Ripening: The viscose is set to stand for a period of time, allowing it to ripen: (C6H9O4O-SC-SNa)n + nH2O → (C6H10O5)n + nCS2 + nNaOH
Filtering: After ripening, the viscose is filtered to remove any undissolved particles
Degassing: Any bubbles of air are pressed from the viscose in a degassing process
Extruding: The viscose solution is extruded through a spinneret, which resembles a shower head with many small holes
Acid Bath: As the viscose exits the spinneret, it lands in a bath of sulfuric acid, resulting in the formation of rayon filaments: (C6H9O4O-SC-SNa)n + ½nH2SO4 → (C6H10O5)n + nCS2 + ½nNa2SO4
Drawing: The rayon filaments are stretched, known as drawing, to straighten out the fibers
Washing: The fibers are then washed to remove any residual chemicals
Cutting: If filament fibers are desired the process ends here. The filaments are cut down when producing staple fibers[1]

Fuck, no wonder it made me feel sick after using this_stuff in a kayfun. O my tried about 5/6 tokes. Ripped it out. Not for me. Sticking to cotton!

that's what i thought, glad you said it
 
It's no surprise I guess that a manufacturer of a product not originally intended for ecigs should desire a disclaimer.

So it's bleached with various scary sounding chemicals, and sterilised and washed. So is cotton wool. I guess you know its ain't Dulux white au naturale right?

Like with anything, all we can do is research and make a choice.

Considering what I used to put in my lungs on a daily basis I'll take the risk personally.
