RELX launches new national standard vaping products.
RELX YUEKE's new products "Phantom Star River Dream" atomizer, "Wangjiangyoujing BBQ25" and "Forest Revival BBQ53" cartridges are now available for sale in some e-cigarette shops in Shenzhen.

On September 1st, the RELX Yueke (Wuxin Technology) national standard product, the Phantom "Starry River Dream" vaporizer, as well as the Phantom "Wangjiang Youjing Shan Kao 25" and Phantom "Forest Revival Shan Kao 53" vaporizer cartridges, were released and made available for purchase in some e-cigarette shops in Shenzhen. This marks the first time that Yueke has released new products since the implementation of the "Electronic Cigarette Management Measures" and the national standard for electronic cigarettes.


It has been reported that the three aforementioned products have been released for sale on the national unified electronic cigarette trading management platform. On August 29th, the first national order was sold by a Shenzhen-based electronic cigarette store. As of August 31st, licensed electronic cigarette retailers in certain areas of Guangdong Province, Fujian Province, Shenzhen City, and Shandong Province can place orders through the platform. Currently, Yooz has multiple products that have undergone technical evaluations, and there are several more products currently undergoing technical evaluation.


According to staff members at related stores, the standard version of the Yooz Phantom Star River Dream has added a child lock function. Additionally, the Forget Jiangyoujing Shan Kao 25 and Forest Renaissance Shan Kao 53 have mixed different fragrances with a tobacco flavor as their base, making use of three innovative technologies: material refinement, flavor perception, and compound nicotine. These two atomizer balls have become the biggest highlight of the products. All three of the above-mentioned products are also compatible with non-standard Yooz products.


The journalist observed that the appearance of three new national standard products from Yooz e-cigarettes had changed to varying degrees, and in accordance with the national standard requirements, relevant warning labels were placed in more prominent positions on the product and packaging. According to the national standard, e-cigarettes should have child-proof and accidental start protection functions. Yooz has incorporated this function into the product design without adding additional components. The new atomizer rod is locked and requires three consecutive quick insertions and removals of the atomizer cartridge within 2 seconds to unlock. The same action will lock it again. When in locked mode, the atomizer rod will vibrate to remind users that it is locked and effectively prevent underage use.


In addition, the national standard phantom also features a fog prevention and anti-dry burn function that meets national standards. With a 350-degree temperature control algorithm, the product will stop heating immediately when the temperature exceeds the limit, ensuring the stability of the fog components. Furthermore, with added comprehensive circuit protection, the battery safety of the national standard phantom is on par with mainstream mobile phone products, effectively preventing battery overheating or underheating.


How to maintain tobacco flavor while minimizing health risks? This is the research and development challenge that electronic cigarette brands must address in the era of national standards. According to reports, Yooz, a popular electronic cigarette brand, has referenced the development methods of traditional cigarettes, carefully selecting high-quality tobacco extracts from around the world and refining them further using natural extracts to ensure both the desired aroma for smokers and safety. The incorporation of sensory technology guarantees that Yooz products consistently deliver a stable flavor experience from start to finish.


On the other hand, the national standard for "electronic cigarettes" requires a reduction in nicotine content in the aerosol pellets to further reduce the addictive properties of the product. Yooz has developed a composite nicotine technology that meets regulatory requirements by precisely adjusting the proportion of selected organic acids in the formula. This ensures that the total nicotine concentration is not more than 20mg/g (2%) and the total content is not more than 200mg, while still providing enough satisfaction for regular smokers. Currently, this technology has been applied to the Forest Restoration Mountain Roasted 53 aerosol pellets.

China’s Zhengzhou Tobacco Research Institute develops end-to-end heated tobacco analysis to trace aerosol compound origins
The Zhengzhou Tobacco Research Institute of China National Tobacco Corporation has filed a patent application for an end-to-end method to analyze the migration and transformation of chemical compounds in heated tobacco products. Using GC-Orbitrap/MS non-targeted analysis, the method compares tobacco substrate and aerosol samples to distinguish compounds transferred directly from the substrate from those newly formed during heating, while also calculating transfer rates. In an example involving nine heated tobacco products, the patent identified 17 newly formed thermal decomposition compounds and 38 transferred compounds.

U.S. Fifth Circuit Vacates NicQuid Vape MDO, Says FDA Comparative-Efficacy Standard Violated APA Procedures
According to VitalLaw on August 27, 2026, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit vacated an FDA marketing denial order (MDO) against NicQuid LLC, ruling that the agency’s comparative-efficacy standard for electronic nicotine delivery system (ENDS) applications had become a substantive rule requiring notice-and-comment rulemaking under the Administrative Procedure Act (APA). The court did not reject FDA’s authority to compare the public health benefits and risks of flavored vapes, but held that the agency could not establish a broadly binding standard through informal adjudications. The case was remanded to FDA for further proceedings.
