10、ation for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established

11、 has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization. D

12、raft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least75% of the member bodies casting a vote. International Standard ISO3550-2 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC1

13、26, Tobacco and tobacco products, Subcommittee SC1, Physical and dimensional tests. ISO 3550 consists of the following parts, under the general title Cigarettes Determination of loss of tobacco from the ends: Part 1: Method using a rotating cylindrical cage; Part 2: Method using a rotating cubic box

14、 (sismelatophore). Descriptors: Cigarettes, tests, mechanical tests, determination, losses, tobacco, test equipment. BS 5381-8:1997 BSI 05-1999 1 Introduction The loss of tobacco from cigarette ends, which particularly affects short strands, is a nuisance for the industry as well as for the consumer

15、. From this standpoint, the greater a cigarettes resistance to loss from its ends, the higher its quality. The measuring devices available are based on the rotation of a cigarette-containing device. This International Standard describes two particular types of devices. The first, described in ISO355

16、0-1, comprises a rotating cylindrical cage through which tobacco is allowed to fall into a weighing vessel; the second, described in this part of ISO3550, uses a cubic box rotating about its main diagonal axis. The first system principally permits determination of losses undergone by the cigarette d

17、uring the manufacturing and packaging processes, and the second one losses undergone throughout the distribution network and in the smokers pocket. The two methods, are not mutually exclusive and other acceptable methods exist which are based upon slightly different types of device. 1 Scope This par

18、t of ISO 3550 specifies a method for the determination of loss of tobacco from cigarette ends using a cubic rotative box (sismelatophore). It applies mainly to the determination of the losses undergone throughout the distribution network and in the smokers pocket. NOTEA method of determination of lo

19、ss of tobacco from the ends using a rotating cylindrical cage is described in ISO3550-1. 2 Normative references The following standards contain provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of this part of ISO3550. At the time of publication, the editions indicated were val

20、id. All standards are subject to revision, and parties to agreements based on this part of ISO3550 are encouraged to investigate the possibility of applying the most recent editions of the standards indicated below. Members of IEC and ISO maintain registers of currently valid International Standards

22、, Cigarettes Sampling. 3 Principle A test portion of a given number of cigarettes is subjected to a random series of impacts repeated in such a way as to bring about artificially a loss of tobacco strands at the ends. These impacts are achieved by tumbling the portion in a cubic box revolving unifor

23、mly around an axis coincident with a principal diagonal. The tobacco loss, expressed in parts per thousand(), is given by calculating the ratio of theloss of mass of cigarettes in a given time to the initial mass of the test portion. As a first result of the test, the mass, m L , of tobacco falling

24、from the test portion is determined. From this mass, m L , and the non-tobacco mass, m 2(cigarette paper, filter, glue, etc.), the characteristics of the cigarette (i.e. the loss rate of tobacco, the loss of tobacco per open end and per unit cross section of the open end) are determined. 4 Apparatus

25、 4.1 Conditioning chamber, capable of controlling the enclosed atmosphere in accordance with the requirements of ISO3402. 4.2 Cubic rotating box (sismelatophore) (seeFigure 1), consisting of: a) a cubic box, made of poly(methyl methacrylate) or any other plastics material having equivalent propertie

26、s, the inside edge of which measures140mm 5mm, held by two trihedral supports in such a way that one of the principal diagonals is horizontal; one of the faces of the cubic box can be opened (groove or hinge); b) one half-spindle, clamped to a timing micromotor device, which rotates the cube at60min

27、 1 2min 1 . The other half-spindle supports a spring which holds the cube in position during rotation; this allows the cube to be freed for filling or emptying; c) a time-switch for regulating the duration of operation of the micromotor. 1) To be published.

29、iven in ISO8243 where applicable or, if not, by a procedure relevant to the aim of the test. In the latter case, an appropriate reference to, or details of, the sampling procedure used shall be given in the test report. 6 Procedure 6.1 Conditioning of test sample Place the test sample in the conditi

30、oning chamber(4.1) and condition the sample in accordance with ISO3402. 6.2 Test portion Take, as the test portion, 20 cigarettes from the conditioned test sample (see6.1). 6.3 Determination of water content Take a new test portion conditioned as specified in6.1 and determine the water content in ac

31、cordance with ISO6488. NOTEAlthough the water content is not used when calculating the loss of tobacco from cigarette ends, it may affect the results considerably. The water content should, therefore, be determined and reported. 6.4 Determination 6.4.1 Operate in the test atmosphere specified in ISO

32、3402. 6.4.2 Determine the mean diameter of the cigarettes to be tested to the nearest0,001mm in accordance with ISO2971. 6.4.3 Weigh the test portion (6.2) to the nearest0,001g, m 0 , immediately introduce it into the sismelatophore (4.2) and operate the apparatus for120 s 6s. NOTEThis duration was

33、selected experimentally as giving good sensitivity in an acceptable time. 6.4.4 Open the apparatus and remove the cigarettes with care. 6.4.5 Weigh the test portion again to the nearest0,001g after tumbling (m 1 ) and calculate the fallout quantity (m 0 m 1 )=m Lor weigh directly the mass of the deb

34、ris collected from the apparatus. Cut the paper lengthways with a sharp blade and separate the tobacco from the paper, adhesive and, if necessary, from the filter (in the case of filter cigarettes). Weigh separately materials other than tobacco (corresponding to mass m 2 ). Repeat the test5 to10 tim

35、es according to the accuracy desired.
