9、raphy10 ISO 12030:2010(E) iv ISO 2010 All rights reservedForeword ISO (the International Organization 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 committee

10、s. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established 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 Inter

11、national Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization. International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International St

12、andards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the sub

ISO 12030 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 126, Tobacco and tobacco products, Subcommittee SC 2, Leaf tobacco. ISO 12030:2010(E) ISO 2010 All rights reserved vIntroduction The density va

14、riation ratio (DVR) is one of the significant factors that influence tobacco aging and primary processing (see Reference 1). For example, the phenomena of oil loss, caking or even carbonization is easy to take place in an aging process because of the larger DVR. The block of strips, which has a larg

15、er DVR, is difficult to loosen in a conditioning cylinder. The larger DVR can lead to deterioration of taste and quality of cigarette and hence it is important to detect DVR of strips still in its case (i.e. before introducing it into a primary processing stream). The standard method for detecting D

16、VR of strips in case, used at present, is based on “9-point Static Detection (see Reference 2). This method results in damage to strips, being applicable for only off-line measurements and needing longer testing time. A non-destructive method, on the other hand, would be quicker, amenable to both of

17、f-line and on-line measurements and would result in no damage to strips and hence has been a subject of analytical research and development. X-rays can easily penetrate the strips case and their intensity correlates to the density of the material they pass through, which would be a strips column in

18、the case. The ionizing method has been widely used in many other areas (see IEC 60692 3 ) and IEC has developed relevant standards for safe X-ray apparatus (see IEC 60405 4 ). The X-ray apparatus used in the proposed method complies with these International Standards and can therefore be considered

19、to be a completely safe radiation source. Thus the ionizing radiation (X-ray attenuation) method retains the advantages of a non-destructive method for measurement of density of strips in the case, is amenable for on-line as well off-line measurements, is quick, safe and relatively inexpensive. The

20、present proposal elaborates on its application for measurement of density of strips in the case. There are more possibilities of measuring the density variation ratio in case. Any system with the same accuracy can be used. INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO 12030:2010(E) ISO 2010 All rights reserved 1Tobacc

If the total number of cases

30、is less than 100, at least two cases representing the entire lot shall be subjected to density determination. 6.2 Experimental protocol The main components of the instrument are the X-ray sources (5.1) with one or three pairs of X-ray-producing tubes and sensitive X-ray detectors. The X-ray-producin

31、g tubes emit X-rays constantly and the X-ray detector measures the intensity of the X-rays after they have passed through strips column in the strips case. The density determination device is fixed over a conveyor belt that carries the strips case. The number and location of detecting spots is given

32、 in 6.3. The density value of nine different detection spots is determined as a first result, and then the DVR value is calculated. ISO 12030:2010(E) 4 ISO 2010 All rights reserved6.3 Distribution of detection spots The distribution of detection spots is shown in Figure 3. Figure 3 Distribution of n

Line 1 (L1), Line 2 (L2) and Line 3 (L3) are parallel with the edge AC; Line 4 (L4), Line 5 (L5) and Line 6 (L6) are parallel with edge AB. Detection sp

34、ot locations are indicated by intersections of these lines viz., spots a, b, c, d, e, f, g, h and i. Spot e is the centre of the top view of strips case. The distances between L1 and edge AC, L3 and edge BD, L4 and edge AB, L6 and edge CD are the same, being one eighth of the length of the strips ca

Although the water content is not used in determining DVR, it may affect the results. The water content should, therefore, be determined and reported. 6.5 Determination of density 6

36、5.1 Calibration The density determination instrument is calibrated with five standard pieces (plexiglass tubes containing strips with different densities) before actual usage as described in Annex A. 6.5.2 Determination of density The intensity of X-rays (initial and after passing through strips co

48、nex B (informative) Main components of X-ray device B.1 Principle of producing X-rays A glass envelope under high vacuum, with a wire element at one end forms the cathode, and a heavy target at the other end forms the anode. Electrons from the cathode are accelerated on to a positively-charged anode

49、 by means of a high voltage. When electrons hit this material, some of the electrons will approach the nucleus of the metal atoms where they are deflected because of their opposite charges (electrons are negative and the nucleus is positive). This deflection causes the energy of the electrons to decrease, and this decrease in energy then results in forming an X-ray. X-rays are emitted from the anode in all directions. Shielding is used to create a
