19、ds 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 has the right to be represented on that committee. International organi

20、zations, 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. International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in

21、 the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 %

22、of the member bodies casting a vote. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights.

23、try, Subcommittee SC 7, Oral care products. This first edition cancels and replaces ISO 8627:1987. EN ISO 22254:2005iv Introduction The stiffness of the tufted area of a manual toothbrush has been of great concern for both consumers and manufacturers. This International Standard provides a test meth

24、od for determining the resistance of the tufted portion to deflection, which could be used to derive a stiffness as described in Annex A. However, this International Standard does not cover stiffness of manual toothbrushes and its classification. For stiffness determination, the measurement of the t

25、ufted area is required, but the result of the measurement varies over a wide range depending on the method of the measurement and the shape of the tuft holes. Therefore, the tufted area and stiffness determinations are described in Annex A. Since the perception of stiffness differs amongst different

26、 countries, stiffness may be classified differently in each country. EN ISO 22254:20051Dentistry Manual toothbrushes Resistance of tufted portion to deflection 1 Scope This International Standard specifies a test method for determining the resistance of the tufted portion of manual toothbrushes to d

27、eflection. This International Standard is applicable to toothbrushes having a conventional, flat trim design and may not be applicable to toothbrushes with other designs. The results obtained with this International Standard may not correspond to consumer perceptions of the stiffness of toothbrush f

36、5.1 Apparatus 5.1.1 Test machine (see Figure 2), capable of measuring the resistance of the tufted portion to deflection, consisting of the following components: 5.1.1.1 Brushing table (see Figure 3), consisting of five rods (3,2 0,1) mm diameter, with a distance between the centres of the two rods

37、of (8,2 0,1) mm, made of a hard metal such as stainless steel. 5.1.1.2 Vertical column, consisting of a gripping block for the brush head such that it does not flex and applies (5 0,05) N to the gripped brush. 5.1.1.3 Load cell, of force range from 0 to 20 N and accurate to 0,05 N, connected to one

38、end of the brushing table. 5.1.1.4 Driving unit, which moves the table back and forth along the longitudinal axis at a rate between 10 mm/s and 50 mm/s (traverse distance: more than the length of a brush head).

40、 5.3 Conditioning of toothbrushes Cut off the brush head at the neck, discard the handle and weigh the brush head to the nearest 0,5 g. Immerse the brush head in water, in accordance with grade 3 of ISO 3696:1987, at (37 2) C for 90 s. After immersion, shake off excess water and fix the brush head i

41、n the gripping device. EN ISO 22254:20056 5.4.1 Positioning of the brush head Attach the gripping device (3) in Figure 2 to the test machine (see Figure 2), such that the tuft hole plane is parallel to the brushing table (5) in Figure 2. Position the brush head in line with the brushing table, avoid

42、ing contact with the rods (1) in Figure 3. Adjust the force on the brush head (2) in Figure 2 to (5 0,05) N, taking into account the mass of a brush head weighed in 5.3. Lower the brush head assembly on to the flat surface of the brushing table, until the load is completely transferred to the table.

43、 NOTE A convenient method of positioning is to make use of a positioning block, e.g. made of a material such as a polyvinylsiloxane impression material (putty type) or epoxy resin, which fits the gripping block. 5.4.2 Measurement of resistance to deflection Within (3 0,25) min after removal of the b

44、rush head from the water, start the sliding movement of the brushing table at a sliding velocity between 10 mm/s and 50 mm/s. At the end of five cycles, record the maximum force in newtons given by the load cell (4) in Figure 2 for each of the two directions. Calculate the mean of the two recorded v

45、alues as the resistance to deflection. Repeat the procedure for the remaining four toothbrushes and calculate the overall mean resistance to deflection. NOTE A cycle is the travel of the brushing table from its original position to the limit of travel and back to the original position. 5.4.3 Test re

46、port Report the resistance to deflection of each of the five toothbrushes tested, the mean resistance to deflection, the standard deviation and name of toothbrush. EN ISO 22254:20057Annex A (informative) Determination of stiffness of the tufted portion of toothbrush The stiffness of the tufted porti

47、on of a toothbrush is determined by the following procedure after the measurement of the resistance to deflection. Remove all tufts from the five tested brush heads and take a photograph or draw a tracing of the tuft hole plane for each of the five heads under three times to ten times magnification.

48、 Measure the tufted area either on the photograph or the tracing to within 0,1 cm2using a planimeter and calculate the tufted area, A, of the brush head. Calculate the stiffness, in newtons per square centimetre (N/cm2) for each toothbrush, using the following formula: Stf= F/A where Stfis the stiff

49、ness; F is the resistance to deflection, in newtons; A is the tufted area, in square centimetres. Report the stiffness of each of the five toothbrushes tested and the mean stiffness.
