Bull. Spec. CORESTA Symposium, Kallithea, 1990, p. 188, T01, ISSN.0525-6240 Filter tip flare - causes and testing HAMPL V. Kimberly-Clark Corporation, Specialty Products R&D, Roswell, GA, USA Filter tip flare, a small flame generated from the ignition of combustible gases, can occur when a cigarette is smoked into the filter tip assembly. Although tip flare happens infrequently, it is obviously distressing to the smoker. The objectives of...
Bull. Spec. CORESTA Congress, Guangzhou 1988, p. 160, T-8 The role of tipping and plug wrap papers in the design and manufacture of filter cigarettes ARONOFF A.; MATTINA C.F. Kimberly-Clark Corporation, Specialty Products R&D, Roswell, GA, USA During the 1950's, when the concept of producing cigarettes with filters was realized commercially, a need developed for specialized papers to meet the specialized demands of a new and highly sophisticated form of manufacturing. The filtering medium...
Tob. Sci., 1982, 26-03, p. 9-12, ISSN. 0082-4523 A rapid analyzer for plasticizer in filter rods MATHIS D.E. Research Laboratories, Tennessee Eastman Company, Eastman Chemicals Division, Eastman Kodak Company, Kingsport, TN, USA A new instrument was developed for rapid, semiautomatic analysis of plasticizer in filter rods. Its use entails the spectroscopic determination of plasticizer extracted from filter rods by using an azeotropic Freon TF-methanol solvent. Quantitative...
Tob. Sci., 1981, 25-16, p. 57-60, ISSN. 0082-4523 Spectrophotometric determination of filtration efficiency of cigarette filters SLOAN C. l-l.; CURRAN J.G. Research Laboratories, Tennessee Eastman Company, Eastman Chemicals Division. Eastman Kodak Company, Kingsport, Tennessee 37662. A spectrophotometric method was developed for determining the efficiency of cigarette filters. The method is a modification of one proposed by Smit. The new spectrophotometric method can also be used to determine indirectly the amount of dry...
Tob. Sci., 1980, 24-31, p. 105-108, ISSN. 0082-4523 Apparatus for measuring cigarette filter ventilation WEATHERLY C.H.; KIEFER J.E. Research Laboratories, Tennessee Eastman Company, Division of Eastman Kodak Company, Kingsport, Tennessee USA A new apparatus for measuring the degree of smoke dilution in vented- filter cigarettes was designed and constructed. The apparatus utilizes a linearized mass-flow meter that features low pressure drop (~1 mm water at full flow), digital readout, and...
Tob. Sci., 1978, 22-46, p.155-157, ISSN. 0082-4523 Calibration standard for measuring dilution of cigarette smoke KIEFER J.E.; WEATHERLY C.H. Research Laboratories, Tennessee Eastman Company, Division of Eastman Kodak Company, Kingsport, Tennessee USA Vented-filter cigarettes are gaining a significant portion of the filter cigarette market. To facilitate design of improved vented filters and to provide adequate quality control of cigarettes with these filters, tobacco scientists need a means of...
Tob. Sci., 1977, 21-16, p. 57, ISSN. 0082-4523 Computerization of the gas-phase analysis of cigarette smoke SLOAN C.H.; LEWIS J.S.; MORIE G.P. Research Laboratories, Tennessee Eastman Company, Division of Eastman Kodak Company, Kingsport, Tennessee USA The gas phase of cigarette smoke contains many compounds of interest which influence the flavor of the smoke. The determination of these components is useful in the evaluation of selected filters. A gas chromatographic method which uses a 12-ft x...
Tob. Sci., 1976, 20-51, p. 167-169, ISSN.0082-4523 Some factors that affect the diffusion of carbon monoxide out of cigarettes MORIE G.P. Research Laboratories, Tennessee Eastman Company, Division of Eastman Kodak Company, Kingsport, Tennessee USA Several factors affect the diffusion of carbon monoxide (CO) out of a cigarette during a puff. When the ashes were removed from cigarettes during smoking, slight, but significant, reductions in CO and carbon dioxide (CO2) in the mainstream smoke...
Tob. Sci., 1975, 19-06, p. 16-17, ISSN.0082-4523 Nuclear magnetic resonance method for the quantitative determination for the plasticizers in cellulose acetate filter rods BAGGETT M.S.; KINDER H.D.; MORIE G.P. Research Laboratories, Tennessee Eastman Company, Division of Eastman Kodak Company, Kingsport, Tennessee USA A rapid quantitative nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) method was developed for the analysis of plasticizer mixtures in cellulose acetate filter rods. Five 20-mm rods were extracted into 25 ml CCl4 with 0.4% trifluoracetic acid containing benzene as...
