Abstract
The orthogonal test,which deals with different cigarette paper,tipping paper,wrapping paper and filter,is designed and applied to study the effects of these factors on the mainstream smoke delivery and filtration efficiency of the cigarette with 30 mm filter rod.It is indicated through the results that the air permeability of tipping paper and the pressure drop of filter rod are the most prominent and important influencing factors.Therefore,the adjustments and controls of these factors are the keystones of the cigarette quality control,which is one of the best channels to reduce the costs of the products.The orthogonal test is proved to be a shortcut,efficient,economical and veracious one to seek the optimized scheme to arrange cigarette materials in pairs or groups.
