and firmness, so as to achieve the purpose of ensuring that the product will not be contaminated
circumferential surface of the disc.
A.2 Specimen Collection
Randomly take a pack (box) of paper towels, and cut two specimens (finished product layer) of
100 mm 100 mm. The specimens taken shall be representative. If the width of the specimen
is less than 100 mm, then, take a specimen with an area of 0.01 m2.
A.3 Test Procedures
A.3.1 Adjust the instrument level and check the instrument to ensure that the instrument is
functioning normally.
A.3.2 Fill the plum blossom shaped cylinder with tap water and make the water volume in the
cylinder reach (5.0 0.1) L. Turn on the compressed air, set the pressure to (0.40 0.02) MPa
and the air flow to (10.0 0.8) L/min, so that the air bubbles evenly pass through the air holes
into the water in the cylinder. Start the rotor and set the rotation speed of the rotor to (350 1)
r/min. After the vortex in the cylinder stabilizes, the height from the water surface to the bottom
of the vortex is about one third of the total height of the water surface in the cylinder. Set the
test duration to 40 s and put the specimen into the center of the vortex in the cylinder; when
placing it, make sure that the paper surface is perpendicular to the water level, and at the same
time, start timing. After 40 s, turn off the motor and stop the ventilation. Observe whether there
is one or more fragments of the specimen in the cylinder. If the specimen sinks to the bottom
of the cylinder during the test, and the specimen is broken by the rotor at the bottom, then, the
test is invalid and needs to be re-performed. If two tests are invalid, it is advisable to
appropriately increase the gas flow or reduce the rotor speed; indicate it in the report.
A.3.3 After the test is completed, drain all the water and specimen debris in the cylinder, clean
the cylinder wall and the rotor, and prepare for the next test. If the debris cannot be completely
discharged after one wash, multiple washes shall be performed.
A.3.4 For each sample, test two specimens.
A.4 Test Report
If the test results of two specimens show one or more fragments, then, report the test results of
the sample as dispersible; if the test result of one of the two specimens shows that there is no
one or more fragments, then, re-take two specimens for the test. If the test results of two re-
selected specimens show one or more fragments, then, report the test results of the sample as
dispersible, otherwise, report the test results of the sample as non-dispersible.

3 Classification
3.1 Facial tissue can be divided into paper towel, paper napkin, paper handkerchief, etc.
3.2 According to the quality, facial tissue can be divided into two grades - superior
products and qualified products.
3.3 Facial tissue can be divided into super-soft type and ordinary type.
3.4 Facial tissue can be divided into monolayer, bilayer and multilayer.
4 Requirements
4.1 Technical index of facial tissue shall be in accordance with Table 1 or contract’s
provisions.
4.3 Facial tissue shall be usually folded in flat or slicing. Its specification shall be in
accordance with provisions of contract. Dimensional deviation of specification shall not
exceed the nominal value by ±5mm; and the degree of skew shall not exceed 3mm; or be
in accordance with provisions of contract.
4.4 Facial tissue can be patter-embossed or pattern-stamped. Facial tissue in various
colors is also allowed. But harmful dyes shall not be used.
4.5 Facial tissue shall be clean and the puckers shall be even, fine and smooth. There
shall not be obvious dead-fold, incomplete, breakage, sand, hard block, raw pulp ball and
other paper defects.
4.6 There shall not be off-powder or lint desquamating from the facial tissue; and colorized
facial tissue shall not fade when being soaked.
4.7 Toxic and harmful raw materials shall not be used in facial tissue. While wood,
herbage, bamboo and other natural fibrous raw materials shall be used. Using any
recycled paper, paper presswork, paper product and other recycled fibrous substance as
the raw material must not be allowed; neither is deinking agent.
4.8 Hygienic index of facial tissue shall be in accordance with the provisions of GB 15979.
5 Test Methods
5.1 Sampling and treatment
Carry out sampling according to GB/T 450. Sample treatment and test standard
atmospheric condition shall be in accordance with GB/T 10739.
5.2 Quantification
The quantity shall be determined according to GB/T 24328.5. Express the result in
monolayer.
5.3 Brightness (whiteness)
Brightness (whiteness) shall be determined according to GB/T 7974.
5.4 Portable fluorescent whitening agent
Put the sample under ultraviolet lamp. Inspect whether there is fluorescence phenomenon
at wave length of 254nm and 365nm. If the sample has no fluorescence phenomenon
under ultraviolet lamp, then it can be determined that it does not contain portable
fluorescent whitening agent. If the sample has fluorescence phenomenon, then
determination of portable fluorescent whitening agent can be carried out according to
Chapter 5 of GB/T 27741-2011.
discovered in the first samples is more than or equal to the first unacceptable quantity,
then this batch shall be deemed as unacceptable. If the number of unqualified products
discovered in the first samples is between the first acceptable quantity and the first
unacceptable quantity, the second samples with the quantity provided in the scheme shall
be inspected; and the number shall be accumulated to the unqualified products
discovered in the first and second samples. If the accumulated number of unqualified
products is less than or equal to the second acceptable quantity, then this batch shall be
determined as acceptable; if the accumulated number of unqualified products is more than
or equal to the second acceptable quantity, then this batch shall be determined as
unacceptable.
6.5 If the demander has dispute over the product quality, it shall inform the supplier for
joint re-inspection within 3 months after receiving the goods; or entrust an jointly-agreed
inspection body to carry out the re-inspection. If result of the re-inspection is not in
accordance with this standard or provisions of contract, then this batch shall be
determined as unacceptable and the supplier shall be responsible; if result of the
re-inspection is in accordance with this standard or provisions of contract, then this batch
shall be determined as acceptable and the demander shall be responsible.
7 Marking and Packaging
7.1 Packaging and marking of product sales
Product marking shall include at least following contents.
- Product name and trademark;
- Product standard number;
- Main raw materials of the products;
- Production date (or serial number) and quality guarantee period, or batch number
and expiration date;
- Super-soft product shall be marked with product type; while ordinary product may be
exempted from marking with product type;
- Product specification;
- Product quantity (the number of sheets, groups, pulling-out or pieces);
- Product quality level and product conformance mark;
- Name, detailed address, etc. of manufacturing enterprise (or product responsible
organization).
