[Method] Two pretreatment methodsof microwave di- gestion and acid extraction were used to process the ash content, the total particu- late matter of mainstream smoke (TPM) and cigarette filter. Detection results of heavy metal elements were compared by the two methods. [Result] The microwave digestion method was better than acid solution extraction method on analysis of TPM, but presented disadvantages on analysis of ash and filter. Meanwhile, the migration amount and rate were studied and resultsshowed that most heavy metal elements were escaped along with sidestream smoke between 66.89% and 95.48%, and almost all Hg escaped through sidestream smoke. Other heavy metal elements, except Hg, were separately found in ash, TPM and filter. Cr, Ni, As and Se were mostly residual in ash, followed by TPM, and filter had the least, while Cd and Pb were just in the reverse order. Normally, 5% or less heavy metal elements were transferred to TPM, only a small part of which could reach 5%-10%. [Conclusion] Most of the heavy metal elements are taken by sidestream smoke, ash and filter, while the migration amounts to mainstream smoke are extremely low.展开更多
