Material Qualification Methodology for 2X2 Biaxially Braided RTM Composite Material Systems

The purpose of this qualification plan is to describe an acceptable program to
substantiate that the materials and processes employed meet appropriate
Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) requirements. These requirements apply
to the original material qualification. Once certified, changes to the material,
process, tooling and/or facility require a review and it may be required that some
(or all) of these tests be repeated.
This plan gives specific information about the qualification program for a
2x2 biaxially braided composite material system that is manufactured
using a Resin Transfer Molding (RTM) process. Specifically, this plan
covers one-part resin systems which are premixed at the resin
manufacturer and combined with a braided sock preform via a RTM
process.
The qualification plan describes material qualification methodology for a
2x2 biaxially braided composite material system that is manufactured
using a resin transfer molding (RTM) process. Additionally, this plan
establishes testing methods and process controls necessary to certify
composite materials used for airframe components under FAR Part 23
requirements. In some cases, unique characteristics of a material system
or its application may require testing beyond that described in this
document. In these situations, Aircraft Certification Offices (ACOs) may
require additional testing to demonstrate compliance to the applicable
Federal Aviation Regulations (FARs).
