Résumé : |
The introduction of commercial aircraft built with increasingly complex composite materials and configurations has led aircraft manufacturers, their suppliers and the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) to review the test methods used to determine fire safety. A particular focus has been placed on reexamining the flammability performance criteria established by FAA 14 CFR 25.853, which governs materials used in aircraft interiors.
These efforts began in 2009, when industry leaders recognized that some of the existing regulations did not directly measure the flammability of newly designed composite components built with new-generation materials and technologically advanced construction methods. Compounding the dilemma was the broad interpretation of required testing used by various aircraft manufacturers to determine whether assembled structures met the requirements of the 14 CFR 25.853 flammability regulations.
Several of the regulation methods at issue included the testing of adhesives, insert potting compounds, and edge fills used in bonded structures and honeycomb core composite panels for aircraft interiors. Closely defined parameters for sample material, size, and configuration were also lacking from combustion and flammability tests. Conversely, some testing was perhaps being conducted unnecessarily when, for certain materials, years of collective flammability data already existed. |
