Syensqo has achieved FAA-sponsored NCAMP qualification for its PRISM EP2400 epoxy resin system in combination with Teijin Carbon’s Tenax IMS65 E23 24K Non-Crimp Fabrics (NCF) and woven unidirectional (UD woven) reinforcements.
The qualification, recognized by both FAA and EASA and formalized under material specification NMS 241 and process specification NPS 82401, is supported by a publicly available NCAMP Material Property Data Report, providing aerospace manufacturers with certified, design-ready material data to accelerate implementation where resin infusion offers clear performance and cost advantages.
“This qualification fills a critical gap in publicly available aerospace material data,” said Rob Blackburn, Head of Customer Engineering at Syensqo. “It’s the first resin infusion system in the NCAMP database, giving manufacturers a validated, scalable alternative to autoclave processing for applications where resin infusion makes sense such as integrated structures.”
PRISM EP2400 is the first resin infusion material to be added to the NCAMP database. Until now, public NCAMP allowables have focused almost exclusively on prepreg systems, leaving a gap for OEMs seeking validated out-of-autoclave (OoA) resin infusion solutions.
This qualification directly addresses that gap, offering industry-approved, publicly available mechanical property data for a high-performance infusion process.

From 1 January 2026, all bunker vessels operating in the ports of Rotterdam and Antwerp-Bruges must use a Mass Flow Meter (MFM) when delivering residual distillates (fuel oil and diesel) and biofuels. This system measures exactly how much fuel goes from the bunker ship to the seagoing vessel. The aim is to make the bunker market in both ports more reliable, efficient, and transparent. Once the MFM system is implemented, it must also be certified.
