| MOSAIK

The MOSAIK program confirmed the suitability for using
ductile iron in the construction of radioactive material casks.
Ductile iron is widely used in Western Europe for this purpose.
Sandia obtained the MOSAIK cask from its German manufacturer for
a series of five drop tests conducted in 1994 which varied from
a height of 30 feet to 60 feet. Technology based on MIDAS has been
licensed for commercial use.
