Short summary
The abstract summarizes the background for the metal seal investigations which are proposed for a poster presentation at safeND 2023 and gives an outlook on the intended content for the conference. Overall, the running investigations will be summarized, and the implications for resilient, long-term safety will be discussed. Additionally, an outlook on planned investigations and required knowledge for an interim storage period extension in regard to metal seals will be given.
