NASA Organic Inventory Template
| Organic Inventory | Mission Name: |
To be in compliance with planetary protection policy, the Mission shall provide an itemized list of bulk organic materials (defined as; all carbon-containing compounds including payload biological materials but excluding carbides, carbonates, cyanides and simple oxides of carbon [i.e., CO and CO2]) presented at the same level as the MIUL/materials list, as used on the flight hardware, estimated actual (in kg) for organic materials present in amounts larger than 1kg; “small amounts” for organic materials present in amounts between 1kg and 0.1kg, and; “traces” for identifiable organic materials present in amounts less than 0.1kg (Add more lines as needed for each line entry).
1) Adhesives and Potting Compounds
e.g., RTV/Silicones (DOW, Nusil, Hysol); polyurethanes such as arathane/solithane conformal coatings; epoxies such as Scotchweld, CFRP resin.
