# 173.198 Nickel carbonyl.
(a) Nickel carbonyl must be packed in specification steel or nickel cylinders as prescribed for any compressed gas except acetylene.

Visual inspection must be in accordance with CGA Pamphlet C-6 (IBR, see § 171.7 of this subchapter).
(b) Packagings for nickel carbonyl must conform to § 173.40.
