• Resumen

  • This short article suggests the use of the Sure/Pac cylinder system as an alternative to glass stoppered bottles for the storage of solutions of yellow phosphorous in carbon dioxide. The cylinders are virtually unbreakable, and their wider base makes them more resistant to tipping over than a glass bottle. The ball valve allows a positive, leak resistant closure which may be additionally secured by the use of a brass cylinder plug.
