DGT has never mentioned the use of carbonyl. There powder is pure nickel. The surface of the particles are processed with a proprietary process to resurface the particle with a Rutile structure.
Please show me a reference to the use of carbonyl in this process. In fact, the use of carbonyl is incompatible with the rutile process.
