Copper is an aquatic hazard?
I got a package today with the "dead tree & fish" label on it & a
13-page safety data sheet inside. It turns out that desoldering braid is so labelled because copper is "aquatic acute 1, H400" and "aquatic chronic 1, H410". (The other component, rosin, is marked as "skin sens. 1, H317".) I'm a bit surprised that copper is apparently safe to contain & carry drinking water but a hazard if dropped in water outside. What am I missing here? |
