Abstract |
Information is provided on inorganic copper compounds, which have an annual production of at least 1 million pounds, and for organic copper compounds, with an annual production of at least 100,000 pounds. These compounds include: copper (7440508), metal, copper-acetate (142712), copper-arsenate (7778418), copper-carbonate (12069691), cuprous-chloride (7758896), cupric-chloride (7447394), copper-cyanide (544923), copper-2-ethylhexanoate (149111), copper-hydroxide (20427592), copper-8-hydroxyquinolate (10380286), copper-naphthenate (1338029), copper-nitrate (3251238), copper-oleate (1120441), cuprous-oxide (1317391), cupric-oxide (1317380), copper-sulfate (7758987), and copper-sulfide (1317404). Information includes synonyms, chemical structure, physical and chemical properties, manufacturing processes and volumes, uses, manufacturers, distributors, and occupational exposures. Biological effects are reported as discovered through animal studies and include data on subchronic exposures, chronic exposure, carcinogenicity, mutagenicity, target organ toxicity, ongoing studies and suggestions for further reading. |
