Title: Stainless Steel Health Dangerous
Post by: guruji on April 30, 2009, 05:03:39 PM
Hi guys is this true that stainless steel emits chromium that is dangerous to health. ???
A guy told me better to use graphite.
Chromium can make lung cancer and even kidney failure.
Any suggestions about this?
Thanks

if your using the stainless steel for electrolysis you shouldn't be breathing in the gases anyway...

It's hexavalent chromium that can be a health hazard, which can be produced during electrolysis.
