Cool deal.
Kobuchi, that Copper2+ is called cuprus or something and I believe Cu3+ is cupric. I'm pretty sure the Cl- ions are jumping on to it. I guess it would be cuprus dicloride or copper dicloride or something (my nomenclature is really rusty, as is my chemistry).
At any rate, NaCl is ionic and than means when it goes into solution, the Na+ and Cl- are "readily available". The Cl- really likes the positively charged Cu ions and isn't out for the heatercore or waterblock's best interest. In other words, if your security for a Cu community, Cl ions aren't exactly welcome guests, and if they are present, your going to be faced with some kidnappings. This is why you won't ever see anyone (who knows what they are doing) recommending or using Clorine bleach (I have no clue what the molecular structure is for it or where the functional groups are, but I know there's clorine in there somewhere lol). It's a great bio killer...but also Cu component killer too.
If someone feels I'm way off, then feel free to say so (I know you would anyway lol). I've got to crack open my organic text book again lol.
