You got the wrong article? That one does not mention the subject of
embrittlement or anything that goes on at solder temperatures. Try

again...

5th paragraph under "Annealing":

"When annealing copper that contains oxygen, the hydrogen in the atmosphere
must be kept to a minimum to avoid embrittlement. For temperatures lower
than about 480oC, hydrogen preferably should not exceed 1%."

And soldering happens at temperatures lower than 480oC, right?
