UNDERPOLED COPPER

Domain	Definition
Mining	To reduce to metal the cuprous oxide from blister copper produced in a converter, green poles are pushed into the molten material to bring the percentage of dissolved oxygen below 0.5. If this reaction (which results in flat-topped ingots having a smooth fracture) is incomplete, the ingot fractures too readily and has a darker color. This shows it to have been insufficiently reduced, or underpoled. See also:tough pitch. (references)
