    摘要: Copper rods which are coated with an oxide scale are descaled and brightened by introducing the rod at a temperature of from 800* to 1,600* F. into a descaling zone which is substantially free of oxygen. While in the descaling zone, the rod is exposed to an atmosphere which contains at least 50 percent by volume of vapors of an organic compound. The organic compound is a lower alkyl monohydroxy alcohol, a lower alkyl polyhydroxy alcohol, a lower alkyl ketone or a mixture of any of these materials. After the reaction in the descaling zone is completed, the rod is quenched in an aqueous coolant without exposure to an oxidizing environment.
