deoxidised
Had oxygen extracted
Deoxidised is the British spelling of deoxidized—having had oxygen removed.
The term appears most often in metallurgy, where deoxidised copper or steel has been treated to remove oxygen that would otherwise make the metal brittle or porous: deoxidised copper wire, fully deoxidised steel.
