Copra (or "coprah") is the dried coconut meat, but most of the documents consulted do not really make a distinction between "coconut oil" and "copra oil". Thus we may consider the difference (when necessary) from a technical (but not chemical) point of view: grades, refining processes, etc. 5, record 1, English, - coconut%20oil
