stibinated
|sti-bi-nat-ed|
/stɪˈbɪneɪtɪd/
(stibinate)
treated with antimony
Etymology
'stibinate' originates from New Latin, specifically from the Latin word 'stibium', where 'stib-' meant 'antimony'.
'stibium' (Latin) supplied the stem 'stib-' used in New Latin formations such as 'stibinatus'; this New Latin chemical-forming pattern produced the English term 'stibinate' in modern chemical nomenclature.
Initially it meant 'related to or containing antimony' and this core meaning has largely remained unchanged in modern usage.
