Of or relating to alkalimetry; using methods of measuring alkalinity; describing processes based on alkali measurement.
Extended form of 'alkalimetric' with the additional '-al' suffix, a redundant but historically common pattern in English scientific writing that emphasized the adjectival nature.
Adding '-al' to '-ic' was a Victorian-era obsession among scientists—they wanted to sound extremely precise, so 'alkalimetric' became 'alkalimetrical,' even though they mean almost exactly the same thing!
