Designed to protect against or reduce harm from radiation exposure.
From anti- (against) + radiation (the emission of energy as particles or waves). Radiation comes from Latin 'radiare.' This compound developed in the nuclear age as radiation became a recognized hazard.
The invention of 'antiradiation clothing' and suits is relatively recent—humans didn't need words for this protection until the 20th century when nuclear science revealed invisible dangers!
