The process of converting a substance into an arsonate or introducing arsenic compounds into a material.
From arsonate with the -tion suffix indicating a process or action. This technical term emerged from chemistry laboratories in the 19th-20th centuries.
Many scientific processes get -tion added to make them nouns—carbonation, oxidation, arsonation—showing how chemistry builds vocabulary systematically like a naming algorithm.
