The process or result of discoloring; the act of changing, spoiling, or losing color.
From discolor plus -ization (a suffix forming nouns for processes). Similar to discoloration, but emphasizes the process more formally and scientifically.
While 'discoloration' is common, 'discolorization' sounds more technical and scientific—like something a chemist or materials scientist would use to precisely describe what happens to a substance's color!
