anionic
Bearing negative charge
Anionic describes something relating to or containing anions—negatively charged ions.
The term appears most often in chemistry and biochemistry: anionic detergents, anionic surfactants, anionic polymerization.
An anionic compound carries a negative electrical charge, as opposed to cationic (positively charged) or nonionic (uncharged).
