Morphology

pasteurized = pasteurize (semi-transparent) = pasteur + ize + d

Formation from the verb 'pasteurize' with the regular adjective/past-participle suffix '-ed' is morphologically regular, but the root is a proper name-derived form rather than a transparent lexical root.

Etymology

The word pasteurized is named after the French scientist Pasteur, who showed that gently heating liquids kills harmful germs. So pasteurized milk or juice has been warmed to make it safer to drink and to last longer.
