Morphology
trimerization = trimer (semi-transparent) = tri + mer + ization
The word is formed regularly from the technical base 'trimer' plus '-ization', but the base itself is specialized and may not be familiar to many learners.
Etymology
The word trimerization breaks into tri- 'three' and mer 'part', the same mer you see in polymer. So it means the process of three parts or molecules joining together to form one three-part unit.
