Morphology

chronal = chron + al

The word is transparently formed from the time-related bound root 'chron' and the adjective suffix '-al'.

Etymology

The word chronal comes from the Greek root chronos, which means 'time'. You can see the same root in chronicle and synchronize, so chronal means 'relating to time'.
