: isotérmico

During the experiment, the scientists monitored isothermic reactions that maintained a stable temperature throughout.

Examples

An isothermic process keeps the temperature constant, which is crucial in many scientific experiments.
Most terrestrial isothermic and posithermic creatures can survive just above freezing temperatures as long as they don't stay that way too long.

Fiction book (2002)
Isothermic curves on the chart clearly indicated zones where the temperature remained unchanged.

Morphology

isothermic = isotherm (semi-transparent) = iso + therm + ic

Formed by adding the adjective-forming suffix '-ic' to the noun 'isotherm', so the derivation at this step is regular and predictable.

Etymology

Isothermic breaks into two parts: iso- meaning 'equal' and therm- meaning 'heat', the same therm you see in thermometer or thermal. So an isothermic process or line shows places with the same temperature, which is why it means 'constant temperature'.
