Anionisista

Anionisista is a neologism used to describe a person who studies, works with, or foregrounds the roles of anions in chemistry and related sciences. It is not a formal academic title; rather, it surfaces in online glossaries, popular science writing, and some science fiction as a convenient label for practitioners or enthusiasts who emphasize negatively charged ions in their work.

Etymology: The coinage combines “anion,” the negatively charged ion, with the -ista suffix found in other professional or ideological terms. The form is modeled to suggest specialization or advocacy rather than a distinct profession.

Scope and practice: In real-world chemistry, researchers who study anions are usually called anion chemists or inorganic/physical chemists. The term anionisista is sometimes used in speculative or educational contexts to describe characters or researchers who focus on synthesis, detection, stabilization, transport, and application of anions. Applications appear in electrolyte design for batteries, catalysis, environmental remediation, and sensory materials. In fiction, anionisistas may be portrayed as technologists with the ability to manipulate anions, illustrating themes of molecular control and materials design.
