Depolarize   Listen
verb
Depolarize  v. t.  (past & past part. depolarized; pres. part. depolarizing)  
1.
(Opt.) To deprive of polarity; to reduce to an unpolarized condition. Note: This word has been inaccurately applied in optics to describe the effect of a polarizing medium, as a crystalline plate, in causing the reappearance of a ray, in consequence of a change in its plane of polarization, which previously to the change was intercepted by the analyzer.
2.
(Elec.) To free from polarization, as the negative plate of the voltaic battery.
