The substance that slows down a chemical reaction is an inhibitor. Instead you could also call an inhibitor an anticatalyst.

1. (chemistry) a substance that retards a chemical reaction or diminishes the activity of a catalyst
It is a catalyst. A catalyst is a chemical species that alters the rate(which means it can increase or decrease the rate) of a chemical reaction without itself undergoing any change. Such catalysts which slow down a chemical reaction are called negative catalysts or poison.
Probably the word you're looking for is "inhibitors".
A substance that slows down a chemical reaction is called Rectants A substance that slows down a chemical reaction is called Rectants
A substance that slows down a chemical reaction is called a reactant
A substance that slows down a chemical reaction is called a reactant
The substance that slows down a chemical reaction is an Inhibitor.
Chemical reactions can be either sped up or slowed down by catalysts.
A substance that slows down a chemical reaction is called an inhibitor.

Usually:decreasing concentrationlowering the temperaturesometimes lowering pressureremoving any catalyst
A substance by itself will not slow down a chemical reaction; factors require change, such as cooling the reactants or lowering the concentration, to do so. Adding another chemical or substance that happens to slow a reaction often does so by actually interfering with the reaction and replacing or preventing it outright, and there is not a name for chemicals that do this -?inhibitor?-, since a chemical may do this to one reaction, but be a catalyst to another.Added:decrease surface area/ remove catalyst/ decrease temperature/ decrease concentration/ add inhibitor/ dilute reactants/ separate reactants/
In chemistry a catalyst is a substance which, when added to other substances, allows them to change while itself remaining unchanged.
It's called an inhibitor, and it's the opposite of a catalyst.
an inhibitor
if at the end of the chemical THAT substance is unchanged .That substance is a catalyst. If it slows donw the reaction, it is called an inhibitor.
