What comes after decuplicate?
triplicate
Duplicate triplicate quadruplicate what's next?
quintuplicate sextuplicate septuplicate octuplicate nonuplicate decuplicate
Duplicate triplicate What about 20 times?
There is no recognised word in any dictionary, but we could form one by logic. A decahedron is a ten-sided object and decuplicate is a recognised word meaning ten copies. Similarly an icosahedron is a twenty-sided object and so we might say icosuplicate for twenty copies.

Duplicate triplicate quadruplicate what's next?

Do nonuplicate and decuplicate come after octuplicate?
Apparently most Latin prefixes give up at some point, because neither "nonuplicate" nor "decuplicate" appear in major dictionaries. Another version of 10, "decemplicate", is listed in some generated word lists as well. The next two would likely be "undecuplicate" and "duodecuplicate" (11 and 12 copies). (for further Latin-based prefixes, see the related link)

What is the definition of decemplicate?
The word "decemplicate" would mean making or having TEN copies. Another version is "decuplicate". Neither of these words is listed in major dictionaries. Many spell-checkers do not even recognize eight (octuplicate and octuplet are valid forms). This is obviously beyond the capability of carbon paper.
