In this work, proton and deuteron stopping due to free and bound electrons in partially ionized plasma targets is evaluated. The stopping of target free electrons is calculated using the dielectric formalism, well described in our previous works. In the case of target bound electrons, a short expression to calculate their contribution to the stopping is used, where mean excitation energies are obtained by means of the Hartree-Fock method. Experiments with different kinds of plasmas are analyzed. For LiH plasma, estimated plasma stopping fits experimental data very well, within the error bars, recognizing the well-known enhanced plasma stopping. In the case of CH_{2} plasma, we obtain, from estimated ionization, that total stopping power increases when target electron density does. Our estimations are very similar to experimental data which show the same behavior with target free and bound electron density. Finally, in Al plasma, we compare directly our calculations with experimental data finding a very close agreement, where both stoppings have the same dependence on target ionicity. All these comparisons verify our theoretical model which estimates the proton or deuteron energy loss in partially ionized plasmas.
