cleanness

Absence of grime

Cleanness is the state of being clean—free from dirt, contamination, or impurities.

The word covers physical cleanliness the cleanness of the kitchen and abstract purity the cleanness of his conscience.

Though cleanliness is more common in everyday speech, cleanness appears in contexts emphasizing a quality rather than a practice: the cleanness of the cut, the cleanness of the lines in her design.
