condensable
Able to shrink
Condensable describes something capable of being condensed—compressed into smaller space or converted from gas to liquid.
Steam is condensable when it meets a cold surface.
A lengthy report may be condensable into a summary.
Also spelled condensible.
The condensable gases were captured and recycled.
