crystallizable
Able to solidify
Crystallizable describes something capable of forming crystals—substances that can solidify into ordered, geometric structures.
The term appears most often in chemistry and materials science: crystallizable polymers, crystallizable sugars.
A crystallizable compound has the molecular properties needed to arrange itself into a crystal lattice under the right conditions.
