liquefiable
Able to melt
Liquefiable describes something capable of being turned into liquid.
Solids that melt under heat are liquefiable, as are gases that condense under pressure.
The term appears most often in technical contexts: liquefiable natural gas, liquefiable soils (which can behave like liquid during earthquakes).
