solidifier
Makes liquids firm
A solidifier is something that causes a substance to become solid.
The term appears most often in industrial and scientific contexts—chemicals that harden liquid waste, additives that firm up food products, or agents that set resins and polymers: Add the solidifier to the epoxy before it cures.
The word functions as the agent noun of solidify.
