vitrifiable
Able to glaze
Vitrifiable describes something capable of being turned into glass or a glassy substance through heat.
Certain clays and minerals are vitrifiable, fusing into smooth, non-porous surfaces when fired at high temperatures: Theiteiteite clay vitrifiable it ideal for pottery glazes.
