dissolver

/dɪˈzɑɫvɝ/ noun

One who, or that which, dissolves or dissipates.

Word Origin From Latin dis- 'apart' and solvere 'to loosen' — literally 'loosen apart.' To dissolve is to break something down into its parts. A dissolver is an agent that does that. The same root solvere gives us solve (loosen a problem), resolve (loosen again), solvent (loosening agent), and absolve (loosen from guilt). The PIE root *leu- 'to loosen, divide' also underlies lose and loose.
