solidifier

/sɔ.li.di.fje/ noun

someone who or something that solidifies

Word Origin From Latin solidus 'solid' and facere 'to make' — literally 'thing that makes solid.' The -ify suffix (from facere) is a great example of how Latin 'make' became our 'cause to be' ending. The same facere root gives us factory, effect, perfect, and solidify. The breakdown solid+ify+er shows the maker of solidness.
