Coagmentation

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In alchemy, coagmentation was the act of melting down a material, by adding certain powders, and afterwards reducing the whole into a concrete, or solid.

In modern usage, the term refers to the act of joining, or the state of being joined, together.
