Definition
Capable of being cleansed or purified; able to be cleaned or made pure without damage.
Etymology
From 'cleanse' + suffix '-able.' While 'cleanse' and 'clean' are closely related, 'cleanse' emphasizes purification and spiritual or thorough removal of impurities.
Kelly Says
Medieval alchemists obsessed over cleansable metals—the idea that lead could be 'cleansed' into gold drove centuries of experimentation and was the hidden engine of practical chemistry!
