Fissureless

/ˈfɪʃərləs/ adjective

Definition

Without fissures; smooth and unbroken without cracks, crevices, or deep divisions.

Etymology

Composed of 'fissure' (from Latin 'fissura,' meaning cleft) + the English suffix '-less' (meaning absence of), creating an adjective that describes the absence of cracks or divisions.

Kelly Says

A fissureless surface is the dream of any potter or plasterer—it means no tiny cracks will form and widen as the material shrinks or expands with temperature changes.
