Definition
压缩性 is a noun formed from the verb 压缩 (to compress) plus the suffix 性 (indicating a property), meaning 'compressibility' or 'the degree to which something can be compressed'. It is commonly used in physics and engineering contexts. Note that the English gloss 'compression' could refer to the action (压缩), but 压缩性 specifically refers to the property or quality of being compressible.
