Morphology
exfoliation = exfoliate (semi-transparent) = ex + foli + ate + ion
The nominalization from the verb 'exfoliate' using the productive suffix '-ion' is straightforward and regular.
Etymology
Exfoliation comes from the Latin parts ex- meaning 'out' and folium meaning 'leaf'. It paints a picture of layers coming 'out' like leaves falling, so it describes the process of skin or bark peeling away in thin flakes.
