Morphology

liquidizer = liquidize (transparent) = liquid + ize + er

Formed from the verb 'liquidize' + agent/instrument suffix '-er'; this is a productive and predictable device-naming pattern.

Etymology

Liquidizer comes from liquid ('fluid') plus the ending -er ('one that does'), so the word literally names something that makes things liquid. So a liquidizer is a kitchen machine, like a blender, that turns food or drinks into a smooth, drinkable mix.
