Considering the kinds of words that are in the Official Scrabble Dictionary, it is kind of suprising that adulteration is not.
(If it were, the 7 letter suffix "eration" could be added on to adult!) That would be a 12 letter word, the scrabble board is 15 letters long and 15 letters high - plenty of room!
However, it's not a question of length of the word, even adulterate isn't in the Scrabble dictionary. But "adunc" - to be bent inward - is!
Adulteration: to debase by adding inferior material: to adulterate milk with water
