分解 / 崩壊 Explanation: I suggest "degrade" or "decompose"... The process of dilution, even by common sense, involves a solvent and a solute... (So "self" sounds very confusing) One plausible situation is that the solute itself decomposes or degrades or disappears - so the over concentration of the original chemical goes down.
