A very good explication in the link

Look at it!

If you have no time , I resume . ionization should be reseved to compounds giving ions such salt ex: NaCl --> Na+ +Cl- and dissociation applies to other cases

In general dissociation means
AB--> a+b

Ionization is the physical process of converting an atom or molecule into an ion by changing the difference between the number of protons and electrons.
