CS absorbs though the spectum depending on size. Smallest particles absorb in the ultraviolet band, then that is followed by violet, blue, green, yellow, orange, red, and finally infrared. Since you cannot see ultraviolet and infrared, absotption in these bands are invisible to the naked eye and appear clear. Marshall
