| absorbance |
Used mostly by chemists, the negative logarithm (base 10) of the transmittance of an absorbing sample, often corrected for reflection by its container. Despite its name, absorbance is a consequence of both scattering and absorption, although scattering is usually assumed to be negligible. To within a constant multiplier, absorbance is absorption optical thickness and depends on the physical thickness of the sample. Compare absorptance.

| absorbance |
The ability of a substance to transform radiant energy into a different form, usually with a resulting rise in temperature. Mathematically, absorbance is the negative logarithm to the base 10 of transmittance.

| absorbance |
Ratio of radiant energy absorbed by a body to the corresponding absorption of a blackbody at the same temperature. Absorbance equals emittance on bodies whose temperature is not changing. (A = 1 - R - T, where R is the reflectance and T is the transmittance.).
