The effect of addition of Pomegranate Peel (PP) concentration on optical properties of poly styrene have been studied in the wavelength range 200-800 nm. The absorption coefficient, energy gap, refractive index and extinction coefficient have been determined. The results show that the optical constants change with increase of PP concentration.
