E. ; Frogel, J. A. ; Aaronson, M. Abstract Intermediate-band photometric measurements in the 10 region are presented for 22 infrared sources associated with southern H ii regions. The energy distributions display substantial silicate absorption with optical depths at band center (9.8 i ) ranging from 0.4 to 5.0. The depth of the 9.8 band is related to the depth of 6 cm formaldehyde absorption in the sense that T(9.8 must exceed 2 for r(H2CO) to exceed 0.03. The effect of the silicate absorption is to attentuate the intrinsic 1-25 luminosities by as much as a factor of 5.
