Morphology

tensionless = tension (transparent) = tension + less

Standard adjectival formation: 'tension' (state of strain) + the productive suffix '-less' meaning 'without', yielding 'without tension'.

Etymology

The word tensionless comes from tension, from an old Latin word meaning 'to stretch', and the ending -less, meaning 'without'. So tensionless means 'without stretch', which is why we use it for something free from strain or stress.
