Morphology

unsusceptibility = unsusceptible (transparent) = un + susceptible + ity

Formed by adding the noun-forming suffix '-ity' to the adjective 'unsusceptible', yielding the state of not being susceptible.

Etymology

Unsusceptibility begins with un- meaning 'not', and the rest comes from a root meaning 'to take', the same idea you see in accept and capture. So unsusceptibility is the state of 'not being taken' or 'not being affected' by something.
