Abstract
We have observed ten carbon stars with different mass-loss rates using the Short Wavelength Spectrometer (SWS) on board ISO. We found that n ot only the spectral energy distribution and the dust features, but th at also that the strength and/or shape of molecular absorption feature s in the infrared spectrum varies with the near-infrared color tempera ture, i.e. with the thickness of the circurnstellar envelope.
