All substances absorb and reflect light to varying degrees. Some also transmit light.
A material that reflects or absorbs any light that strikes it is opaque.Tranlucent or transparent materials allow some or all light to pass through.
A material that reflects and absorbs all light that strikes its surface is called a perfect absorber, or a blackbody. It absorbs all incident light and reflects none, resulting in a black appearance.
It is an 'opaque' materiel.
No material reflects all light. Silver is pretty close, which is why it is used for mirrors. As far as absorbing, porous black materials do the best job.

A material that reflects all light that strikes it is said to have a high albedo, while a material that absorbs all light is said to have a low albedo. Ideally, a material that reflects all light is considered a perfect reflector, while a material that absorbs all light is considered a perfect absorber (blackbody). These extremes are theoretical constructs and not typically found in natural materials.
Black is the color that reflects light the least, as it absorbs most of the light that strikes it rather than reflecting it.

A measure of how a substance absorbs and reflects light
An opaque object transmits very little light, and therefore reflects, scatters, or absorbs most of it.
When light strikes an opaque material, the photons are absorbed by the material, causing its atoms or molecules to vibrate or heat up. The material then reflects or absorbs the light energy, depending on its properties. If the material absorbs more light energy than it emits, it will heat up. If it reflects more light, it will appear as a non-shiny surface.
