My botty best at summarizing from Wikipedia: viscose fibers can imitate the feel and texture of natural fibers such as silk, wool, cotton, and linen . the types that resemble silk are often called artificial silk . rayon is manufactured from naturally occurring synthetic fiber is reserved for fully synthetic fibers made from synthetic polymers . specific types of rayon include viscose, modal and lyocell . each of which differs in the manufacturing process and the properties of the viscose process dissolves cellulose pulp with aqueous sodium hydroxide in presence of carbon disulfide . the cellulose solution is used to spin the viscous solution or the rayon fiber . rayon cellulose is a linear polymer of -D-glucose units with the empirical formula (C6H10O5)n . “alkali cellulose” is allowed to depolymerize the xanthate is dissolved in aqueous sodium hydroxide (typically 2-5% w/w) the solution’s viscosity is determined by the extent of depolymerization of the Historically, several incidents have resulted in many poisonings . concerns for worker safety continue with production facilities often located in developing countries . newer control technologies have enabled improved collection of carbon disulfide . in recent years, more stringent processes based on European Standards have started to be implemented . the closed loop viscose manufacturing process allows recovery and reuse of chemicals and other natural resources . viscose or rayon may also in 1893 they formed the Viscose Syndicate to grant licences . in 1896 formed the British Viscoid Co. Ltd. to exploit the process . Plastiquarian.com. Archived from
