Nylon is slippery and smooth, it has stiffness, it can keep in body warm by trapping body heat. It does not aerate. A Good material for jackets.

Rayon is similar to cotton but has sizing added for body. When washed in water, sizing (sizing is like a soft starching) will be gone and it isn't truly rayon unless you readd sizing again. It aerates. Makes nice dresses and suits
