Cellophane is a plastic made from paper. The same wood cellulose found in paper is the basis for cellophane. The thin film is "regenerated" from cellulose that has been dissolved in caustic soda, then treated with sulfuric acid.
The same material (called viscose) that forms cellophane is the base for the "semi-synthetic" polyester fiber known as rayon.
