I guess you could call it semi-synthetic...it's made by dissolving cellulose in a chemical and forcing the resulting resin through extruder nozzles.

What is siro rayon in clothing?

Siro refers to the way the thread is spun, and rayon is the type of material. Siro yarn is two strands twisted together into a 2-ply yarn as the fibers are freshly spun, rather than later in the process, thus eliminating stray fibers and creating a stronger, smoother yarn. Rayon is a synthetic material (technically "semisynthetic" or "artificial," since it is not fully synthetic) created from natural cellulose fibers (most commonly wood pulp) that has been dissolved and re-shaped into cellulose filaments. Rayon is a common inexpensive "copycat" for materials such as silk, but can be notoriously finicky for consumers, especially when it comes to wrinkling and shrinkage. "Siro rayon," therefore, refers to a specifically woven type of rayon. I have seen siro rayon listed as a component in apparel such as stretch jeans.
