viscose (also known as viscose rayon) is a group of fabrics and yarns produced by extruding cellulose solution through holes in a spinneret, then coagulating the resulting filaments in an acid (the viscose process). There are several different sort of viscose fibres made by modifying this process, eg crimped, hollow, high tenacity (stronger). So viscose rayon is a particular type of cellulose fibre made using the viscose process, and it's also often called just 'viscose' or just 'rayon', because it's the commonest kind of rayon. Other kinds of rayon are cuprammonium rayon and acetate rayon.

Difference between poly viscose and poly cotton?
Poly viscose is a blend of polyester and viscose (a type of rayon), providing a smooth and lightweight fabric. Poly cotton is a blend of polyester and cotton, offering a fabric that combines the durability of polyester with the breathability and comfort of cotton. Poly viscose is often used for drapey garments, while poly cotton is commonly used for casual clothing and workwear.
Can viscose rayon shrink if washed?
Oh yes and it wrinkles badly too. I don't buy it for that reason.
What is the difference between cotton and rayon?
they are both cellulose based fiber, rayon is man made( from tree pulp) , the fibers are being extruded to form a whole fiber while cotton is natural fiber, those are the cells of the cotton plant and the have several layers, and they are hallow in their inside.
Write a short note on rayon?
Rayon is a manufactured regenerated cellulose fiber. Because it is produced from naturally occurring polymers, it is neither a truly synthetic fiber nor a natural fiber; it is a semi-synthetic fiber. Rayon is known by the names viscose rayon and art silk in the textile industry. It usually has a high lustre quality giving it a bright sheen. Some major rayon fiber uses include apparel (e.g. blouses, dresses, jackets, linings, etc.), furnishings (e.g. bedsheets, blankets), industrial uses (e.g. medical surgery products, non-woven products, tire cord) Rayon may be produced with bamboo as a raw material, and the two may be used for similar fabrics (though natural bamboo is not as smooth), rayon is so far removed from bamboo by chemical processing that the two are entirely separate.

How do you identyfy cotton yarn and viscose yarn?
If you had a length of cotton yarn and a length of viscose (or rayon, is another word for viscose), yarn and you were attempting to differentiate between the two, it is tricky. I would suggest that you wet both strands of yarn, and pull them. The rayon will stretch more and be less strong than the cotton. The rayon will also absorb more water than the cotton yarn.

What is the difference between viscose and cellulose acetate?
Viscose is a type of rayon made from regenerated cellulose, while cellulose acetate is a synthetic fiber made from wood pulp or cotton fibers chemically treated with acetic acid. Viscose tends to be more breathable and drapes well, while cellulose acetate is more resistant to shrinking and wrinkling.
What is viscose is it a type of cotton?
Viscose rayon is a man-made fiber made from wood pulp though other materials may be used. It is basically modified cellulose. Viscose is very similar to cotton and silk. (Cotton is also made of cellulose). Viscose falls somewhere in between a natural fiber and a man-made one. The raw material for viscose is cellulose which is usually reacted with caustic soda and carbon disulfide. It is reformed as fibers by spinning this viscose solution in an acid bath. Viscose rayon has a silky appearance and feel, and also has the ability to breathe in a manner similar to cotton weaves.
Difference between viscose fiber and modal fiber?
Viscose and modal both are semi synthetic fibre, where the modal has more wet strength than viscose and have less shiny than viscose
Whether the viscose fibre is synthetic fibre or natural fibre?
Rayon is a synthetic fibre.
