What is the difference between viscose and rayon?
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.

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.

Rayon is a versatile fiber made from regenerated cellulose, and common examples include fabrics such as viscose, modal, and lyocell. Viscose rayon is often used in clothing like dresses and blouses, while modal is popular for its softness in items like underwear and bed linens. Lyocell, known for its eco-friendly production process, is commonly found in activewear and home textiles. These rayon types are favored for their breathability, drape, and comfort.

Viscose, or rayon, is the first viable manufactured fiber. It is made from wood pulp, so therefore is not a synthetic product. Synthetic products would include those made of thermoplastic or oil-based products, examples being: nylon or polyester.
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.
