A Term Used To Describe Manufactured Fibres Composed Of Regenerated Cellulose, As Well As Manufactured Fibres Composed Of Regenerated Cellulose In Which Substituents Have Replaced Not More Than 15% Of The Hydrogens Of The Hydroxyl Groups. The Iso Generic Names Are Viscose, Modal And Cupro.
Also referred to as viscose
see Regenerated Cellulose
a man-made fiber basically composed of regenerated cellulose.
a transparent fiber obtained from processed cellulose. It was originally named artificial silk or wood silk as it closely resembled silk. It absorbs water, giving more comfort to wear as a clothing textile.
A man-made fiber created from cellulose derived from wood pulp or other vegetable matter. Possesses excellent draping qualities.
A regenerated viscous cellulostic fiber made from wood chips or the short fibers left on the cotton seeds. Procion Fiber Reactive dyes work best with Rayon - Acid dyes will just lightly stain it.
First of the mad-made fibers developed in the late 1800's. Rayon is made from chemically treated wood pulp or cotton linters by an extrusion process.
A fiber made from cotton or wood pulp by chemical process.
Made from cellulose, has many of the qualities of cotton, a n natural cellulose fiber. Rayon is strong, extremely absorbent, comes in a variety of qualities and weights, and can be made to resemble natural fabrics. Rayon does not melt but burns at high temperatures. The word "Rayon" is a man-made word. Kenneth Lord, Sr., coined the phrase in 1924 during and industry sponsored contest to find a name for what was known as artificial silk.
The generic name for a cellulose-based man-made fiber. Rayon has characteristics similar to those of cotton, linen, and ramie.
Rayon, the first synthetic fiber produced from mostly cellulose, greatly resembles cotton in its chemical properties. Rayon is weakened by water and often shrinks after washing. It can be woven and knitted into many types of fabrics and used for many purposes.
a synthetic silklike fabric
(fiber/fabric). A synthetic, silk-like fabric, but less expensive than silk. Does not trap heat against the body, and absorbs moisture. It is a comfortable fabric against skin, making it popular for lingerie.
A synthetic fiber produced from wood pulp that has been chemically treated.
Similar texture to silk, part synthetic, part natural.
Neither a natural fiber nor a man-made one, it breathes like cotton but is much less sturdy. Versatile rayon is inexpensive and can be woven to feel like linen or wool. It is soft and drapeable but does wrinkle easily.
An artificial fibre made from cotton or wood pulp by chemical process.
A generic term for filaments made from various solutions of modified cellulose by pressing or drawing the cellulose solution through an orifice and solidifying it in the form of a filament. Rayon has a soft hand, high moisture absorbency and retention, and good dyeability and washability.
A fabric or thread made from wood fibers.
A manufactured fiber composed of regenerated cellulose, derived from wood pulp, cotton linters, or other vegetable matter.
A manufactured fiber made in a wide range of types. It is used sparingly in the contract industry because of poor flammability ratings.
manufactured fibre composed of regenerated cellulose derived from processed wood pulp.
When silk was in short supply during W.W.II, the military developed rayon as a substitute for parachutes! Typically it is blended with other fibers, such as polyester.
Smooth, highly absorbent man‑made fabric made from cellulosic material.
A fine smooth material having an appearance similar to silk. Rayon is made from synthetic fibres.
A natural textile fiber used as a fabric.
(textiles) Rayon is processed from wood pulp (viscose). When wet it loses 70% of its strength. Viscose is non-static. Viscose rayon is the type in widest use. One of the most used economy substitutes for natural fibres. Rayon can be processed to resemble many fibres.
A synthetic fiber that's derived from the cell wall of plants. Rayon is famous for its rich luster, pilling resistance and absorption of dye colorings.
a term used to describe fibres made from regenerated cellulose (see also viscose, modal and acetate).
Manufactured fiber composed of regenarated celluose. Different types of rayon includes viscose rayon (made from wood chips) cuprammonium rayon made from cotton linters, and topel and corvel rayon.
A silk-like fabric made from wood pulp, cotton linters, or other vegetable matter. It is a comfortable fabric against the skin and absorbs moisture. It is not a strong fabric.
A synthetic textile fiber made from cellulose.
Man made. Cellulosic based from wood pulp.
A synthetic fabric with a luxuriant silk-like feel that costs less than silk. estraint device designed that limits freedom of movement.
A man-made fiber derived from the cell wall of plants. Admirable characteristics: luster, soft hand, pilling resistance and absorption of dyes.
Rayon is a transparent fibre made of processed cellulose. Cellulose fibres from wood or cotton are dissolved in alkali to make a solution called viscose, which is then extruded through a nozzle, or spinneret, into an acid bath to reconvert the viscose into cellulose. A similar process, using a slit instead of a hole, is used to make cellophane. ;
Refers to a regenerated cellulosic fiber similar to cotton in its physical characteristics. Rayon is primarily used today for embroidery applications. Madiera is a company that markets rayon embroidery thread around the world. Currently A&E does not produce a rayon embroidery thread.
A natural fiber created from wood pulp, it usually has good drape and a soft hand. Itâ€(tm)s appropriate for tops, shirts, skirts and dresses.
A synthetic cord material used in the construction of casings and belts of a tire.
The generic term for fibers, staple, and continuous filament yarns composed of regenerated cellulose, but also frequently used to describe fibers obtained
(fiber/fabric) - A synthetic fabric with a luxurious silk-like feel. Rayon is less expensive than silk, comfortable against the skin, absorbs moisture and does not trap heat against the body.
A softly textured synthetic fabric with the appearance of silk or wool.
Rayon is a generic term for a manmade fiber derived from regenerated cellulose.
Any of a group of smooth textile fibers made from regenerated cellulose by extrusion through minute holes.
A generic term for a synthetic fiber made from cellulose, which is soft, highly absorbent, has a lustrous appearance, and offers good drapability.
Rayon is a manufactured regenerated cellulosic fiber.
