Types of Viscose
Viscose is manufactured in multiple ways, and each production method results in a different type of fabric. The different types of viscose fabrics are listed below: Nitrocellulose This is the first type of viscose under the name "artificial silk," "Nitrocellulose rayon" Acetate Acetate was previously referred to as rayon, because both the fabrics are made from cellulose. Cuprammonium rayon Earlier manufacturers started using cuprammonium rayon for textiles. Lyocell Lyocell is in reality chemically different from rayon. However, these two substances are nearly identical in both feel and durability, lyocell is commonly considered to be a type of rayon. Modal This type of viscose is produced with spinning reconstituted cellulose derived from trees. Modal viscose/rayon pills less than cotton and is stronger and more tensile than normal viscose, and it is frequently used in combination with cotton and spandex to make household and apparel items.
