Towards the end of the

nineteenth century, scientists were

successful in obtaining a fibre having

properties similar to that of silk. Such a

fibre was obtained by chemical

treatment of wood pulp. This fibre was

called rayon or artificial silk. Although

rayon is obtained from a natural source,

wood pulp, yet it is a man-made fibre. It

is cheaper than silk and can be woven

like silk fibres. It can also be dyed in a

wide variety of colours. Rayon is mixed

with cotton to make bed sheets or mixed

with wool to make carpets.
