It is also called as Semi synthetic silk due to Following Reasons :

---> It is produced from Wood pulp by chemical treatment.
--->Wood pulp is dissolved in alkaline solution like NaOH solution to form a sticky liquid called as Viscose.
---> Viscose is forced to pass through the tiny holes of a metal cylinder called as Spinneret into a solution of sulphuric acid where silk like fibre is obtained.

Hence Rayon is called As Synthetic silk and it is cheaper than natural silk .
