Rayon is different from synthetic fibre because it is obtained from wood pulp.
Eucalyptus trees are typically used to make rayon, but any plant can be utilised (such as bamboo, soy, cotton, etc.). Plant cellulose undergoes a process that uses a lot of chemicals, energy, and water to create the fibre. It is a semi-synthetic fibre regenerated in the lab for usability. Its molecular structure is the same as cellulose. Therefore, it is also called viscose.
