Detailed Solution

Rayon is similar to silk in appearance.
Rayon is a semi-synthetic fibre whereas silk is a natural fibre. Rayon is prepared from wood pulp through a chemical process. It is therefore semi-synthetic fibre. It has a similar structure to cellulose. Silk is obtained from silkworms and thus it is a protein fibre. Silk is an expensive clothing material and rayon is even more expensive.
