Rayon Fibers Are Used In Making Clothing and Non-Clothing Textiles for Retaining the Body Heat In Changing Temperatures

  Rayon fibers are widely used in textile industries in regions such as Mexico, Germany, and Japan among others. Rayon fiber is a natural regenerated fibrous cellulose fiber, which is made of plant materials like cellulose and other forest products. It has almost the same molecular structure as natural cellulose. It was first used in industries, but owing to its high moisture absorption limits it is mainly used in fabrics. Though rayon has some benefits over cellulose fibers, its water absorption rate is much less. In industries and textiles where high moisture absorption is a requirement, rayon serves well. Its most important quality is, like all the natural fibers, rayon fiber is a high thermal insulator and can retain up to 95% of energy when laid flat against a heat source. Rayon wool is often compared to cotton because it has similar thermal qualities. But its power to retain its energy is unmatched and is what makes it a great insulator. With the right care, rayon can last a li
