Viscose rayon is structurally similar to cotton, a soft man-made fibre commonly used in clothes, upholstery and carpets.Viscose has very similar properties to silk, it is shiny and soft but it does not have the same elasticity as other yarns and if used in large quantity. Viscose is often mixed with wool or other yarns to give more elasticity it.
Polyester yarn is a bi-product of oil refinement and has similar characteristics to Heat-Set Polypropylene yarn. Polyester yarn can be spun thinner (finer) and has shiny (silk look) properties.
