viskosedemper
Viskosedemper, also known as viscose, is a type of rayon, a regenerated cellulose fiber. It is produced by dissolving cellulose in a solution of sodium hydroxide and carbon disulfide, then precipitating it in a bath of sulfuric acid. The resulting fiber is then washed, dried, and spun into yarn or fabric. Viscosedemper is known for its softness, shine, and ability to absorb moisture, making it a popular choice for clothing, especially in the form of silk-like fabrics. It is also used in the production of various other textiles, such as upholstery and home furnishings. Viscosedemper is often referred to as "artificial silk" due to its silky appearance and texture. However, it is important to note that viscosedemper is not a true silk, as it is not produced by silkworms. The production process of viscosedemper involves the use of chemicals, which can raise environmental and health concerns. As a result, there has been a growing interest in developing more sustainable alternatives to viscosedemper.
