词汇 | rayon |
词根词缀 | 词源: 1924, chosen by National Retail Dry Goods Association of America, probably from Fr. rayon "beam of light, ray," from rai (see ray (1)), which was also used in M.E. as a name for a type of cloth. So called because it is shiny. A more marketable alternative than the original patented name, artificial silk (1884), or the intervening attempt, Glos, which was "killed by ridicule" ("Draper's Record," June 14, 1924) |
