Artificial silk (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

rayon

'artificial silk' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for rayon that I've seen before include "Synthetic silk-like fabric" , "Artificial fibre" , "Or any (anag) -- fibre" , "Silklike material" , "Man-made fabric" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun, The Guardian, the Sydney Morning Herald, the King Feature Syndicate and The Telegraph.
