Filara's composition of Schachenmayr Select is:

Viscose 65% Polyamide 35% Rayon is a manufactured and regenerated cellulose artificial fiber. In Europe it was called viscose. Cellulose from wood or cotton fibers is treated with sodium hydroxide, and then mixed with carbon disulfide to form cellulose xanthate, which is then dissolved in more sodium hydroxide. The resulting viscose is extruded in an acid bath either through a cellophane slot, or through a small hole to make rayon (sometimes called viscose). The acid converts the viscose back into cellulose. A polyamide is a type of polymer that contains amide bonds. Polyamides can be found in nature, such as wool or silk, and also be synthetic, such as nylon or Kevlar. The first polyamides were synthesized by the chemical company DuPont Corporation, by the team led by the chemist Wallace Hume Carothers, who started working at the firm in 1928. Polyamides such as nylon began to be used as synthetic fibers, although they have ended up being used in the manufacture of any plastic material. Aramides are a type of polyamide in which there are aromatic groups forming part of its structure. For example, fibers are very resistant to traction like Kevlar, or fibers also very resistant to fire, such as Nomex, both marketed by DuPont.
