it's just regenerated celluse. if you buy lyocell, it's completely free from toxic chemicals. it contains no plasticizers, for example. it's different from other synthetic fibers in that it is "already done" by the time it gets extracted from the pulp, while synthetics are usually polymerized from smaller substances (monomers). as a result, those monomers as well as plasticizers can stay in the finished synthetic polymer and can have whatever negative effects.
