This application relates to a fibre structure which has, on the fibre surface, a complex oxide comprising titanium and silicon, plus a binder. In particular, it relates to a fibre structure which preferably has, on the fibre structure, a complex oxide comprising titanium and silicon, and at least one type of binder selected from alkyl silicate resins, other silicone resins and fluororesins, and it provides a fibre structure having durable deodorant properties, antibacterial properties, antifungal properties or antisoiling properties.

Fiber structure having deodorizing or antibacterial property

Cellulose fiber-containing structure

This invention is directed to a fur-like pile fabric of two-layer construction formed of guard hair fibers and under-fur fibers and used as artificial fur and a method for the production thereof. This invention produces a pile fabric 1 possessing guard hair fibers 2 having sharpened leading terminals and under-fur fibers having a satisfactorily uniform length by a method that comprises preparing a pile knitted or woven fabric with a pile yarn obtained by mixing limited-length polyester type fibers for guard hair fibers of sharpened terminals with limited-length polyester type fibers more susceptible to the action of an alkali treating agent and used for under-fur fibers, imparting an alkali treating agent 6 of a specific viscosity to the hair-raised surface of the pile knitted or woven fabric, and thereafter heat-treating the alkali-treated fabric thereby shortening the under-fur fibers and sharpening the leading terminals of the under-fur fibers.
