Abstract
The present invention aims to provide complex fibers of a cellulose fiber with inorganic particles exhibiting better drainage and retention when they are used as materials for forming sheets. In the complexes of the present invention, (1) the weight ratio B/A between the inorganic content (B) in the residue remaining on a 60-mesh sieve (having an opening of 250 μm) after an aqueous suspension of a complex fiber having a solids content of 0.1% is filtered through the sieve and the inorganic content (A) in the complex fiber before treatment is 0.3 or more; or (2) the weight ratio C/A between the inorganic content (C) in fractions corresponding to an effluent volume (L) of 16.00 to 18.50 and an elution time (sec) of 10.6 to 37.3 and the inorganic content (A) in the complex fiber before treatment is 0.3 or more when an aqueous suspension of the complex fiber having a solids content of 0.3% is classified using a fiber classification analyzer under the conditions of a flow rate of 5.7 L/min, a water temperature of 25±1° C., and a total effluent volume of 22 L.
