PURPOSE:To obtain microfiber cloth having extremely natural surface and good feeling unattainable in conventional dyed fabric by weaving a conjugate fiber having thick-and-thin form and composed of a combination of polymers having different dissolution rates and dissolving and removing one of the polymers from the woven fabric. CONSTITUTION:New woven microfiber cloth having pongee-tone appearance is produced by preparing a conjugate fiber composed of at least two kinds of polymer components having different dissolution rates and-alternately arranged in the fiber cross-section or in a sea-island state and having thick parts and thin parts in the direction of fiber axis, weaving fabric by using the conjugate fiber as the warp or the weft and dissolving and removing one of the components of the conjugate fiber of the woven fabric, thereby fibrillating the other component to form a loop of the fibrillated fiber protruding from the cloth surface and enabling the dyeing of the thick part of the conjugate fiber to dark color compared with the other parts to form a stripe pattern. The present invention also relates to a process for the production of the cloth. |
