<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method for photo-modifying natural fibers, which is an energy-saving type, and by which the dyeability and the like of fibers or a fiber product containing natural fibers can safely be modified in a simple process at room temperature, and to provide an apparatus therefor. Ž<P>SOLUTION: This method for photo-modifying the natural fibers is characterized by irradiating fibers or fiber product containing the natural fibers with light in the presence of a compound producing a radical by the irradiation of light. The compound producing the radical by the irradiation of light is preferably a peroxide. A mode in which the fibers or fiber product is treated with a reducing agent after the irradiation of light is also included. Ž<P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2009,JPO&INPIT Ž |
