PURPOSE:To obtain excellent modified synthetic fiber having water-absorbing properties, moisture-absorbing properties, heat resistance and dyeability, etc., characteristic of natural fiber with keeping durability and crease resistance by covering the surface of the synthetic fiber with crosslinked microorganism cellulose. CONSTITUTION:For instance, microorganism is cultured in a component containing cellulose and heteropolysaccharide having cellulose as a chain to generate filmy microorganism cellulose in gelled state. Next, said cellulose is mixed with polyfunctional isocyanate-based component as crosslinking agent and coated on the surface of synthetic fiber (thread state, string state or cloth state, etc.) such as nylon or polyester, etc., then sufficiently crosslinked to afford excellent modified synthetic fiber having water-absorbing properties, moisture- absorbing properties, heat resistance and dyeability and dry touch, etc., characteristic of cotton as natural fiber with keeping higher durability and crease resistance than conventional synthetic fiber. |
