摘要:
The invention provides: a process for producing zeolite-coated glass fibers in which a silicon compound and an aluminum compound can be simultaneously imparted to glass fibers through one immersion treatment to conduct a zeolite-yielding reaction; and a fibrous structure produced by the process. The process for producing zeolite-coated glass fibers of the invention comprises treating glass fibers with an aqueous solution which contains a silicon compound, an aluminum compound, and sodium hydroxide each dissolved therein, the total amount (Y) of the silicon compound and the aluminum compound in terms of silicon oxide and aluminum oxide, respectively, being 0.0703-1.6403% by mass and the sodium hydroxide concentration (X) in the aqueous solution being 4-15% by mass, the relationship between the total amount (Y) in terms of the sum of silicon oxide and aluminum oxide and the sodium hydroxide concentration (X) being represented by the following expression (I). Y≦0.1427X−0.5006 (I)
