求する機能を完全に賦与するのに限界があった。Conventionally, it has been fundamentally difficult to have the function of clothing for heating in the true sense of the word, where clothing itself acts as a heat generating element and has the effect of keeping the human body warm, and current clothing requires warmth. There were limits to providing complete functionality.

合体繊維である。Furthermore, it is well known that when the fiber is in the form of a thread, its surface area per unit weight is larger than in a planar form like a film. Taking advantage of this large surface area, fibers are made of ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer, and the copolymer contains 5i02°ZrO2, ZrC, MxrOz,
Ethylene, characterized in that at least one crystal fine particle selected from the group consisting of Fe2O2, Coo, CuU and M2O3 is contained in an amount of 0.5 weight factor or more based on the amount of the copolymer. It is a vinyl alcohol copolymer fiber.

線放射特性が得られることを見出したものである。It is known that the crystal fine particles used in the present invention have far-infrared radiation characteristics. The present invention provides that when such fine crystal particles are contained in ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer fibers, they are more effective than when they are contained in other thermoplastic polymer fibers (e.g., polyester fibers, nylon fibers, polyolefin fibers). It has been discovered that outstanding far-infrared radiation characteristics can be obtained.

たものである。When a fabric or sheet material made of fibers with increased far-infrared radiation characteristics is brought close to or in contact with the human body, heat generated by, for example, body temperature of 35°C or higher or heating by indoor heating, etc. It was discovered that the fabric or sheet-like material absorbs energy, accumulates it, and radiates it back to the human body as far-infrared light energy, thereby warming the body from the core.

現象と云える。Furthermore, the effect of the far-infrared radiation properties is to increase the metabolic activity of plants, promoting the assimilation of plants, accelerating the growth rate, and shortening the period of development and maturation. In this sense, the present invention can be said to be a surprising phenomenon.

れた時に人体内部の蓄熱作用があまりない。In order to produce the effect of warming the body from the core and increasing the metabolic activity of the plant, the phosphorimer constituting the fiber is an ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer. Therefore, preferably the proportion of ethylene units in the core copolymer is 30
~70 mol (up to). Furthermore, it is also an essential condition that crystal fine particles having far-infrared radiation properties as described above be added to the ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer. If the particles are non-crystalline, it is virtually impossible to emit far infrared rays of 7 μ to 17 μ, and a sufficient effect for warming the body from the core, which is the objective of the present invention, cannot be achieved. This is not preferable because it becomes difficult to achieve the effect of accelerating the growth rate of the plant. The radiation characteristics of the fiber of the present invention include wavelengths of 7μ to 17μ.
It is capable of emitting radiation in the far infrared wavelength range of 7.
When it is less than μ or more than 17 μ, there is not much heat storage effect inside the human body when it is radiated to the human body.

It may be a composite spun fiber consisting of a vinyl alcohol copolymer alone or a composite spun fiber composed of other thermoplastic polymers. The volume ratio of the ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer to the other thermoplastic polymer is preferably 10:90 to 90:10.The copolymer is at least partially exposed on the surface of the composite spun fiber. Preferably.

体のビニルアルコール単位にあるものと推測される。The ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer constituting the fiber of the present invention can be obtained by saponifying an ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer, and has a high saponification degree of 95 or more. It is preferable to have an ethylene copolymerization ratio of 30 to 70 moles, that is, a vinyl alcohol component (including an unsaponified vinyl acetate component and an acetalized vinyl alcohol component when acetalized). ) is optimally 30 to 70 molar. If the content of the vinyl alcohol component in the ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer is lowered, the amount of hydroxyl groups (OH) naturally decreases, and the level of far-infrared rays emitted from 7 μ to 17 μ is lowered, which is not preferable. From this, it is presumed that the reason why the fiber of the present invention has outstanding far-infrared radiation characteristics compared to other far-infrared radiation emitting fibers is the vinyl alcohol unit of the ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer.

の生育を促進させる効果がなくなるので好ましくない。However, if the content of the vinyl alcohol component is too high, the melt moldability will decrease and the spinnability will be poor when forming into fibers, and single filament breakage and yarn breakage will occur frequently during spinning and drawing. This is not desirable. In addition, in the case of composite spinning of the ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer containing fine particles having far-infrared radiation characteristics and other melt-formable polymers, particularly polyenalene terephthalate, etc. can be used as other melt-formable polymers. If a high melting point polymer is used, the spinning temperature will be 250°C or higher, and if the vinyl alcohol component is too large, the heat resistance at 250°C or higher will be insufficient, which is also not appropriate. Therefore, it can be said that a fiber having a high saponification degree and a vinyl alcohol component content of 30 to 70 moles is suitable for obtaining the fiber of the present invention. The content of crystal fine particles contained in the ethylene vinyl alcohol copolymer fiber of the present invention is 0 relative to the copolymer.
．． 5% by weight or more is required. If the content or adhesion amount of the fine particles is less than 0.5% by weight, fibers with highly increased far-infrared radiation characteristics of 7μ to 17μ cannot be obtained, and the fibers cannot be placed on a surface close to the human body. 7μ to 17μ when the side on which the fabric is placed is heated to 35℃ or higher
This is undesirable because the level of far-infrared rays emitted by the infrared rays decreases, and furthermore, the effect of promoting plant growth is lost.
