Abstract

Abstract Acrylic fibers having excellent pilling resistance are disclosed. The acrylic fibers have a plurality of elongated wedge-shaped concave depressions extending into the fiber surface. And the acrylic fibers are produced by pre-treating acrylic fibers with a modifier to modify the outer layer of individual fiber and then after-treating the fibers with an organic solvent for acrylic fiber.
