Even when the absorbent processing is not carried out, it is suitably used for a fabric which is semi-permanently absorbed, that is, it can absorb sweat at the time of wearing quickly, is excellent in comfort, is soft, To provide an absorbent fabric. The water absorbent fabric according to the present invention comprises a polyester fiber in which 95 mol% or more of the repeating units are ethylene terephthalate, a linear chain oligomer component of a terminal carboxylic acid is present on the surface of the polyester fiber, and JIS L0217 The water absorption by the JIS L1907 dripping method after washing 30 times by the 103 C method is 5 seconds or less. Preferably, the polyester fiber contains 0.005 to 1% by weight of S element. |
