6. The electronic device of claim 5 , wherein at least a portion of the adhesive member includes a double-side tape.
7. The electronic device of claim 2 , wherein the first dustproof structure includes a first portion that contacts the hinge housing when the electronic device is in a folded state, and a second portion that does not contact the hinge housing.
8. The electronic device of claim 7 , wherein an area of the second portion is larger than an area of the first portion.
9. The electronic device of claim 7 , wherein a density of fibers disposed on the first portion is higher than a density of fibers disposed on the second portion.
10. The electronic device of claim 1 ,
wherein
the plurality of aggregates comprises fiber bundles,
wherein the at least one fiber structure includes a substrate portion including a plurality of holes, and
wherein the fiber bundles are disposed in the plurality of holes.
11. The electronic device of claim 10 , wherein the plurality of holes are arranged in a zigzag arrangement.
12. The electronic device of claim 1 , further comprising:
a second bent portion provided on a side edge of the second housing and bent with a predetermined curvature.
13. The electronic device of claim 12 , wherein the at least one fiber structure includes a second dustproof structure disposed along a side edge of the second bent portion.
14. The electronic device of claim 13 , further comprising:
an adhesive member at least partially disposed between the second dustproof structure and the second bent portion.
15. The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the at least one fiber structure includes a third dustproof structure provided on a side edge of the hinge housing.
16. The electronic device of claim 15 , wherein the third dustproof structure includes:
a first portion maintaining an upright state when facing at least a portion of structures including the flexible display; and
a second portion pressed by the portion of structures including the flexible display.
17. The electronic device of claim 16 , wherein the third dustproof structure is formed such that a density of the first portion of the third dustproof structure is higher than a density of the second portion of the third dustproof structure.
18. The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the at least one fiber structure further includes a fourth dustproof structure provided on an opposite side edge of the hinge housing.
19. The electronic device of claim 18 , wherein the fourth dustproof structure includes:
a first portion disposed side by side with the flexible display; and
a second portion disposed side by side with the flexible display and including fibers longer than fibers of the first portion of the fourth dustproof structure.
20. The electronic device of claim 19 , wherein the fourth dustproof structure is formed such that a density of the first portion of the fourth dustproof structure is higher than a density of the second portion of the fourth dustproof structure.
