ABSTRACT:
Solutions of polymers or copolymers containing up to 100% of acrylonitrile units and from 0 to 50 mol percent of units of one or more comonomers copolymerizable with acrylonitrile into nitric acid-soluble polymers is wet spun in a coagulating bath containing a constant surplus of neutralizing agents in an amount ranging from about 0.05 to about 5% by weight which neutralizing agents are sufficient to convert the nitric acid into nitrates and to make the filaments leaving the coagulating bath free of nitric acid. The coagulating bath is maintained at a temperature at least about 5.degree. C above the temperature at which the solution of the same concentration is saturated with respect to its nitrate content. The concentration of the coagulating bath is kept constant during the wet spinning by withdrawing a part of the bath equimolar to the amount of nitric acid introduced therein by the wet spinning, adding a neutralizing agent to the bath at a rate at which the nitric acid is introduced into the bath and replacing the water lost from the bath during the withdrawing of the portion thereof. The filament fibers are concommitantly formed by washing, stretching, heat stabilizing and drying the material as it leaves the bath, together with the formation of nitrates by treating the withdrawn portion of the bath in conventional manner to recover in solid form the nitrates found in the withdrawn bath.
