ACRYLIC AND MODACRYLIC FIBERS
Acrylic fibers are a major synthetic fiber class developed about the same time as polyesters. Modacrylic fibers are copolymers containing between 35–85% acrylonitrile. Acrylic fibers contain at least 85% acrylonitrile.
Orlon is an acrylic fiber developed by DuPont in 1949; Dynel is a modacrylic fiber developed by Union Carbide in 1951. Polyacrylics are produced by copolymerizing acrylonitrile with other monomers such as vinyl acetate, vinyl chloride, and acrylamide. Solution polymerization may be used where water is the solvent in the presence of a redox catalyst. Free radical or anionic initiators may also be used. The produced polymer is insoluble in water and precipitates. Precipitation polymerization, whether self nucleation or aggregate nucleation, has been reviewed by Juba. The following equation is for an acrylonitrile polymer initiated by a free radical:
Copolymers of acrylonitrile are sensitive to heat, and melt spinning is not used. Solution spinning (wet or dry) is the preferred process where a polar solvent such as dimethyl formamide is used. In dry spinning the solvent is evaporated and recovered.
Dynel, a modacrylic fiber, is produced by copolymerizing vinyl chloride with acrylonitrile. Solution spinning is also used where the polymer is dissolved in a solvent such as acetone. After the solvent is evaporated, the fibers are washed and subjected to stretching, which extends the fiber 4–10 times of the original length.
