Acrylic Fiber resembles to wool in its character but has advantages over wool such as good drying capacity, high moisture management, resistance to moths and chemical substances, and good resiliency among other properties. Acrylic Fiber is produced by two different methods i.e. wet and dry spinning method. The most comonomers employed in manufacturing are methyl acrylate and vinyl acetate along with some percent of ionogenic comonomers such as sodium itaconate. These comonomers helps to improve the dye ability, fiber flexibility and textile process ability in acrylic fiber.
