Abstract

A process is described for the continuous processing of fibers produced in the wet spinning process, particularly for the continuous dyeing and/or optical brightening of polyacrylonitrile tow in the hydrated condition, wherein, for the obtainment of a level processing effect, the wet tow is spread out, preferably by using spreaders such as curved rods or curved rolls, before being impregnated with the processing liquor, to form a ribbon having a maximum thickness of 2 mm. By this process there is obtained over the whole cross-section, evenly processed polyacrylonitrile tow.
