Abstract

An improved process for the thermal stabilization of an acrylic fibrous material or film is provided. The fibrous material or film initially is contacted with aniline provided at an elevated temperature. Such aniline treatment (as described) has been found to render the fibrous material or film capable of undergoing thermal stabilization on a more expeditious basis. Subsequently the resulting fibrous material or film is heated in an oxygen-containing atmosphere at a temperature of approximately 200.degree. to 360.degree. C. until a stabilized fibrous material or film is formed.
