Abstract
The invention relates a heat-treated poly(metaphenylene isophthalamide) polymer fiber having a crystalline structure as represented by a carbonyl stretch peak at a wavelength of 1,650 cm−1 in a Raman spectra response which before coloration with a dye, shrinks linearly 0.4 percent or less when exposed to 285 degrees Centigrade for 30 minutes; and which after contact with an aqueous red dye solution for 1 hour at 120 degrees Centigrade, has an “L” value coloration of at least 40 units lower than the “L” value of the fiber before coloration.
