This study focuses on the optimization of parameters involved in the process of dyeing such as temperature, concentration of dye, and swelling agent for m‐aramid fibers with disperse dyes and these parameters were used to investigate the shade depth and fastness properties of m‐aramid fibers. Experiments were carried out in batch system to study the effect of factors and their levels mainly on shade depth of the fibers. The shade depth, that is, K/S value of m‐aramid fibers was improved proportionally with the increasing concentration of swelling agent and dye concentration.
