The effect of a range of dyebath additives on the thermal behaviour, swellability and second‐order glass transition temperature of an acrylic fibre (Leacril) has been studied in an attempt to correlate fibre properties with dyebath conditions. Glass‐transition temperature was determined using filament length extension, differential scanning calorimetry and dye uptake techniques.
