## Abstract Brittle failure of bone cement remains a problem for the long‐term stability of hip prostheses. Fibers have been developed from poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) that retain the chemistry of bone cement, but improve the mechanical properties greatly. To fabricate the fibers, a polymer me

✦ Synopsis
Acrylic fibers are among the most useful synthetic fibers for textile applications, and special acrylic fiber (SAF) has industrial applications. The physical and mechanical properties of fiber are affected by several parameters; one such parameter is coagulation conditions: bath temperature, bath composition, and drawing. Acrylonitrilecarboxylic acid copolymers, that is, acrylic methacrylic and itaconic acid, were converted into fibers using the dry-jet wet spinning technique. The coagulation bath temperature was varied from 5°C to 35°C, and the properties of the fibers so obtained were investigated. The effect of the final drawing ratios (6.5 and 8.5) on such physical and mechanical properties as tenacity, sonic modulus, initial modulus, density, crystallinity index, and X-ray orientation were also investigated. In addition, thermogravimetric analysis and scanning electron microscopy were used to determine the thermomechanical properties and fracture morphology of the fibers.
