AbstractA method of obtaining thermochrome cellulose fibers has been developed. The basis technology used to form fibers was the Lyocell process. This method is based on spinning fibers from concentrated solvents of cellulose, using dry‐wet method in aqueous solidification bath. The cellulose solvent used in this process was N‐oxide‐N‐methylomorpholine (NMMO). The studies were to check on the features of the fibers obtained from solvents with thermochrome pigmentation, in order to evaluate their practical use. Thermochrome modifier used in the experiment was Chromicolor®AQ‐INK, Magenta type#27 pigmentation. This modifier was introduced into the spinning solutions in such amounts that fibers obtained from them would contain 1–10 wt% of pigmentation. Fibers formed out of modified solvents underwent spectral values, thermal, physicomechanical analyses, also their sorption features were evaluated. Copyright © 2007 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
