The invention relates to a method for the production of thermally stabilised melt spun fibres, in which polyacrylonitrile (PAN) fibres or PAN fibre precursors produced by melt spinning are treated in an aqueous alkaline solution which comprises in addition a solvent for PAN. Likewise, the invention relates to fibres which are producible according to this method.
