electromagnetic radiation whose wavelength is longer than visible light, but
shorter than terahertz and microwave radiation. Far infrared radiation (FIR)
denotes radiation that is considered a kind of infrared radiation and includes
wavelengths between 5.6-1000 micron. </span> <span style="font-size:14px;">These rays are emitted by sun rays,
human body, metals and some minerals. </span> <span lang="en-au" style="font-family:’Times New Roman’, serif;font-size:14px;" xml:lang="en-au"> The positive effect of these rays on human
health has already been mentioned and they are widely used especially in Far
East countries in textile products and saunas.  </span> <span lang="en-au" xml:lang="en-au" style="font-size:14px;line-height:115%;font-family:’Times New Roman’, serif;">For
the textile products to emit such rays, the fibres or fabrics are required to
gain some features. For this purpose, bioseramic powder is applied to the
fibres and hence the textile becomes able to emit far infrared rays. This study
deals with yarns that have acquired the ability to emit far infrared rays and
their usage areas in textile. </span> <span lang="en-au" xml:lang="en-au" style="font-size:14px;line-height:115%;font-family:’Times New Roman’, serif;"> </span> <span style="font-size:14px;line-height:115%;font-family:Calibri, sans-serif;">This review examines
bioceramic powders, black body, production of FIR emitting yarns, features of
yarns, various usage areas and future trends by means of literature review
method. </span> </p> <p> </p>}, number={3}, publisher={İskender AKKURT}
