Abstract: This article elucidated the biological effects and functions of far-infrared rays on the human body and reviewed the mechanism of conduction of nanocarbon materials as well as the emission mechanism of far-infrared rays by this type of material. This article also raised several technical key questions of how to further develop electrically generated far infrared ray fibers and products, and briefly introduced several electrically generated far infrared ray therapeutic textile products powered by portable batteries.

Key words: nanocarbon composite fibers; electrically generated far infrared ray; physiotherapy products
