In recent years, as improvement of human living life, people begin to focus on themselves health. It is certain that bamboo charcoal has many properties, including water purification, deodorization, anion release and far-infrared ray radiation. This study aims to prepare PET/BC warp-knitted fabric composed of polyester yarn (PET) as warp yarn and bamboo charcoal polyamine yarn (BC) as weft yarn using Velcro Crochet Machine. Afterwards, air permeability, elastic resilience and far-infrared ray emissivity of resulting knitted fabric were discussed by changing weft yarn type. Result shows that, for knitted fabrics, weft yarn type cannot affect the elastic resilience; yet PET weft yarn makes air permeability decreasing.
