Abstract

Nano size spherical carbon particles of less than 100 nm diameters are attracting for new applications in human life and industry fields. In this work, different nano carbon particles structures including spherical shape were synthesized by phosphoric acid dehydration process. Shape and size of the obtained nano sized carbon sphere particles were characterized by means of JEOL-JEM-1200 Transmission Electron Microscope (TEM). The effect of different phosphoric acid concentrations, 0.06M, 0.1M and 0.5M respectively was studied. Also, influence of sugar concentration, temperature and heating time were investigated. The optimum conditions were concluded as, 0.1M phosphoric acid, 50g/l sugar concentration, 100oC and 15minutes heating time was selected for carbon nano spheres preparation.
