Reflux process with nitric acid was conducted to purify the resultant of carbon material. The resultant of carbon-based nanostructure were characterized systematically. X-ray diffraction spectra shows the presence of C peaks at 2θ of 26.53°, 42.26°, 44.49°, 54.63° and 77.35° and Fe peaks at 2θ of 44.1° and 64.25°. Scanning electron microscope and transmission electron microscope observation revealed that the resultant of graphitic carbon nanostructures displayed the tube-like structure. Raman spectroscopy results show the presence of D-band and G-band peaks, which confirmed the typical spectrum of carbon-based structures. The D-band peak around 1310-1330 cm-1 was assigned to the presence of disorder in graphitic materials whereas the G-band peak around 1580-1590 cm-1 was corresponded to the tangential vibrational of the carbon atoms. These condition is a typical spectrum of carbon nanotube-like structures. Eventually, these pyrolysis method could be anticipated as a promising strategy in order to develop the novel carbon nanostructures based on cellulosic material.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Author keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]Carbon material,Carbon Nanostructures,Carbon-based nanostructures,Carbon-based structures,Cellulosic material,Graphitic carbon nanostructures,Graphitic materials,X-ray diffraction spectrum[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Indexed keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Funding details” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”DOI” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]https://doi.org/10.1088/1755-1315/60/1/012017[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/4″][vc_column_text]Widget Plumx[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][/vc_column][/vc_row]
