Candle wax has been used as a precursor for the production of carbon nanomaterial without a catalyst precursor. Nanomaterials formed in the process were analysed by Raman spectroscopy, scanning electron microscope (SEM), energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), high resolution transmission electron microscope (HR-TEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). Carbon nanomaterial produced from candle wax flame soot show the morphology of carbon nanospheres. The results obtained are presented.
