Catalyst-free carbon nanospheres were synthesized using simple one-step pyrolysis techniques where biowaste sago bark is used as a carbon precursor. Obtained carbon nanospheres showed a porous nature and revealed that more than 95 carbon is present in the synthesized carbon nanospheres with particle...
