Carbon nano-needles were successfully prepared using an in-situ carbonization method, employing the pores formed by the mixed crystallization of cesium chloride and sodium bromide as templates. The needle-like structures, resembling embroidery needles, were synthesized using three different surfactants as carbon sources: DTAB, SDBS and Tween-80. The resulting carbon nano-needles exhibited lengths ranging from 400-700 nm, 500-1000 nm and 2-4 μm, respectively. A series of characterizations, including SEM, FT-IR, XPS, XRD and Raman spectroscopy, confirmed that the prepared materials possess the fundamental characteristics of carbon nanomaterials. The successful synthesis of carbon nano-needles further demonstrates the feasibility of morphology modulation in carbon nanomaterials within a concentrated salt system, offering new methodologies and insights for the morphological control of carbon nanomaterials.
