Here in this study, lignin which is a main composition of lignocellulosic biomass also the second abundant aromatic biopolymer, was investigated as a carbon precursor. Our strategy is to convert carbon substances concluding lignin to hierarchically nano-sized porous carbon material with ultrahigh surface area. Hydrothermal carbonization and chemical activation were employed to convert precursor to object porous carbonaceous material which possessed ultrahigh specific surface area over 3000 ㎡ g-1. Based on their ultrahigh specific surface area and hierarchical pore structure, the output provides excellent electron percolation properties. The exceptional ion and electron transport properties of as-obtained carbon material are observed to be an asset for high performance supercapacitor.
