Lignin is the most abundant aromatic biomass resource in nature and is the main by-product of paper industry and biorefinery industry, which has the characteristics of abundant source, renewable and low cost. Deep eutectic solvents (DES) are a nascent environmentally friendly solvent option that is gaining traction. DES composed of p-toluenesulfonic acid and choline chloride is used for batch treatment of alkaline lignin, and the bio-oil obtained is ternary polymerized with formaldehyde and phenol to obtain lignin phenolic resin. The porous carbon material is produced through a two-step carbonization process, utilizing phenolic resin derived from lignin as the primary source of carbon. The morphology and composition of the carbon were analyzed by SEM, TEM, XRD, TGA, XPS and Raman spectroscopy, the specific surface area and pore size distribution were analyzed by BET. The results showed that the specific surface area of the lignin-based phenolic resin was significantly higher than that of the pure phenolic resin carbon, and the porous carbon material that was acquired demonstrated a specific surface area of as much as 1026 m2/g. In the three-electrode system, the specific capacitance of DLPFC can reach 245.8 F/g (0.25 A/g), with a very small decrease in the value of specific capacitance at 10,000 cycles, with a retention of 97.62% (10 A/g). The porous carbon demonstrated a specific capacitance of 112.4 F/g at a current density of 0.5 A/g, and the capacitance retention rate could still reach 98.8% after 5000 charge/discharge cycles, with high cycling stability (in the two-electrode system). The prepared symmetrical supercapacitors exhibited high energy density and power density of 3.9 Wh/kg and 125.0 W/kg. The results suggest a new idea of high value-added application of lignin phenolic resin for high-performance supercapacitor electrodes.
