    Ultra-fast chargeable or rechargeable symmetric carbon-based supercapacitors (SCSs) with high capacity, inexpensive, and non-flammability have attracted much attention for electronics and energy storage devices. However, improving both high redox reaction and ion transport/diffusion processes by enhancing high energy storage performance and rapid ion/electron transport SCSs electrode materials remains challenging. Herein, we presented a successful preparation of activated lignite carbons-reduced graphene oxide (ALC-rGO) nanocomposite (NCp) with the ALC:rGO ratio of 80:20 wt% by a one-pot hydrothermal for high electrochemical performance. Importantly, the matrix of ALC-rGO NCp was primary amorphous carbon with hexagonal graphitic layers and pore structures of plentiful micropores and mesopores. Remarkably, the ALC-rGO NCp electrode exhibited a maximum specific capacitance (C<inf>sc</inf>) of 152.12 F/g at 0.5 A/g. Interestingly, the SCSs-ACL-rGO device could illustrate a good performance at a potential voltage of 1.8 V with C<inf>sc</inf> of 50.90 F/g at 1 A/g and capacity retention of 96.0 % at 5 A/g after 2,000 cycles GCD test.

    Influence of annealing process on microstructure, large specific surface area and enhancing electrochemical properties to synthesize reduced graphene oxide (rGO) for the supercapacitor electrode was investigated. Thermal annealing process of rGO (rGO_An) was improved crystallinity and electrical conductivity. BET analysis of rGO_An sample exhibited the occurrence of large mesoporous and macrospores with a huge specific surface area of 672.1 m<sup>2</sup>/g and an average pore size of 46.2 nm, resulting the rGO_An sample activates more electrodes than rGO sample. Specific capacitance (C<inf>s</inf>) was affected by improving conductivity through annealing process with an excellent cycling stability after 750 cycles for GCD tests of 97.32%, which exhibited the highest value and an average energy density of 412.096 F g<sup>−1</sup> and 74.5 Wh kg<sup>−1</sup>, respectively at 1 A g<sup>−1</sup>. Thus, annealing process can occur with large mesoporous and macrospores pore improving the electrical conductivity and stability to be applied as an electrode in supercapacitor.
