Herein, we employed (CH₃COO)₂Zn as template to prepare B, N co - doped porous carbons (BN - PC) by using phenanthroline as precursor and N source, K₂B₄O₇ as B source. The effect of template mass on the structure and electric storage properties of BN-PC₅ was investigated. When the mass of (CH₃COO)₂Zn was 5 g, the B and N heteroatom content of BN - PC ₅ was 20.21% and 18.29%, respectively. As the electrode materials for supercapaci-tors, BN-PC₅ exhibited a high specific capacitance of 255 F·g^-1 at 0.05 A·g^-1, an excellent rate performance of 188 A·g^-1 at 20 A·g^-1 and outstanding cycle stability with 97% of initial capacitance retention after 10 000 cycles in 6 mol·L^-1 KOH aqueous electrolyte. The energy density of BN-PC₅ capacitor reached 27 Wh·kg^-1 at an average power density of 56 W·kg^-1 in 3 mol·L^-1 ZnSO₄ aqueous electrolyte.
