Inexpensive sulfur-doped porous carbons (SSC-T, T ℃ represented carbonization temperature) were prepared through the hard template method by using inexpensive colloidal silica as a template, sucrose as a carbon source, and sulfuric acid as a precarbonization reagent and sulfur source. The effects of sulfuric acid and carbonization temperature on the microstructure, pore structure, and specific surface area of porous carbons were investigated. It was found that the carbonization temperature had a significant impact on the pore structure, surface area, and sulfur content of carbons. The sample SSC - 900 obtained by carbonization at 900 ℃ has the largest surface area, pore volume, and specific capacitance, which was much higher than the SC-900 prepared without the addition of sulfuric acid, indicating that the addition of sulfuric acid can increase the surface area, pore volume, and the specific capacitance. SSC-900 had the advantages of lower cost, larger pore size, and better capacitive performance than the expensive mesoporous carbon CMK-3. In the three-electrode system with 6.0 mol·L^-1 KOH as electrolyte, the specific capacitance of SSC-900 can reach 357 F·g^-1 at a current density of 0.5 A·g^-1, while the specific capacitance of SC-900 and CMK-3 was only 152 and 266 F·g^-1, respectively. The capacitance contribution analysis showed that the doublelayer capacitance (EDLC) and pseudocapacitance of SSC - 900 were higher than those of SC - 900. In addition, SSC-900 can maintain an initial specific capacitance of 98.4% after 10 000 cycles at a current density of 0.5 A·g^-1.
