▎ 摘　　要

A simple, fast, and scalable mix-and-heat process was developed for production of three-dimensional (3D) porous graphene nanostructure. The process involves only mixing and heating of starch and a graphene oxide (GO) suspension at 90 degrees C for 10 min to form 3D graphene monoliths, from which a three-dimensionally well-connected porous graphene nanostructure, starch/RGO, possessing a high specific surface area of 1519 m(2) g(-1) was obtained. The starch/RGO material was used as the electrode material to fabricate flexible, gel-type symmetric supercapacitors of outstanding capacitive performances, delivering a high energy density of 19.8 Wh kg(-1) at the power density of 0.5 kW kg(-1) and exhibiting an excellent high rate capability of a high power density of 9.9 kW kg(-1) at the energy density of 9.6 Wh kg(-1), among the highest for pristine carbon material based gel-type, symmetric supercapacitors. The cycling stability of the starch/RGO based supercapacitor was excellent, with a high specific capacitance retention rate of 80% after 8000 cycles at 10 A g(-1). The starch/RGO based supercapacitor exhibited outstanding mechanical stability with a retention rate of 90% in both energy and power densities at a large bending angle of 138 and functioned well in a wide temperature range environment.
