The invention is suitable for the technical field of chemical power sources, and provides a preparation method of a porous ferroferric
oxide symmetric
capacitor, which comprises the following steps: putting an
iron source salt solution, a pore-forming additive and a carbon material substrate subjected to surface treatment into a reaction kettle, putting the reaction kettle into a
drying oven, carrying out
hydrothermal reaction, and after the
hydrothermal reaction is finished, obtaining a porous ferroferric
oxide symmetric
capacitor; the porous iron
trioxide carbon material is obtained; performing electrochemical conversion on the porous
ferric oxide-carbon material by adopting a
cyclic voltammetry method to obtain a flexible porous ferroferric oxide-carbon material; and taking the porous ferroferric oxide and carbon material as a positive
electrode material and a negative
electrode material respectively, taking two
electrode clamps to clamp the positive
electrode material and the negative
electrode material respectively, placing the positive
electrode material and the negative electrode material in an electrolytic tank containing a neutral
salt solution, and assembling to obtain a
supercapacitor monomer. The invention also provides a symmetric
capacitor of porous ferroferric oxide and an application thereof. The capacitor has the advantages of high specific
capacitance,
high energy density, good
cycling stability, long service life and the like.
