A novel way to prepare mesoporous activated carbon fibers (ACFs-P) has been developed, while the ACFs-P with high surface area were obtained from liquefied wood by combining polyvinyl butyral (PVB) blending and steam activation. The porosity properties of the new material was investigated by N 2  adsorption and the Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET) surface area was found to be 2710 m 2  g −1  and a pore volume of 1.540 cm 3  g −1 , of which 58.2% was mesoporous with diameters between 3 and 6 nm. ACFs-P had a higher methylene blue (MB) adsorption capacity (962 mg/g) than the PVB-added carbon fibers (CFs-P) and ACFs-P without PVB (ACFs-C). Flexible all-carbon yarn supercapacitors can be produced from ACFs-P as powder or fiber. The fiber approach led to yarn supercapacitors with a less favorable electrochemical performance than the powder based production owing to the poor strength of the fibers. A 10 cm long yarn supercapacitor from the powdered ACFs exhibited a high specific length capacitance of 43 mF cm −1  at 2 mV s −1 . Yarn supercapacitors showed an excellent mechanical flexibility and its capacitor properties were not diminished after bending or crumpling.
