However, the fabrication of high-performance anode materials remains a critical challenge. Among various options, biomass-derived hard carbon has gained significant research interest due to its environmental friendliness, renewability, and tunable microstructure. Herein, the present research focuses on longan seeds-derived hard carbon (LSHC), specifically studying the correlation between its pyrolysis temperature and the microstructure and electrochemical performance. The data indicate that elevating the thermal treatment temperature led to a higher degree of graphitization (structural order) in HC, accompanied by a decline in surface defects and a growth in closed pore volume. A lower defect density led to the suppression of the solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) film formation, while a greater volume of closed pores was responsible for improving the capacity in the plateau region. Moreover, the correlation between pore structure regulation, ion transport dynamics, and electrochemical properties was systematically studied. Longan seeds-derived HC prepared at 1300 °C exhibits a remarkable reversible specific capacity of 287.4 mAh g<sup>−1</sup>, and demonstrates outstanding cycling stability with 82.1% capacity retention (236 mAh g<sup>−1</sup>) after 500 cycles at 2C. Even at a higher current density, the HC exhibits specific discharge capacity of 208 mAh g<sup>−1</sup> at 4C.
