2. Description of the Related Art In recent years, electronic devices have been remarkably reduced in size and weight, and accordingly, there has been a great demand for reduction in size and weight of batteries as power sources. In the field of primary batteries, small and lightweight batteries such as lithium batteries have already been put into practical use, but since they are primary batteries, they cannot be repeatedly used, and their fields of use have been limited. On the other hand, lead batteries and nickel-cadmium batteries have been conventionally used in the field of secondary batteries, but both have a serious problem in that they are smaller and lighter. From this viewpoint, non-aqueous secondary batteries have received a great deal of attention, but they have not yet been put to practical use. One of the reasons is that no negative electrode active material used for the secondary battery has been found to satisfy practical physical properties such as cycle property and self-discharge property.

Such a new electrode active material does not cause a complicated chemical reaction in the electrochemical reaction during charging and discharging, and thus is expected to have an extremely excellent charge / discharge cycle property.

As an example of an electrode active material utilizing the doping phenomenon, for example, a new type secondary battery using a conductive polymer as an electrode material is described in, for example, JP-A-56-136469. However, the secondary battery using such a conductive polymer has not yet been put to practical use because problems such as instability, that is, low cycleability and large self-discharge have not been solved.

Further, JP-A-58-35881 and JP-A-59
In Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 173979/1984, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 59-207568, it is proposed to use a high surface area carbon material such as activated carbon as an electrode material. Such an electrode material has been found to have a peculiar phenomenon which is considered to be due to the formation of an electric double layer based on its high surface area, which is different from the doping phenomenon, and is said to exhibit excellent performance particularly when used for a positive electrode. Although it is described that it is also used for a negative electrode in some cases, when such a high surface area carbon material is used as a negative electrode, it has great defects in cycle characteristics and self-discharge characteristics. That is, electrons that can reversibly enter and exit per carbon atom,
The ratio of (or counter cation) is extremely low, 0.05 or less, usually 0.01 to 0.02, which means that when used as a negative electrode of a secondary battery, both weight and volume become extremely large. However, it has a major drawback in practical application.

On the other hand, it is naturally conceivable to use a graphite intercalation compound incorporating cations such as Li + ions as a negative electrode, and in fact, for example, in JP-A-59-143280, a graphite intercalation compound incorporating cations is used as a negative electrode.

That is, it has been found that a small and lightweight secondary battery having excellent stability as a battery such as cycle life and self-discharge characteristics and high utilization efficiency can be provided. However, the current efficiency in initial charge and initial discharge is low, and in the battery combined with the positive electrode, the amount of the positive electrode commensurate with the current efficiency on the negative electrode side at the first time, that is, the excess amount of the positive electrode is required, which is small and lightweight. There was a big defect in practical application of such a battery.

Further, when the specific surface area is 100 m 2 / g or more, the characteristics are deteriorated in terms of cycle life characteristics, self-discharge characteristics, and current efficiency characteristics, which is not preferable. It is presumed that such a phenomenon causes a variety of side reactions on the electrode surface because the surface area is too large and adversely affects the battery performance.

The carbonaceous material 1 satisfying the conditions of the present invention
For example, it can be obtained by thermal decomposition of various organic compounds or carbonization by firing. In this case, the heat history temperature condition is important, and as described above, when the heat history temperature is too low, the carbonization is not sufficient, the electric conductivity is small, and the carbonaceous material is not the condition of the present invention. .. The lower limit of temperature is slightly different depending on the object, but is usually 600 ° C or higher, preferably 8 ° C.
It is at least 00 ° C. What is more important is the upper limit of the thermal history temperature, and heat treatment at temperatures close to 3,000 ° C., which is performed in ordinary graphite, graphite and carbon fiber production, causes crystal growth too much and functions as a secondary battery. Is significantly impaired. 2,400 ° C or lower, preferably 1,800 ° C or lower, and more preferably 1,400 ° C or lower is a preferable range. Under such heat treatment conditions, the heating rate, the cooling rate, the heat treatment time, etc. can be arbitrarily selected according to the purpose. In addition, a method of raising the temperature to a predetermined temperature after heat treatment in a relatively low temperature region is also adopted.

EXAMPLES The present invention will be described in more detail with reference to Examples and Comparative Examples. The surface area was measured by a nitrogen adsorption method using a BET surface area measuring device P-700 type manufactured by Shibata Scientific Instruments Co., Ltd. In addition, X-ray diffraction was performed according to the "Japan Society for the Promotion of Science". The true density was measured by a float-sink method at 25 ° C. using a powder of carbonaceous material as a sample and a mixed solution of bromoform and carbon tetrachloride. Regarding the sample having the distribution of true density, the value at which about 50% of the whole powder particles settled was used as the measured value. The average particle size is measured by a dry fluid dispersion unit R manufactured by SYMPATEC.
ODOS and laser diffraction type particle size distribution measurement optical system HEROS-BASIS / KA (0.5 to 175 μ range) are used, and air pressure is 5.0 bar and blowing pressure is 100 m.
The measurement was carried out by dry dispersion under the conditions of bar and cascade.
