Abstract
A negative active material for a rechargeable lithium battery includes natural graphite including secondary particles in which a plurality of primary particles are assembled; amorphous carbon on the surface of the primary particles; and a coating layer including amorphous carbon surrounding the secondary particles, wherein the primary particles have an average particle diameter of about 5 μm to about 15 μm, the secondary particles have an average particle diameter of about 8 μm to about 24 μm, and a peak intensity ratio I(002)/I(110) is less than or equal to about 120 as measured by X-ray diffraction.
