Abstract
A negative electrode for use in a secondary battery is disclosed, comprising milled carbon fibers derived from mesophase pitch wherein the milled carbon fibers each has a fiber cut surface and a fiber axis intersecting with each other at cross angles, the smaller one thereof being at least 65.degree. on the average. This negative electrode does not suffer from property deterioration, irrespective of multiple repetitions of charge and discharge, from which a nonaqueous-electrolyte-loaded lithic secondary battery having excellent cycle characteristics can be fabricated.
