Abstract

A carbonaceous electrode having improved capacities for doping and dedoping of a cell active substance, such as lithium, and suitable for a non-aqueous secondary battery, is constituted by a carbonaceous material obtained by carbonizing an aromatic condensation polymer formed by condensation of an aromatic compound having a phenolic hydroxy group and an aldehyde. The carbonaceous material is characterized by an atomic ratio H/C between hydrogen atoms and carbon atoms of below 0.1, a carbon dioxide adsorption capacity of at least 10 ml/g, and an X-ray scattering intensity ratio IW/ID of at least 0.25, wherein IW and ID represent scattering intensities as measured in a wet state and a dry state, respectively, at a parameter s=2·sin &thgr;/&lgr; of 0.5 nm−1, wherein &thgr; denotes a scattering angle and &lgr; denotes a wavelength of X-rays in X-ray small-angle scattering measurement.
