The invention discloses a blocky 
graphite negative 
electrode material for a 
lithium ion battery, a preparation method of the blocky 
graphite negative 
electrode material and the 
lithium ion battery. The negative 
electrode material comprises a blocky 
graphite matrix, wherein the surface of the blocky graphite matrix is coated with a graphite 
coating layer. According to the blocky graphite negative 
electrode material for the 
lithium ion battery, a great number of micro-holes are formed in the surface of the blocky graphite matrix, and the graphite 
coating layer is highly combined with the coated blocky graphite matrix, so that the blocky graphite negative 
electrode material has the advantages of high intermolecular 
binding force, high tap density, high reversible specific capacity and good rate performance, a negative electrode sheet prepared by using the blocky graphite negative 
electrode material is slightly bounced and expanded, and the prepared 
lithium ion battery has excellent electrochemical performance. According to the blocky graphite negative electrode material, the purpose of blocky graphite is expanded, the additional value of a 
natural graphite product is increased, and the development space of a negative electrode material source of the 
lithium ion battery is enlarged; the negative electrode material can be used as the negative electrode material of an aluminum shell 
lithium ion battery, a flexibly 
package lithium ion battery, a cylindrical lithium ion battery and other lithium ion batteries; the blocky graphite negative electrode material has a wide application prospect.
