Embodiment 1

[0223] The silicon material was pulverized and classified to prepare silicon particles having an average particle diameter (D50) of 20 μm. Separately, ethanol was added to Varnish A and the resulting mixture was stirred, thereby completely dissolving Varnish A in the ethanol. The resulting solution was added to the above-prepared silicon particles (100 g) so that the amount of the modified phenol resin solids became 10% by mass based on all the silicon particles, and the resulting mixture was kneaded by a planetary mixer for 30 minute. Vapor-grown carbon fibers graphitized at 2,800° C. (the average diameter of the filaments of the carbon fibers is 150 nm, and the average aspect ratio of the filaments is 100) (0.1% by mass) were added to the obtained mixture, and stirred The resulting mixture. The resulting mixture was dried in a vacuum drying apparatus at 80° C. for 2 hours, thereby removing the ethanol. Subsequently, the mixture thus dried was placed in a heating furnace, ...

Embodiment 2

[0225] The process of Example 1 was repeated, except that the added amount of the vapor-grown carbon fiber was changed to 3% by mass, so as to obtain a negative electrode material sample. In the same manner as the sample of Example 1, battery evaluation was performed on the sample obtained above by means of a single-cell battery evaluation device. The battery evaluation was performed using the EC electrolytic solution. In the charge / discharge cycle test, the capacity at the 1st cycle and the capacity at the 50th cycle were measured. The results are shown in Table 1.

Embodiment 3

[0227] The process of Example 1 was repeated, except that the added amount of the vapor-phase grown carbon fiber was changed to 10% by mass, so as to obtain a negative electrode material sample. In the same manner as the sample of Example 1, battery evaluation was performed on the sample obtained above by means of a single-cell battery evaluation device. The battery evaluation was performed using the EC electrolytic solution. In the charge / discharge cycle test, the capacity at the 1st cycle and the capacity at the 50th cycle were measured.
