Abstract
The present invention provides a non-aqueous electrolyte secondary cell including: a lithium-nickel composite oxide as a cathode active material and a material having a specific surface in the range from 0.05 m /g to 2 m /g as an anode active material. When A is assumed to be the weight of the lithium-nickel composite oxide and B is assumed to be the weight of the cathode active material other than the lithium-nickel composite oxide, the mixture ratio R expressed A/(A+B) is in the range from 0.2 to 1. This combination of the cathode active material and the anode active material enables to obtain an improved anti-over discharge characteristic even when an anode current collector contains Cu.
