Abstract
A method of manufacturing a negative material and a secondary battery in which a belt-shaped positive electrode and a belt-shaped negative electrode are wound together with a separator in between them to form a wound electrode body. The wound electrode battery is then inserted inside a battery can. Preferably, the negative electrode is produced with crushed silicon or a silicon compound in an oxygen partial pressure atmosphere within a value from higher than 10 Pa to lower than an oxygen partial pressure of air.
