Abstract

Disclosed are an anode material for a secondary battery and a secondary battery using the same. The present invention provides the anode material for a secondary battery, produced by coating a high-crystallinity core carbonaceous material with a coating carbonaceous material and calcining the high-crystallinity core carbonaceous material, wherein the anode material for a secondary battery has a delamination area of 0.1×10 −5 to 1.0×10 −4 or a volume fraction of water uptake of 0.01 or less. The secondary battery according to the present invention may be useful to improve a charging/discharging capacity and a charging/discharging efficiency of the battery and ensure a stability of the battery since the battery has an improved protection against a degradation reaction of an electrolyte if the battery is produced using the anode material for a secondary battery.
