Inventors include Nishihara Hirotomo; Yamaguchi Togo; Kaku Rikuto; Takase Atsushi; Omaru Atsuo; and Kiuchi Takashi.

The application for the patent was published on October 23, 2026, under issue no. 43/2026.

Abstract: Provided is a carbon material that exhibits excellent conductivity and exhibits excellent charge/discharge characteristics, battery capacitance characteristics, and rapid discharge characteristics when an electrochemical element electrode is produced therefrom. A carbon material according to the present invention is formed from a carbonaceous outer shell having a graphene structure, and has pores. In the carbon material, the BET specific surface area is in a range of 100-2500 m2/g. The total pore volume measured by nitrogen adsorption/desorption measurement is at least 0.30 cc/g. With respect to the total pore volume, the volume percentage of pores each having a pore diameter of 10 nm or more is at least 30% and the volume percentage of macropores which are pores each having a pore diameter of more than 50 nm is at least 5%. The mode pore diameter is in a meso pore region, which is 2-50 nm.
