られていた。[Prior Art] For example, a coated magnetic recording medium has a base made of polyethylene terephthalate film, etc.
It is composed of magnetic powder formed on the base surface and a magnetic layer mainly composed of binder resin. Conventional magnetic powders used in the construction of such magnetic recording media include γ-Fe2O3, Co-coated γ-Fe2O
3. A magnetic recording method was adopted that utilized acicular magnetic powder such as CrO2 or metal Fe and utilized magnetization in the longitudinal direction in the plane.

の向上を図ろうとすると、記録媒体内の減磁界が増加す
るため、記録密度をそれほど向上差せることができない
という問題がある。However, in a magnetic recording medium that utilizes magnetization in the in-plane longitudinal direction, when trying to improve recording and reproduction in a high frequency range, the demagnetizing field within the recording medium increases, so the recording density cannot be improved much. The problem is that it cannot be done.

垂直磁気記録方式が提案されている。つまり、この垂直
磁気記録方式の場合は、高周波域においても記録媒体内
の減磁界の問題が生じないので、高密度記録に適するか
らである。In order to significantly improve the magnetic recording density, a perpendicular magnetic recording system has been proposed that utilizes magnetization in a direction perpendicular to the base of a magnetic recording medium. In other words, this perpendicular magnetic recording method is suitable for high-density recording because it does not cause the problem of demagnetizing fields within the recording medium even in a high frequency range.

安定性、走行耐久性、生産性などの点で問題がある。As a recording medium suitable for the above-mentioned perpendicular magnetic recording system, one in which a Co--Cr alloy or the like is deposited and formed on a substrate surface by a vacuum evaporation method or a sputtering method is known. However, this type of magnetic recording medium has problems in terms of environmental stability, running durability, productivity, etc.

Hexagonal ferrite, for example M

It is known to contain O27 (Me is a substitution metal element), M-type ferrite and spinel ferrite at the same time, or to use hexagonal ferrite in which some of these atoms are replaced with other elements. That is, it is known that a magnetic paint is prepared by mixing the hexagonal ferrite powder with a binder resin, a solvent, and various additives, and this magnetic paint is applied onto a nonmagnetic substrate.

The basic components of hexagonal ferrite, substituent components for reducing coercive force, additive components for improving properties such as improving saturation magnetization, and glass forming components are mixed and melted by heating, and the molten material is rapidly cooled to form a non-woven material. After crystallization (vitrification) and heat treatment of the resulting amorphous body to precipitate hexagonal ferrite crystal particles, this is crushed and the resulting fine powder is treated with phosphoric acid, acetic acid, etc. A glass crystallization method is used in which hexagonal ferrite is separated and extracted by cleaning with dilute acid to dissolve and remove glass-forming components.

A compound that can become B2O3 and a compound that can become B2O3 are used. Therefore, when melting these raw material mixture components, it is necessary to increase the melting temperature.
There is a problem that production costs are high.

Become. Furthermore, if the ratio of the glass-forming component and the glass-modifying component is out of the above range, the grain size may become too large or phases other than hexagonal ferrite are likely to be formed. Furthermore, the sum of the amounts of the basic component of the hexagonal ferrite and the substituted component for coercive force control is 30 to 60 mol%.
A range of is preferred. In other words, if it is less than 30 mol%, the particle size tends to become too large;
Exceeding mol% not only increases the melting temperature, but also
This is because it tends to be difficult to extract hexagonal ferrite after heat treatment.

きる。[Function] In the method for producing hexagonal ferrite for magnetic recording according to the present invention, the hexagonal ferrite-forming component and the glass-forming component are melted by heating and then rapidly cooled to become amorphous. By using a compound that can become B2O3 and/or SiO2 and a compound that can become R2O in a predetermined composition ratio as a forming component/glass modification component, a melt with good uniformity can be obtained at a relatively low melting temperature. In addition, it is possible to easily obtain hexagonal ferrite with fine particle size, narrow particle size distribution, and large plate-like ratio, and which is suitable for magnetic recording with good reproducibility.

The shape of the precipitated hexagonal ferrite is 400 mm on a transmission electron micrograph.
The calculation was made by measuring each particle. Furthermore, it was examined by X-ray diffraction whether the obtained powder was a hexagonal ferrite single phase.
