In the dry reduction method, acicular magnetic iron oxide or iron oxyhydroxide is reduced in a reducing gas by adding a metal such as Co or Ni to it as necessary.
It leaves needle-like remains. In this case, in practice, in order to prevent sintering and the like during reduction, a method is adopted in which the starting material is coated with silicone oil, a silane coupling agent, water glass, etc. and then reduced. However, it is difficult to uniformly adhere these materials to the entire surface of acicular iron oxide, and the organic components of the adhered materials may remain in the magnetic material, resulting in The resulting acicular metal magnetic fine powder has a drawback in that the magnetic properties are not sufficiently improved.

Example In other words, in the present invention, an organic substance such as polyacrylonitrile was uniformly adhered to the surface of acicular particles such as α-FeOOH (αFe 2 O 3 ) or similarly acicular γ-Fe 2 O 3 as a starting material. After that, it is oxidized at 200 to 400℃ in an oxidizing atmosphere, and then carbonized by heat treatment at 250℃ to 600℃ for about 5 minutes in an inert gas or an inert gas containing a small amount of oxygen O2 . A carbon film is deposited on the surface of the acicular particles. This is then reduced to obtain the desired acicular metal magnetic powder. In this case, CO 2 is mixed into the reducing gas H 2 and carbon C on the particle surface generates CO according to the following reaction formula, CO 2 + C → 2CO ... (1), thereby converting iron oxide into 3CO + Fe 2 It can be reduced by the reaction O 3 →2Fe+3CO 2 ……(2). The CO 2 generated in this manner further causes the reaction of formula (1), and the reactions of formulas (1) and (2) can be repeatedly circulated.

Example 1 Acicular γ-Fe 2 O 3 with a long axis of 0.3 to 0.4 μm and an axial ratio of 8 to 10
A solution of polyacrylonitrile dissolved in the organic solvent methyl ethyl ketone (MEK) is added and mixed, and then MEK is evaporated to uniformly adhere polyacrylonitrile to the surface of the acicular γ-Fe 2 O 3 particles. This is then heat treated in the presence of an appropriate amount of O 2 and then fired at 300° C. or higher in an inert gas (N 2 ).
In this way, acicular iron oxide particles whose surfaces are uniformly coated with carbon atoms are obtained, and after being thoroughly loosened, they are placed in a heating furnace and heated to a predetermined temperature of 300 to 500°C while flowing CO 2 and/or H 2 gas. After time reduction, acicular iron particles are obtained. When taken out into the air, the iron particles were immersed in a methanol solution to prevent them from burning, and the methanol solution was gradually evaporated to form an oxide film on the surface of the needle iron particles.

When the acicular ferromagnetic powder thus obtained was observed with an electron microscope, its length was 0.2 to 0.3 μm, and the acicular ratio was 7 to 8.
Its coercive force Hc is 1250 Oe, and magnetization σ S is 175 emu/g.
It was hot.

As mentioned above, the carbonization treatment is carried out at 250℃ to 600℃ in an inert gas or an inert gas containing a small amount of O2 .
It is preferable to carry out the heat treatment as described above, but
This is because if the temperature is lower than 250°C, the carbonization process takes too much time, and if the temperature exceeds 600°C, there is a possibility of sintering of the acicular particles.

Effects of the Invention The metal magnetic powder for magnetic recording obtained by the manufacturing method of the present invention has a high coercive force Hc and a large saturation magnetization σS , but this is due to the fact that the anti-sintering coating formed on the surface of the metal magnetic powder As carbon atoms are generated, this carbon vaporizes as carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide and scatters and disappears, so that almost no non-magnetic film of carbon remains on the surface of the metal magnetic fine particles. This seems to be due to the following.
