Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain a magnetic recording medium excellent in strength of coating films, electromagnetic conversion characteristics, and durability which causes little wear of a magnetic head by preparing an abrasive dispersion liquid using a specified binder independently of a ferromagnetic powder in the production process of a magnetic coating material. CONSTITUTION:This magnetic recording medium has a magnetic layer essentially comprising a ferromagnetic powder, binder, and abrasive on a nonmagnetic supporting body. In this production process, two kinds of abrasive dispersion liquids are prepared independently of a ferromagnetic powder dispersion liquid. In the one abrasive dispersion liquid, a binder having good compatibility with the binder in the ferromagnetic powder dispersion liquid is used. In the other abrasive dispersion liquid, a binder having bad compatibility with the binder in the ferromagnetic powder dispersion liquid is used. These dispersion liquids are mixed with the ferromagnetic powder dispersion liquid and used to form the magnetic layer. Thereby, the abrasive in a bad state of compatibility is separated from the main binder and exists near the surface of the magnetic layer to maintain the abrasion property of the medium. On the other hand, the abrasive in a good state of compatibility exists in the magnetic layer to improve the strength. The compatibility of a binder is evaluated by measuring the absorbance of a 100mum-thick resin film comprising a mixture of the objective binder and the binder used in the ferromagnetic powder dispersion liquid in 1:1 mixing ratio. When the absorbance for 850nm wavelength is <=0.4, the solubility of the objective binder is regarded good, and when it is >=0.5, the solubility is regarded bad.

2. Description of the Related Art In recent years, in the field of magnetic recording, the recording wavelength has become shorter and shorter due to the progress of higher image quality of video equipment and the change of recording system from analog recording to digital recording. For this reason, the ferromagnetic powders used for these are also becoming finer particles with the aim of improving the electromagnetic conversion characteristics. However, as the ferromagnetic powders become finer particles, the durability of the magnetic layer of the magnetic recording medium (still life, magnetic head (Powder adhesion, powder drop on the magnetic layer, etc.) worsens. Therefore, in order to improve the durability of the magnetic layer, the binder resin, the lubricant, the abrasive and the like are being actively improved.

With the recent trend toward higher density recording of magnetic recording media, the finer particles of the ferromagnetic powder used in the magnetic recording media have been further developed, as described above, and further, between the head and the magnetic recording medium. The relative speed of the tends to increase. The influence of the abrasive on the deterioration of the durability of the magnetic recording medium due to this is great, and various studies have been conducted on the type, particle diameter, addition amount and the like.

Here, if the amount of the abrasive added is increased, the strength of the magnetic coating film is increased and the durability such as the still life and powder falling is improved, but on the contrary, the wear amount of the magnetic head is increased. The wear of the magnetic head increases as the hardness, particle size, and amount of the abrasive increase.

On the other hand, it is necessary to reduce the roughness of the surface of the magnetic layer in order to reduce the gap loss at the time of short wavelength recording and improve the electromagnetic conversion characteristics as the recording density becomes higher. There is an upper limit to the amount of the agent and its addition amount. Further, these abrasive particles are relatively large with respect to the ferromagnetic powder, and hinder the orientation of the ferromagnetic powder, and deteriorate the magnetic properties such as squareness ratio and saturation magnetic flux density.

Furthermore, in recent years, the proportion of alloy heads (amorphous heads, etc.) used to cope with the use of metal tapes has increased, and when these alloy heads and metal tapes are used in combination, metal-metal Friction causes seizure on the alloy head, which deteriorates electromagnetic conversion characteristics.

As is clear from (Table 1), an abrasive dispersion containing a binder resin having a good compatibility, which is a feature of the present invention, and an abrasive dispersion containing a binder resin having a poor compatibility. The test samples of (Example 1) and (Example 2) prepared by mixing are excellent in electromagnetic conversion characteristics (C / N), still life, less decrease in output due to seizure, and moderate head wear. However, a remarkable effect can be seen as compared with (Comparative Example 1), (Comparative Example 2) and (Comparative Example 3) using the single abrasive dispersion. Further, as shown in (Example 3) and (Example 4), even if the abrasive particles are changed from α-Al 2 O 3 to rutile type TiO 2 , the effect characteristic of the present invention is not changed. Therefore, the same effect can be obtained even if another abrasive having a Mohs hardness of 6 or more is used. Similar effects are also confirmed in the case where the ferromagnetic alloy powder is used as the ferromagnetic powder (Example 5) and (Example 6).
