Abstract

PURPOSE:To enhance the stability for contact travelling by a method wherein a oxide substrate is formed using the oxide composite sintered body, consisting of NiO of 50-90wt% and TiO2 for the remainder, as the main ingredient. CONSTITUTION:An oxide substrate is formed with the oxide composite sintered body, consisting of NiO of 50-90wt% and the TiO2 for the remainder, as the main ingredient. The coefficient of thermal expansion of a composite oxide of NiO-TiO2 is regulated within the range of 85-130X10<-7>/ deg.C (25-400 deg.C) based on the ratio of composition. As a result, the stability of the oxide substrate for the contact travelling by a magnetic recording medium can be enhanced.

This is due to the magnetic structure of the RAD. Unless the thermal expansion coefficients of the soft magnetic material and the substrate material are equal or the difference is extremely small, temperature changes will generate stress at the bonding interface between the two materials, causing cracks. or the magnetic properties of the soft magnetic material deteriorate due to the magnetostrictive effect. Therefore, it is necessary to use a substrate material whose thermal expansion coefficient can be freely changed according to the thermal expansion coefficient depending on the type and composition of the soft magnetic material used.

Problems to be solved by the invention However, crystallized glass and CaO-SrO-T10
2-based ceramic substrates are chemically unstable because they contain alkali metals or This causes magnetic particles to adhere to the magnetic tape, degrading the magnetic head characteristics.With NiMnO2 ceramic substrates, such adhesion from the magnetic tape does not occur, but when MnO is heated in air, it oxidizes and becomes Mn2C. ) 5, the atmosphere during firing must be non-oxidizing, and it is difficult to produce a high-density sintered body using normal methods, which increases the production cost. In addition, there were drawbacks such as poor grindability and poor processing efficiency when processing into the shape to be used.

On the other hand, MgO-TiO2 ceramic substrates do not have the above problems, but their thermal expansion coefficient is 95X10-
Those with a composition exceeding '/'C (25 to 400°C) have the disadvantage of causing deliquescence under high humidity conditions because they contain free MgO. Furthermore, these substrate materials have problems in being put into practical use as substrates for magnetic heads because they may chip, cause so-called chi-soping, or cause crystal grains to fall off during machining.
