(Torr) (approximately 76℃),
An electron beam of 5QK■ was passed through a titanium foil with a thickness of 3Qμ, and while irradiating it at 105μA/cM, 69ml1sin was applied.
The sample was wound up and treated with stearic acid by steam. This process is performed using a 6ocrn wide polymer film with a length of 3 OOO
The test was carried out using a number of objects to be processed. From this, a magnetic tape of 8mm x 9 width was obtained. For comparison, a material with stearic acid vapor deposited was also produced with a width of 5ocTn and a length of 300'm.
Then an 8 mm wide magnetic tape was obtained. Samples of the examples and comparative examples were arbitrarily extracted in the width direction and longitudinal direction, and 30 rolls of tape each having a length of 50 m were investigated. The error rate for early PCM recording was 1.5 x 10" on an 8mm videotape recorder.
-"~3.1X10-", there was no difference, but 66℃as
The PCM error rate after being left at %RH for one month was 2.2X10-5 to 4.9X10 in the present example, while it was 4.9X10 in the comparative example. lX10”-”~2. I Xl
It was confirmed that the uniformity of this example can also be said to be a characteristic of the manufacturing method.
