Abstract

PURPOSE:To provide the title powder having excellent stability of coercive force by incorporating Ca at >=3wt.% to Co into a cobalt ferrite layer of specific cobalt-contg. iron oxide magnetic powder. CONSTITUTION:Ca is incorporated at >=3wt.% to Co into the cobalt ferrite layer of the cobalt-contg. iron oxide magnetic powder which consists of the iron oxide magnetic powder formed with the cobalt ferrite layer on the surface thereof and has >=700oersted coercive force, <=0.3mum particle size and >=0.05 Fe<2+>/Fe<3+>. The cobalt ions and cation vacancies are thereby hardly moved, by which the coercive force is stabilized and the increase of the coercive force with age is suppressed.

[Prior Art] Iron oxide magnetic powder containing cobalt has a higher coercive force than iron oxide magnetic powder commonly used as a recording element of conventional magnetic recording media. Products with a cobalt ferrite layer have relatively stable coercive force compared to cobalt-containing iron oxide magnetic powders in which cobalt ions are dissolved deep inside the particles, making them useful recording elements for high-performance magnetic recording media. It is widely used as (Japanese Patent Publication No. 58-52927) [Problems to be Solved by the Invention] However, with this type of cobalt-containing iron oxide magnetic powder in which a cobalt ferrite layer is formed on the particle surface, the cobalt ferrite layer becomes thick and Fe+ When the value of /Fe3* increases or the particle size decreases, cobalt ions and cation vacancies become more mobile in the cobalt ferrite layer, resulting in insufficient coercive force stability. In particular, in the case of fine particles with a particle diameter of 0.3 μm or less, in order to achieve a high coercive force of 700 Oe or more, 31' e27 Fe3* must be set to 0.05 or more, which causes the coercive force to become unstable. hand,
The drawback is that the coercive force increases over time.

In this invention, it is preferable that Ca contained in the cobalt ferrite layer on the surface of the iron oxide magnetic powder is 3% by weight or more with respect to Co in the cobalt ferrite layer,
When Ca is contained in a cobalt ferrite layer in an amount of 3% by weight or more based on Co, the Ca ions in the cobalt ferrite layer make it difficult for cobalt ions and cation vacancies to move, stabilizing the coercive force and increasing the coercive force. Increase over time is suppressed. Furthermore, the stability of the coercive force of the magnetic recording medium obtained using this type of cobalt-containing iron oxide magnetic powder is further improved. On the other hand, if the amount of Ca contained in the cobalt ferrite layer is less than 3% by weight relative to Co, the desired effect cannot be obtained. If it exceeds % by weight, it is not preferable because the coercive force and saturation magnetization of the product decrease.
