(Industrial Application Field) The present invention relates to a magnetic recording medium, such as a magnetic tape, in which a magnetic layer or a magnetic layer and a back coat layer are formed on a nonmagnetic support. (Prior art) In ordinary magnetic tapes, a magnetic layer is provided on a non-magnetic support (base) such as polyethylene terephthalate film, and a back coat layer is provided on the opposite side as necessary. . The magnetic layer is formed by applying a magnetic paint containing magnetic powder and binder resin as main components onto a non-magnetic support. On the other hand, magnetic recording media such as magnetic tape in recent years are
Higher performance and higher reliability are required, and specific measures to achieve these demands include improving the dispersibility of magnetic powder in the magnetic layer and improving the durability of the magnetic layer. , improving the surface properties of the magnetic layer, and improving the adhesion of the magnetic layer to the support (base). First, methods to improve the dispersibility of magnetic powder include using a soft binder resin with high dispersibility and increasing the amount of surfactant, but in either case, the magnetic layer It softens and reduces durability. Additionally, a common method for improving the adhesion of the magnetic layer to the support (base) is to provide an undercoat layer between the magnetic layer and the base, but in actual production,
In addition to making the production process very complicated, there are also problems in that it is difficult to maintain surface quality because the coating is applied to the base twice in total. In order to solve these problems, the present inventors have conducted various studies and found that polyvinylpyrrolidone (abbreviated as PVP) with an average molecular weight in the range of 10,000 to 500,000 is used as part of the binder resin of the magnetic layer. It has been found that by using it, it is possible to improve the dispersibility of magnetic powder and maintain a highly dispersed state stably over a long period of time, as well as improve the adhesion to the base film and the durability of the magnetic layer. I discovered that. Furthermore, polyvinylpyrrolidone has the structural formula shown below, and has the property of being well soluble in many organic solvents as well as alcohol and water. Therefore, in the magnetic paint, it acts as a hydrophilic group for magnetic powder and other inorganic additives, and acts as a lipophilic group for binder resins and organic solvents. Therefore, polyvinylpyrrolidone provides high dispersibility for magnetic powder and other additives as a high-performance surfactant, and furthermore, this dispersion state is highly stable and difficult to re-agglomerate. In addition, polyvinylpyrrolidone exhibits high compatibility with many types of binder resins, resulting in increased bonding strength between the binder resins, improving the durability of the coating film, and improving adhesion to the base film resin surface. It also improves. The amount of polyvinylpyrrolidone added to the binder resin can be determined at any ratio (1% of the total binder resin).
50% by weight), but desirably about 5 to 20% by weight of the entire binder resin.
In addition, a suitable average molecular weight is about 10,000 to 500,000, but among these, one with a certain molecular weight distribution may be used alone, or one with a different average molecular weight may be used with a certain molecular weight. It is also possible to mix and use these materials so that they are distributed around the center. However, if a material with a low molecular weight is used, the durability will decrease, and if a material with a large average molecular weight is used, the fluidity of the magnetic coating will be impaired. Therefore, it is preferable to use a material with an average molecular weight of about 20,000 to 200,000. (Object of the Invention) In view of the above, an object of the present invention is to provide a magnetic recording medium with excellent adhesiveness, dispersibility, and durability of the magnetic layer. (Means for Solving the Problems) In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides a magnetic recording medium in which a magnetic layer or a magnetic layer and a back coat layer are formed on a non-magnetic support. Polyvinylpyrrolidone (abbreviated as PVP) with an average molecular weight in the range of 10,000 to 500,000 is added to the entire resin.
The present invention provides a magnetic recording medium characterized by containing 50% by weight. (Example) Specific examples (experimental examples) of the magnetic recording medium according to the present invention are shown below. In addition, this example (experimental example)
In order to make it easier to understand the effect on dispersibility, polyester (PET) resin, which does not have very good dispersibility, is used as a binder. Example 1 γ-Fe 2 O 3 100 parts by weight, polyester (PET)
25 parts by weight of resin, polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP)
A magnetic paint obtained by dissolving 5 parts by weight of resin (having an average molecular weight of 40,000) and 6 parts by weight of carbon black in 100 parts by weight of toluene and 100 parts by weight of methyl ethyl ketone and then dispersing it in a sand mill for 10 hours, for example,
For example, 5 μm on a 15 μm thick base film.
After applying the film to a thickness of 100 ml, calendering it and slitting it into a predetermined width, for example, a magnetic tape for a video tape recorder is obtained. Example 2 γ-Fe 2 O 3 100 parts by weight, polyester (PET)
20 parts by weight of resin, polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP)
A magnetic paint obtained by dissolving 10 parts by weight of resin (having an average molecular weight of 40,000) and 6 parts by weight of carbon black in 100 parts by weight of toluene and 100 parts by weight of methyl ethyl ketone, and then dispersing it in a sand mill for 10 hours, for example.
For example, 5 μm on a 15 μm thick base film.
After applying the film to a thickness of 100 ml, calendering it and slitting it into a predetermined width, for example, a magnetic tape for a video tape recorder is obtained. Comparative example 1 100 parts by weight of γ-Fe 2 O 3 , polyester (PET)
After dissolving 30 parts by weight of resin and 6 parts by weight of carbon black in 100 parts by weight of toluene and 100 parts by weight of methyl ethyl ketone, a magnetic tape for a video tape recorder was obtained by the same procedure as in the example. Comparative Example 2 After dissolving 100 parts by weight of γ-Fe 2 O 3 , 30 parts by weight of vinyl chloride-vinyl acetate copolymer, and 6 parts by weight of carbon black in 100 parts by weight of toluene and 100 parts by weight of methyl ethyl ketone, the same solution as in Example was prepared. A magnetic tape for a video tape recorder is obtained by the procedure. Table 1 shows the results of measuring the magnetic properties (maximum magnetic flux density), surface electrical resistance, coating peel strength, and increase/decrease in the number of dropouts after 200 continuous replays for each of the above Examples and Comparative Examples.

[Table] To explain how to measure the above data, the maximum magnetic flux density is the value measured using a vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM) on a sample made into a magnetic tape. The surface electrical resistance value is calculated by connecting two rod-shaped metal electrodes with a cross section of a quarter circle with a radius of approximately 1 cm to 12.7 mm (=
Place a magnetic tape (width 12.7 mm) perpendicularly on top of these so that their magnetic surfaces touch, and hang weights of 160 g each from both ends of the magnetic tape. This is the resistance value measured by applying a measurement voltage of 500±50V DC to these electrodes using an insulation resistance meter. The peel strength of the paint film was determined by attaching a magnetic tape sample (width 12.7 mm) with the base film facing up on the adhesive tape fixed on the base, and then attaching a spring balance to one end of the base film. This is the weight value indicated by the spring balance when it is pulled vertically at a speed of approximately 1 cm/sec. The number of dropouts is due to scratches or foreign objects on the magnetic tape surface, which may cause the playback signal output to drop by 24dB.
The phenomenon of decreasing over 5μsec or more is
This is a value calculated by counting the number of times this occurs in one minute. That is, according to the evaluation results shown in Table 1, the magnetic tapes containing polyvinylpyrrolidone in the binder resin as in Examples 1 and 2 are more magnetic than the magnetic tape of Comparative Example 1 that does not contain polyvinylpyrrolidone. Due to its high dispersibility and stability against powder and carbon black, its magnetic properties and antistatic effect are improved. Furthermore, since the adhesiveness is improved, the peel strength is also increased. Furthermore, since the durability has been improved, the tape surface does not deteriorate much even after repeated use, and the number of dropouts hardly increases. In Comparative Example 2, the most common binder resin, vinyl chloride-vinyl acetate copolymer, was used for comparison with other examples. The magnetic tape of Comparative Example 2 has better dispersibility and adhesiveness than that of Comparative Example 1, but is inferior in durability.
On the other hand, the magnetic tapes according to Examples 1 and 2 are clearly superior to Comparative Example 2 in terms of dispersibility and adhesion. (Effects of the Invention) Since the magnetic recording medium of the present invention contains polyvinylpyrrolidone in the binder resin as described above, the magnetic recording medium of the present invention has significantly improved dispersibility, adhesiveness, and durability compared to magnetic recording media using only a conventional binder resin. It has the advantage of being able to hope for improvement.
