Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a magnetic recording medium having a two-layer magnetic layer structure, and more particularly to a magnetic recording medium excellent in electromagnetic conversion characteristics and durability.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art A coating type magnetic recording medium is obtained by coating a magnetic coating material obtained by dispersing magnetic powder in a binder and an organic solvent on a substrate such as polyester and drying it. There is an increasing demand for higher density recording such as high quality video tapes and large capacity floppy disks.

Ferromagnetic metal powders composed mainly of iron are most often used as magnetic powders for achieving this purpose. Ferromagnetic metal powder composed mainly of iron has high saturation magnetization and coercive force, and has excellent output characteristics. However, since it is chemically unstable and easily rusts (is easily oxidized), the saturation magnetization is lowered by oxidation, and the noise characteristic is not always sufficient, and generally the noise level is higher than that of the oxide magnetic powder. Further, the ferromagnetic metal powder mainly composed of iron has a high cost and has some drawbacks in practical use.

A perpendicular magnetic recording method has been proposed as a method for realizing high-density recording, and hexagonal plate-shaped barium ferrite is used as a magnetic powder particularly suitable for this method. However, since barium ferrite has a low saturation magnetization, when used as a magnetic tape or a magnetic disk, the residual magnetic flux density becomes low and the output in the low range becomes insufficient. Further, when barium ferrite is used, there is a problem that the surface roughness of the formed magnetic layer becomes large.

In order to solve such a problem, it has been attempted to improve the output characteristics by making the single-layer magnetic layer, which has been the mainstream in the past, a double-layer structure. For example, in JP-A-62-78718, an oxide having a coercive force equal to or higher than the coercive force of the metal magnetic powder in the lower layer is used by using a metal magnetic powder (iron, cobalt, nickel, etc. or an alloy thereof) in the lower layer. A magnetic recording medium has been disclosed in which magnetic powder (γ-Fe ₂ O ₃ , Fe ₃ O _4, etc.) is used as an upper layer and the magnetic layer has a two-layer structure. However, the magnetic recording medium described in this publication has an insufficient output in a high frequency region, and its S / N is low, so that the noise characteristic is also insufficient.

In addition to this, as a magnetic recording medium having a magnetic layer having a two-layer structure, Japanese Examined Patent Publication No. 63-56608, Japanese Examined Patent Publication No. 3-6575, Japanese Examined Patent Publication No. 3-53689, and Japanese Examined Publication No. 3-
No. 53690 and the like, but these are intended to improve either the magnetic properties or the corrosion resistance, and it has not been achieved to improve both of them.

[0007]

As described above, in a magnetic recording medium intended for high density recording, it is still insufficient to improve both magnetic characteristics and physical characteristics such as running property in a well-balanced manner. However, the problem to be solved by the present invention is to further improve high frequency characteristics and S / N in a magnetic recording medium that enables high density recording, to improve running performance by lowering the friction coefficient, and It is to eliminate the head clogging caused by the above, and to reduce the decrease of the saturation magnetic flux density during storage more than the ferromagnetic metal powder mainly composed of iron.
