The present invention relates to a cleaning tape having the effect of cleaning a magnetic head, and an object of the present invention is to provide a cleaning tape that can remove only foreign matter adhering to a magnetic head without abrading or damaging the magnetic head. It is in. Dust, magnetic powder, and other magnetic coating particles may adhere to the magnetic head of a magnetic recording and reproducing device during recording and reproducing operations. If these foreign substances adhere to the magnetic head, the recording and reproducing efficiency of the magnetic head will decrease. , the sound quality or image deteriorates. For this reason, cleaning tapes are usually used, which are made by coating a substrate such as a polyester base film with a mixture of abrasive grains such as silicon carbide (SiC), an extender, and a binder. By making sliding contact with the magnetic head, foreign matter such as dust and magnetic powder adhering to the magnetic head is removed. However, since conventional cleaning tapes use large abrasive grains and the surface of the abrasive coating is rough, there is a risk of abrasion of the magnetic head when using this cleaning tape to remove foreign matter from a clogged magnetic head. There is a risk that the magnetic head may be worn out and damaged even if used for a very short time, especially when used in magnetic heads such as video magnetic heads, which are small and slide at high speed and are easily damaged by small impacts. There is. The inventors conducted various studies to improve this drawback, and found that if the surface roughness of the abrasive coating film was reduced to a centerline average roughness of 0.10μ or less, the magnetic head would not be worn or damaged, and If this is done, the surface of the abrasive coating film will not become too smooth and foreign matter adhering to the magnetic head can be removed well, and the abrasive grains mixed in with the filler in the abrasive coating film will have a particle size of 0.2~
By using abrasive grains with a Mohs hardness of 9 or more and granular iron oxide magnetic powder, and using the amount of the abrasive grains of 2.0μ or more and using the amount less than 40% by weight based on the total amount with the filler, the surface roughness of the abrasive coating can be improved. We have found that it is possible to reduce the average center line roughness to 0.04 to 0.10 μm, and to remove only adhered foreign matter from the magnetic head without abrading or damaging the magnetic head. It was also found that images, etc. can be recorded in the abrasive coating film by incorporating magnetic powder as an extender, leading to the present invention. The abrasive grains used in this invention have a particle size of 0.2μ
If the following or 2.0 μ or less is used, the surface roughness of the abrasive coating will be reduced to a center line average roughness of 0.04 to 0.10.
Particle size of 0.2 to 2.0μ is used because it cannot achieve the intended purpose. Also, if the particle size of the abrasive grains is in the range of 0.2 to 2.0μ, the harder the abrasive grains, the better the cleaning effect.
If hard abrasive grains with a Mohs hardness of 9 or more are used alone, the magnetic head will be worn out and damaged, and the manufacturing equipment will also be worn out, so granular iron oxide magnetic powder is used in combination. When these two are used in combination, the granular iron oxide magnetic powder has a hardness almost equivalent to that of the magnetic layer of a magnetic recording medium (Mohs hardness: about 6), so the synergistic effect of the two allows cleaning of the magnetic head without causing wear and damage. The effect is improved. In particular, since magnetic powder is used in this invention, magnetic recording can be performed appropriately. The mixing ratio of the abrasive grains with a Mohs hardness of 9 or more and the granular iron oxide magnetic powder used together is preferably 1:1 to 1:5. If the mixing ratio of the abrasive grains with a Mohs hardness of 9 or more is too large, magnetic There is a risk of abrasion or damage to the head, and if the mixing ratio of the granular iron oxide magnetic powder is too high, the cleaning effect cannot be further improved. The amount used is 10 to 40% of the total amount of the mixture with the filler in the above ratio.
It is preferable to adjust the amount to % by weight; if it is too large, the magnetic head is likely to be damaged, and if it is too small, a good cleaning effect cannot be obtained. Examples of abrasive grains having a grain size of 0.2 to 2.0 μm and a Mohs hardness of 9 or higher include silicon carbide (SiC). Extending agents include magnetic powder, acicular non-magnetic powder,
Carbon black or the like is used, and carbon black in particular is used in combination with magnetic powder or the like because it effectively prevents light transmission and also has an antistatic effect. The amount used is 60 to 90% by weight based on the total amount including abrasive grains.
It is preferable to use When magnetic powder is included as an extender, it becomes possible to record images in the abrasive coating, and if the images are recorded, it can be reproduced to determine whether or not the attached foreign matter has been removed from the magnetic head. It is convenient to know the cleaning status of the magnetic head, but in order to record images etc. in the abrasive coating film, the total amount of magnetic powder, abrasive grains, and other extenders is necessary. It is necessary to contain at least 50% by weight. Binders for binding abrasive grains and extenders to a substrate such as a polyester base film include vinyl chloride-vinylidene chloride copolymer, vinyl chloride-vinyl acetate-vinyl alcohol copolymer, vinyl chloride-vinyl propionate-maleic acid. A copolymer or the like is preferably used, and the amount used is determined so that the abrasive grains and extender can be well bonded to the substrate and exhibit a good cleaning effect. 10-40 for the total amount with
Preferably, it is expressed as % by weight. Next, embodiments of the invention will be described. Example Cobalt-containing acicular iron oxide magnetic powder 70 parts by weight Cobalt-containing granular iron oxide magnetic powder (average particle size
0.5μ) 15 〃 SiC (average particle size 1.0μ) 10 〃 Carbon black 5 〃 Lieuron QA-431 (vinyl chloride-vinyl propionate-maleic acid copolymer manufactured by Toyo Soda Co., Ltd.)
25 parts by weight Methyl isobutyl ketone 100 Toluene 100 These compositions were mixed and dispersed in a ball mill for 96 hours, and this was applied onto a 21μ thick polyester film 1 to a dry thickness of 6μ as shown in the drawing. After drying, it was calendered at 60° C. and 210 kg/cm (linear pressure) to form an abrasive coating film 2 having a centerline average roughness of 0.06 μm. After that, I cut it to the specified width and made cleaning tape. Comparative Example In the paint composition of the example, α-Al 2 O 3 (average particle size
A cleaning tape was prepared in the same manner as in Example except that the same amount of 0.5μ) was used. The cleaning tapes obtained in the Examples and Comparative Examples were applied to a video tape recorder whose magnetic head was clogged due to detachment of the magnetic coating film or adhesion of dust, etc., and the extent to which the clog was removed and the extent to which the magnetic head was damaged by the cleaning tape were examined. Examined. The table below shows the results.

This shows that according to the present invention, only the foreign matter adhering to the magnetic head can be removed without abrading or damaging the magnetic head.
