[Industrial Field of Application] The present invention relates to a magnetic recording medium, and more particularly to a magnetic recording medium with excellent durability and electromagnetic conversion characteristics. [Prior art] Magnetic recording in which the recording element is a metal magnetic powder such as iron or an alloy of iron with a small amount of cobalt or nickel as the main component, and a magnetic coating film containing this as the main component is applied to the substrate. The medium has excellent electromagnetic conversion characteristics, especially frequency characteristics and saturation level, but since these metal magnetic powders are relatively soft, the coating film strength is weak and durability is poor. On the other hand, cobalt-containing iron oxide magnetic powder (hereinafter referred to as cobalt epitaxial iron oxide magnetic powder) in which cobalt-containing ferromagnetic iron oxide crystals are formed on the surface of ferromagnetic iron oxide powder is used as a recording element, and this is the main component. A magnetic recording medium in which a magnetic coating film is applied to a substrate has strong coating strength and excellent durability because the magnetic powder is hard, but the electromagnetic conversion characteristics are inferior to those in which the magnetic metal powder is used as a recording element. [Problems to be Solved by the Invention] The present invention provides that when metal magnetic powder such as iron or an alloy of iron containing iron as a main component and a small amount of cobalt or nickel is used as a recording element, Since the magnetic powder is relatively soft, the strength of the coating film is weak and the durability is poor. The purpose of this is to improve the drawback that electromagnetic conversion characteristics are inferior to those of other types. [Means for Solving the Problems] The present invention is directed to the characteristics of metal magnetic powder such as iron or an alloy of iron mainly composed of iron and a small amount of cobalt or nickel, and cobalt epitaxial iron oxide magnetic powder. It was developed with a focus on acicular magnetic powder with a coercive force of 600 to 1400 oersteds, such as iron or an alloy of iron with a small amount of cobalt or nickel, and acicular cobalt epitaxy. Both durability and electromagnetic conversion characteristics are sufficiently improved by mixing the mixed magnetic powder with a magnetic powder of iron oxide and applying a magnetic coating film containing the mixed magnetic powder as a main component to a substrate. According to this invention, iron or iron containing iron as a main component exhibits good electromagnetic conversion characteristics, especially frequency characteristics and saturation level, but has the inherent drawback that its coating film strength is weak due to its relative softness. and a small amount of cobalt or nickel to form an acicular magnetic metal powder, which is itself hard, so it forms a strong coating and does not have the durability problems mentioned above, but on the other hand, it has inferior electromagnetic conversion characteristics. By mixing and using acicular cobalt epitaxial iron oxide magnetic powder, which has the disadvantages of can get. In addition, since both magnetic powders are acicular, they can be well dispersed when used together.
As a result, durability is sufficiently improved. Needle-shaped metal magnetic powder with a coercive force of 600 to 1400 oersteds, such as iron or an alloy of iron mainly composed of iron and a small amount of cobalt or nickel, and needle-shaped cobalt epitaxial iron oxide magnetic powder. The mixing ratio of the cobalt epitaxial iron oxide magnetic powder is preferably within the range of 99:1 to 50:50 by weight; if the mixing amount of the cobalt epitaxial iron oxide magnetic powder is less than this, the durability cannot be sufficiently improved. If the amount exceeds this value, it is difficult to obtain good electromagnetic conversion characteristics. The metal magnetic powder used in this invention includes:
Metal magnetic powder such as iron or an alloy of iron with a small amount of cobalt or nickel is preferably used. For example, γ-Fe 2 O 3 powder is mixed in a mixed solution of silver nitrate and silicone oil. After soaking, filtration and drying, in a hydrogen stream at 350℃ for 10
Iron powder obtained by time reduction is preferably used. In order to obtain suitable electromagnetic conversion characteristics, the coercive force of such metal magnetic powder is preferably in the range of 600 to 1400 oersteds, and the axial ratio is 2.
or more, preferably 5 to 10, and the length in the major axis direction is 0.7μ
A metal magnetic powder having a diameter of less than m, preferably 0.2 to 0.5 μm is suitably used. Cobalt epitaxial iron oxide magnetic powder can be produced by, for example, adding ferromagnetic iron oxide powder to a mixed solution of a solution of cobalt salt or a metal salt containing cobalt salt, and an alkaline solution having a concentration such that at least cobalt hydroxide precipitates. Ferromagnetic iron oxide crystals containing cobalt are formed on the surface of the ferromagnetic iron oxide powder by dispersing the powder and heating the dispersion below the boiling point, and the coercive force is in the range of 350 to 700 oersteds. are preferably used.
In addition, the particle size is 1 μm or less, preferably 0.3 to 0.8 μm,
Those having an axial ratio of 5 or more, preferably 5 to 10 are preferably used, and in order to obtain good durability, those having a larger particle size than those mentioned above are recommended. [Example] Next, an example of the present invention will be described. Example 1 α-Fe magnetic powder (particle size approximately 0.4 μm, axial ratio approximately 7, coercive force 1100 oersted) 144 parts by weight Cobalt epitaxial iron oxide magnetic powder (particle size approximately 0.6 μm, axial ratio approximately 7, coercive force 550 Ersted)
16 〃 Vinyl chloride-vinyl acetate-vinyl alcohol copolymer 24 〃 Polyether polyurethane prepolymer having isocyanate groups at both ends 16 〃 Toluene 150 〃 Methyl isobutyl ketone 150 〃 These compositions are dispersed and mixed in a ball mill to make magnetic A paint was prepared, applied onto a polyester base film, dried, and then cut to a predetermined width to make a magnetic tape. Example 2 In the composition of the magnetic paint in Example 1, α

Comparative Example 1 A magnetic tape was produced in the same manner as in Example 1, except that 160 parts by weight of α-Fe magnetic powder alone was used instead of the mixed magnetic powder in the composition of the magnetic paint in Example 1. Comparative Example 2 A magnetic tape was produced in the same manner as in Example 1, except that 160 parts by weight of cobalt epitaxial iron oxide magnetic powder alone was used in place of the mixed magnetic powder in the composition of the magnetic paint in Example 1. Comparative Example 3 In the composition of the magnetic paint in Example 2, only Fe-Co alloy magnetic powder was used instead of mixed magnetic powder.
A magnetic tape was prepared in the same manner as in Example 2, except that 160 parts by weight was used. Comparative Example 4 In the composition of the magnetic paint in Example 3, only Fe-Ni alloy magnetic powder was used instead of the mixed magnetic powder.
A magnetic tape was produced in the same manner as in Example 3, except that 160 parts by weight was used. Frequency characteristics, saturation levels, and steel characteristics were measured for the magnetic tapes obtained in each Example and Comparative Example. The frequency characteristics were measured at a frequency of 7kHz based on JIS.C5542, and measurements were made in the same manner with the frequencies changed to 10kHz, 12.5kHz, and 15kHz, respectively. In addition, the saturation level was recorded by changing the input level of a 12.5kHz signal, and was shown as the output level when the output level was the highest. In addition, the steel characteristic is loaded with magnetic tape into a video tape recorder,
Write the carrier signal at -5℃, stop the magnetic tape and rotate only the magnetic head, and the output will be 6dB.
