Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain a high quality Co alloy for vapor deposition causing no sudden partial boiling of molten metal by specifying a compsn. consisting of Ni, C and Co. CONSTITUTION:The amount of C in a Co alloy consisting of 10-30wt% Ni and the balance C and Co with inevitable impurities is regulated 0.0005-0.003wt% to obtain a high quality Co alloy for vapor deposition. When the resulting Co alloy is melted and evaporated by heating to >=about 2,000 deg.C with electron beams or the like and a thin metallic film is vapor-deposited to produce a thin metallic film type magnetic recording medium, the Co alloy causes no sudden partial boiling of molten metal, so a long-sized magnetic recording medium of a uniform thickness can be stably produced.

When manufacturing metal thin film magnetic recording media on an industrial scale, when using a vapor deposition material, the vapor deposition material is heated and melted with an electron beam, and then the target metal molten metal is heated and melted, and then an electron beam is applied to the molten metal. The process includes a step of evaporating the target metal, which is necessary to form a thin metal film by continuing the process, and the temperature of the molten metal must be raised to over 200°C.

In this case, the molten metal made from cobalt alloy, which has traditionally been produced for metal thin film magnetic recording media, sometimes exhibits a sudden partial boiling phenomenon, causing the particles necessary to produce the metal thin film to be produced. In addition to scattering gigantic metal particles exceeding the diameter of the magnetic recording medium, it also causes uneven film thickness of the metal thin film magnetic recording medium layer, which is the purpose of production, and cuts the tape, forcing the operation to stop midway. Many people have desired to improve its characteristics.

The present invention aims to stably produce long metal thin film magnetic recording media by supplying a high-quality cobalt alloy that does not cause sudden partial boiling of the molten metal used as a base bonding material, thereby preventing accidents. The idea is to prevent it from happening. As a result of extensive research, the present inventors have found that the sudden partial boiling phenomenon of molten metal that occurs when proceeding with the vapor deposition process using a cobalt alloy for vapor deposition base material is greatly influenced by the amount of carbon contained in the material. The carbon content of the cobalt alloy used as the base material for vapor deposition, which contains 10 to 30% by weight of nickel and the balance consists of carbon, cobalt, and unavoidable impurities, was determined by
By specifying 0.0005 to 0.003% by weight,
Cobalt is used to prevent sudden partial boiling of molten metal when vacuum evaporating metal thin film magnetic recording media, and to stably manufacture long magnetic recording media with uniform thickness. The purpose is to provide a vapor deposition material for alloys.

The reason why the nickel content is defined as 10 to 30 weight percent in the present invention is because the metal thin film recording medium has cobalt as its main component, and if the nickel content is less than 10 weight percent, the corrosion resistance of the metal thin film will deteriorate. If it exceeds 30% by weight, the residual magnetic force of the metal magnetic thin film will decrease significantly and the magnetic properties as a recording medium, which is the original purpose, will be impaired. It is for this purpose.

The reason why carbon is specified as 0.0005 to 0.003% by weight is that if the carbon content is less than o, ooos% by weight, unsoundness of the material is unavoidable when making an ingot.
This is because if the concentration exceeds 3%, sudden partial boiling of the molten metal to be deposited by the electron beam is likely to occur.

In the present invention, the main components of the base material for vapor deposition are limited to cobalt, carbon, and nickel, but for the purpose of improving the corrosion resistance of the metal thin film used as a magnetic recording medium, aluminum, silicon, copper, Regarding vapor deposition materials containing one or more elements selected from the group consisting of molybdenum, titanium, and rare earth elements, the carbon content should be reduced to 0.00.
By setting the content to 0.05 to 0.003% by weight, sudden partial boiling of the molten metal can be easily prevented.
