Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim 94 words
A magnetic recording medium comprising a magnetic recording layer on the surface of a non-magnetic support, the magnetic recording layer comprising a ferromagnetic powder, 0.1 to 2% by weight based on the weight of the ferromagnetic powder of a saturated or unsaturated fatty acid having 6 to 22 carbon atoms, 0.01 to 1% by weight based on the weight of the ferromagnetic powder of a polysiloxane and 0.1 to 2% by weight based on the weight of the ferromagnetic powder of a fatty acid ester having a melting point of at most 60° C.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 94 words
A magnetic recording medium comprising a magnetic recording layer on the surface of a non-magnetic support, the magnetic recording layer comprising a ferromagnetic powder, 0.1 to 2% by weight based on the weight of the ferromagnetic powder of a saturated or unsaturated fatty acid having 6 to 22 carbon atoms, 0.01 to 1% by weight based on the weight of the ferromagnetic powder of a polysiloxane and 0.1 to 2% by weight based on the weight of the ferromagnetic powder of a fatty acid ester having a melting point of at most 60° C.
