Abstract

Abstract Magnetic recording media are described which are characterized by a recording layer formed on at least one side of a support and made of magnetic particles and a TiO powder dispersed throughout a resin binder. The TiO powder is used in an amount of 0.1 to 35 wt % of the magnetic particles and has an average size of about 0.015 to 5 microns.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim 86 words
A magnetic recording medium comprising a substrate, and a recording layer formed on at least one side of the substrate and made of magnetic particles selected from the group consisting of ferromagnetic metal oxide particles and ferromagnetic metal particles and from 0.15 to 35 wt %, based on said magnetic particles, of a non-magnetic powder consisting essentially of TiO powder having an average particle size of from 0.015 to 5.0 microns, both of said magnetic particles and said TiO powder being dispersed throughout a resin binder.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 86 words
A magnetic recording medium comprising a substrate, and a recording layer formed on at least one side of the substrate and made of magnetic particles selected from the group consisting of ferromagnetic metal oxide particles and ferromagnetic metal particles and from 0.15 to 35 wt %, based on said magnetic particles, of a non-magnetic powder consisting essentially of TiO powder having an average particle size of from 0.015 to 5.0 microns, both of said magnetic particles and said TiO powder being dispersed throughout a resin binder.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 19 words
A magnetic recording medium according to claim 1, wherein said substrate has the recording layer on one side thereof.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 19 words
A magnetic recording medium according to claim 1, wherein said substrate has the recording layer on each side thereof.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 35 words
A magnetic recording medium according to claim 1, wherein said non-magnetic TiO powder is a mixture of TiO powders of different sizes provided that its maximum size is below a thickness of the recording medium.
