Abstract

Abstract An improvement of a magnetic recording medium in the continuous form comprising a nonmagnetic support, a magnetic recording layer provided on one surface of the support, and a back layer provided on the other surface of the support comprising a binder and nonmagnetic particles dispersed therein. The improvement resides in that the binder of the back layer mainly contains: a polyurethane resin containing a repeating unit having at least one polar group selected from the group consisting of --SO 3 M, --OSO 3 M, --COOM and --PO(PM') 2 , wherein M is hydrogen or an alkali metal atom, and M' is hydrogen, an alkali metal atom or a lower hydrocarbon group; and a vinyl chloride copolymer containing a repeating unit having at least one polar group selected from the group consisting of --SO 3 M, --OSO 3 M, --COOM and --PO(OM') 2 , wherein M and M' have the same meanings as defined above.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim 185 words
In a magnetic recording medium in a continuous form comprising a nonmagnetic support, a magnetic recording layer provided on one surface of the support, and a back layer provided on the other surface of the support comprising a binder and nonmagnetic particles dispersed therein, the improvement wherein said binder contains as principal ingredients: a polyurethane resin containing a repeating unit having at least one polar group selected from the group consisting of --so 3 M, --OSO 3 M, --COOM and --PO(OM') 2 , wherein M is hydrogen or an alkali metal atom, and M' is hydrogen, an alkali metal atom or a lower hydrocarbon group, in an amount of 0.001-50 mol %; and a vinyl chloride copolymer containing a repeating unit having at least one polar group selected from the group consisting of --SO 3 M, --OSO 3 M, [--COOM] and --PO(OM') 2 , wherein M and M' have the same meanings as defined above, in an amount of 0.001-5.0 mol %; and the ratio between the vinyl chloride copolymer and the polyurethane resin being in the range of from 35:65 to 80:20, by weight.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 185 words
In a magnetic recording medium in a continuous form comprising a nonmagnetic support, a magnetic recording layer provided on one surface of the support, and a back layer provided on the other surface of the support comprising a binder and nonmagnetic particles dispersed therein, the improvement wherein said binder contains as principal ingredients: a polyurethane resin containing a repeating unit having at least one polar group selected from the group consisting of --so 3 M, --OSO 3 M, --COOM and --PO(OM') 2 , wherein M is hydrogen or an alkali metal atom, and M' is hydrogen, an alkali metal atom or a lower hydrocarbon group, in an amount of 0.001-50 mol %; and a vinyl chloride copolymer containing a repeating unit having at least one polar group selected from the group consisting of --SO 3 M, --OSO 3 M, [--COOM] and --PO(OM') 2 , wherein M and M' have the same meanings as defined above, in an amount of 0.001-5.0 mol %; and the ratio between the vinyl chloride copolymer and the polyurethane resin being in the range of from 35:65 to 80:20, by weight.
