A magnetic recording medium comprises a substrate composed of a polyimide film bearing, on a face thereof, a polyimide coated layer containing inorganic particles dispersed therein, and a magnetic recording layer formed on said polyimide coated layer. A magnetic recording medium comprises a substrate composed of a polyimide film containing inorganic particles dispersed therein and bearing, on a face thereof, a polyimide coated layer containing inorganic particles dispersed therein, and a magnetic recording layer formed on the other face of said polyimide film, wherein the average particle size of the inorganic particles dispersed in said polyimide film is smaller than that of the inorganic particles dispersed in said polyimide coated layer. A magnetic recording medium comprises a magnetic recording layer formed by a thin film deposition process on a substrate, wherein said substrate is provided, on the surface thereof, with small projections with a density of 10.sup.5 to 10.sup.8 projections/mm.sup.2, and the statistical distribution of the heights of said projections satisfies following relations H.sub.0.01 <600 .ANG., H.sub.0.1 >120 .ANG., H.sub.1 >100 .ANG. and H.sub.0.1 -H.sub.1 <200 .ANG., in which H.sub.0.01, H.sub.0.1 and H.sub.1 are the heights of projections respectively corresponding to 0.01%, 0.1% and 1% of the total number of projections in the descending order of height. A magnetic recording medium comprises a magnetic recording layer formed by a thin film deposition process on a substrate containing inorganic particles dispersed therein, wherein said substrate is provided, on the surface thereof, with small projections with a density of 10.sup.5 and 10.sup.8 projections/mm.sup.2, wherein said inorganic particles are mostly dispersed to the level of primary particles, and wherein the distribution of the heights of projections on the surface of the substrate satisfies following relations: ##EQU1## in which d is the average particle size of the inorganic particles; .sigma. is the deviation in said particle size; and H.sub.0.01, H.sub.0.1 and H.sub.1 are the heights of projections respectively corresponding to 0.01%, 0.1% and 1% of the total number of projections in the descending order of height.
A magnetic recording medium comprising a substrate composed of a polyamide film containing inorganic particles dispersed therein and bearing, on a face thereof, a polyimide coated layer containing inorganic articles dispersed therein, and a magnetic recording layer formed on the other face of said polyimide film, wherein the average particle size of the inorganic particles dispersed in said polyimide film is less than that of the inorganic particles dispersed in said polyimide coated layer and said polyimide film containing the inorganic particles dispersed therein has a surface coarseness representing by a 10-point averaged coarseness in a range from 100 to 60 A and a projection density in a range from 10.sup.5 to 10.sup.8 projections/mm.sup.2, and said polyimide coated layer containing the inorganic particles dispersed therein has a surface coarseness represented by a 10-point-averaged coarseness in a range from 0.05 to 0.5 .mu.m and a projection density at least equal to 10.sup.4 projections/mm.sup.2.
A magnetic recording medium compressing a magnetic recording layer formed by a thin film deposition process on a polyimide, polyamide, polyimidamide, polyetherimide or polysulfon substrate, wherein said substrate is provided, on a surface thereof, with small projections at a density of 10.sup.5 to 10.sup.8 projections/mm.sup.2, the statistical distribution of the heights of said projections satisfying the following relations:
