Abstract
A magnetic disc comprising a nonmagnetic substrate made of a synthetic resin film and at least one magnetic layer on the surface of the substrate has improved reliability when it having a dimensional shrinkage factor of not more than 0.04% in a radial direction after keeping the magnetic disc at 60.degree. C., 90% RH for 64 hours and then keeping it at room temperature for 72 hours.
Claims6
A flexible magnetic disc comprising a non-magnetic substrate consisting of a polyethylene terephthalate film and at least one magnetic layer which comprises a magnetic powder and a binder comprising a polyurethane resin and a polyisocyanate on at least one surface of said film substrate, which flexible magnetic disc is shrunk after formation of said magnetic layer and before blanking, such that it has a dimensional shrinkage factor of not more than 0.04% in a radial direction measured after said magnetic disc has been first kept at 60.degree. C., and 90% RH for 64 hours and then maintained at room temperature for 72 hours.
A flexible magnetic disc comprising a non-magnetic substrate consisting of a polyethylene terephthalate film and at least one magnetic layer which comprises a magnetic powder and a binder comprising a polyurethane resin and a polyisocyanate painted on at least one surface of said film substrate prepared according to the process of coating said magnetic layer on at least one surface of said polyethylene terephthalate film to produce a magnetic film, heating said magnetic film for at least 10 hours in the absence of tension at a temperature higher than a temperature at which said magnetic disc would be stored thereby thoroughly shrinking said magnetic film, and blanking said film to produce said magnetic disc having a dimensional shrinkage factor of not more than 0.04% in a radial direction measured after said magnetic disc has been first kept at 60.degree. C., and 90% RH for 64 hours and then maintained at room temperature for 72 hours.
A flexible magnetic disc comprising a non-magnetic substrate consisting of a polyethylene terephthalate film and at least one magnetic layer painted on at least one surface of said film substrate prepared according to the process of coating said magnetic layer on at least one surface of said polyethylene terephthalate film to produce a magnetic film, exposing said film to radiation with an electron beam prior to blanking, thereby thoroughly shrinking said magnetic film, and blanking said film to produce said magnetic disc having a dimensional shrinkage factor of not more than 0.04% in a radial direction measured after said magnetic disc has been first kept at 60.degree. C., and 90% RH for 64 hours and then maintained at room temperature for 72 hours.
