Abstract
A magnetic recording medium comprising an undercoat layer formed on one side or both sides of a non-magnetic substrate and a magnetic layer formed on the undercoat layer, characterized in that the undercoat layer contains powders having an average particle size of 0.5 to 5.0 .mu.m and an aspect ratio of 5.0 or more and a magnetic recording medium comprising a magnetic layer formed on a non-magnetic substrate, characterized in that the non-magnetic substrate contains powders having an average particle size of 0.5 to 5.0 .mu.m and an aspect ratio of 5.0 or more.
Claims2
A magnetic recording medium comprising an undercoat layer formed on at least one side of a non-magnetic substrate and a magnetic layer formed on the undercoat layer, characterized in that said undercoat layer contains plate-shaped powders having an average plate size of 0.5 to 5.0 .mu.m and an aspect ratio of 5.0 or more, wherein said aspect ratio is defined as the average plate size of the plate-shaped powders divided by the thickness thereof, said average plate size being defined diametrically across the plate-shaped powders, said non-magnetic substrate being comprised of polyethylene naphthalate or aramid, and said plate-shaped powders being selected from the group consisting of Al.sub.2 O.sub.3, mica, .alpha.-Fe.sub.2 O.sub.3, Ba--Fe, MoO.sub.3, CdO, ZnO, CrO.sub.3, PbO.sub.3, Co(OH).sub.2, Pb(OH).sub.4, CaWO.sub.4, CaCu.sub.4 ClO, AgBr, BaSO.sub.4, PbI.sub.2, MgCO.sub.3 and kaolinite.
