Magnetic recording medium

Abstract

A magnetic recording medium is disclosed, comprising a non-magnetic support having provided thereon at least a lower non-magnetic layer comprising a binder having dispersed therein a non-magnetic powder and an upper magnetic layer comprising a binder having dispersed therein a ferromagnetic powder which has been coated on said lower non-magnetic layer while the lower non-magnetic layer is wet, wherein the upper magnetic layer has an average dry thickness (d) of not more than 1.0 .mu.m and an average thickness variation (.sup..DELTA. d) at the interface between the upper magnetic layer and lower non-magnetic layer is not more than d/2. The magnetic recording medium exhibits excellent electromagnetic characteristics, running properties, and durability.
