Abstract

Abstract A method of producing a magnetic recording tape comprising the steps of providing a back layer on the back surface of the magnetic tape having a magnetic layer on the surface of a base thereof, said back layer being able to absorb the surface roughness of a roller, and calendering said tape through a space between a metal roller and a nonmetal roller, said nonmetal roller being in contact with said back layer side of said tape.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 14
Claim 1
Independent Claim 88 words
A METHOD OF PRODUCING A MAGNETIC RECORDING TAPE HAVING A SMOOTH SURFACE COMPRISING THE STEPS OF PROVIDING A BACK LAYER ON THE BACK SURFACE OF THE MAGMETIC TAPE HAVING A MAGNETIC LAYER ON THE SURFACE OF A BASE THEREOF, SAID BACK LAYER BEING ABLE TO ABSORB THE SURFACE ROUGHNESS OF A ROLLER, AND CALENDERING SAID TAPE THROUGH A SPACE BETWEEN A METAL ROLLER AND A NONMETAL ROLLER, SAID NOMETAL ROLLER BEING IN CONTACT WITH SAID BACK LAYER SIDE OF SAID TAPE WHEREBY SAID TAPE POSSESSES IMPROVED MAGNETIC PROPERTIES.
Claim 2
Independent Claim 88 words
A METHOD OF PRODUCING A MAGNETIC RECORDING TAPE HAVING A SMOOTH SURFACE COMPRISING THE STEPS OF PROVIDING A BACK LAYER ON THE BACK SURFACE OF THE MAGMETIC TAPE HAVING A MAGNETIC LAYER ON THE SURFACE OF A BASE THEREOF, SAID BACK LAYER BEING ABLE TO ABSORB THE SURFACE ROUGHNESS OF A ROLLER, AND CALENDERING SAID TAPE THROUGH A SPACE BETWEEN A METAL ROLLER AND A NONMETAL ROLLER, SAID NOMETAL ROLLER BEING IN CONTACT WITH SAID BACK LAYER SIDE OF SAID TAPE WHEREBY SAID TAPE POSSESSES IMPROVED MAGNETIC PROPERTIES.
