Abstract

Abstract An iron oxide pigment having a coating of a silane of the formula R.sub.n Si(OR').sub.4-n wherein R is an, in some cases, branched or oxygen-bridge-containing alkyl or alkenyl moiety of 1 to 18 carbon atoms, or an aryl moiety, R' is an, in some cases, branched and, in some cases, oxygen-bridge-containing alkyl moiety of 1 to 8, N=1 to 3, Or a hydrolysis product thereof; a magnetic tape containing such coated iron oxide pigment and a process for coating such iron oxide pigment. There is particularly disclosed the treatment of iron oxide magnetic pigments to thereby improve their wear resistance and dispersibility in organic mediums.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 10
Claim 1
Independent Claim 127 words
In a magnetic tape comprising a non-magnetic or non-magnetizable substrate and an adhering iron oxide pigment, the improvement wherein said iron oxide pigment is one which has been pretreated before dispersion thereof in a binding agent with an acid or alkaline solution of a silane of the formula R.sub.n Si(OR').sub.4-n wherein R is a straight or branched alkyl group having 1 to 18 carbon atoms or a straight or branched alkenyl group of 2 to 18 carbon atoms which alkyl or alkenyl group can contain an oxygen atom in the chain or an aryl group R' is a straight or branched chain C 1 -C 18 alkyl group which can contain an oxygen atom in the chain n=1 to 3 or its hydrolysis product and thereafter dried.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 127 words
In a magnetic tape comprising a non-magnetic or non-magnetizable substrate and an adhering iron oxide pigment, the improvement wherein said iron oxide pigment is one which has been pretreated before dispersion thereof in a binding agent with an acid or alkaline solution of a silane of the formula R.sub.n Si(OR').sub.4-n wherein R is a straight or branched alkyl group having 1 to 18 carbon atoms or a straight or branched alkenyl group of 2 to 18 carbon atoms which alkyl or alkenyl group can contain an oxygen atom in the chain or an aryl group R' is a straight or branched chain C 1 -C 18 alkyl group which can contain an oxygen atom in the chain n=1 to 3 or its hydrolysis product and thereafter dried.
