Abstract

Abstract A magnetic recording medium with a greatly reduced coefficient of friction comprising a non-magnetic support having thereon a magnetic recording layer comprising finely divided ferromagnetic powders in a binder, wherein (1) at least one alkylpolysiloxane having a hydrophilic group in the side chain thereof and represented by the formula (I) ##STR1## wherein R 1 and R 2 , which may be the same or different, each represents ##STR2## provided that R 1 and R 2 are not simultaneously --CH 3 ; R 3 represents --CH 3 or the aliphatic chain having 10 to 18 carbon atoms of a saturated or unsaturated fatty acid; R 4 represents --H or --CH 3 ; Z represents an ionic group, which renders the alkylpolysiloxane water-soluble, selected from the group consisting of --OSO 3 Na, --COOR 5 wherein R 5 is H, Na or K, and ##STR3## X REPRESENTS A NUMBER OF FROM 3 TO 50; Y REPRESENTS A NUMBER OF FROM 2 TO 50; Z REPRESENTS 0 OR A NUMBER OF FROM 1 TO 10; X+Y+Z IS A NUMBER OF FROM 5 TO 100; N IS 0 OR A NUMBER OF FROM 1 TO 5; P IS 0 OR A NUMBER OF FROM 1 TO 50; AND Q IS 0 OR A NUMBER OF FROM 1 TO 50; IS PRESENT IN THE MAGNETIC RECORDING LAYER IN AN AMOUNT OF ABOUT 5 WT% OR LESS BASED ON THE WEIGHT OF THE FERROMAGNETIC POWDERS AND (2) the magnetic layer has a Young's modulus of at least 1×10 10 dyne/cm 2 .
