Abstract

Abstract A magnetic recording medium comprising a non-magnetic base which is dimensionally stable at up to 300 DEG C., and an 0.03-0.4 mu m thick magnetically hard recording layer of an Sm-Co alloy, vacuum-deposited thereon, which layer possesses uniaxial magnetic anisotropy in the plane of the layer, and a process for the manufacture of this recording medium.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 3
Claim 1
Independent Claim 80 words
A magnetic recording medium comprising a non-magnetic base which is dimensionally stable at up to 300° C., and an 0.03 to 0.4 μm thick, magnetically hard amorphous recording layer of an Sm-Co alloy, wherein the recording layer consists of an amorphous Sm-Co x alloy, where x is from 1 to 20, possesses uniaxial magnetic anisotropy in the plane of the layer and has a coercive force of from 10 to 100 kA/m and a squareness ratio of more than 0.9.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 80 words
A magnetic recording medium comprising a non-magnetic base which is dimensionally stable at up to 300° C., and an 0.03 to 0.4 μm thick, magnetically hard amorphous recording layer of an Sm-Co alloy, wherein the recording layer consists of an amorphous Sm-Co x alloy, where x is from 1 to 20, possesses uniaxial magnetic anisotropy in the plane of the layer and has a coercive force of from 10 to 100 kA/m and a squareness ratio of more than 0.9.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 20 words
A magnetic recording medium as set forth in claim 1, wherein the base is an aluminum or aluminum alloy disk.
