Abstract

Abstract The present invention relates to a magnetic recording medium excellent in S/N ratio and abrasion resistance, which comprises a non-magnetic support and a magnetic recording layer coated thereon, consisting of a ferromagnetic fine powder and a binder, in which the binder contains (1) nitrocellulose having an average polymerization degree of 50 to 300 and a nitrification degree of 10.7 to 13 and (2) a polyurethane resin having a number average molecular weight of 40,000 to 100,000, obtained from diphenylmethane diisocyanate and a mixture of polyneopentyl adipate having an average molecular weight of 800 to 2000 and polybutylene adipate having an average molecular weight of 800 to 2000 in a mixing proportion by weight of 2/8 to 9/1.
