Abstract

Abstract A magnetic recording medium is disclosed. The medium is comprised of a support having a magnetic layer coated thereon. The magnetic layer is comprised of ferromagnetic metal powder and a binder. The ferromagnetic metal powder has a specific surface area of 35 to 70 m 2 /g, a saturation magnetization (σ s ) of 120 to 160 emu/g and a metal content of 75 to 98 wt %. The magnetic recording medium has a high S/N ratio, particularly a high video S/N ratio and has stable magnetic properties.
