Abstract

Abstract Improved magnetic media comprising a non-magnetic substrate and a magnetic layer formed on at least one side of the substrate. The magnetic recording media are provided in a variety of ways with a specific type of organosilane compound serving as a lubricant and represented by the following general formula: <IMAGE> where R is a saturated or unsaturated monovalent hydrocarbon residue having from 7 to 21 carbon atoms, n is 0, 1 or 2, and p is an integer from 1 to 12. The organosilane lubricant compound may be incorporated in the magnetic layer itself, in a back coating layer, or it may constitute a layer on the magnetic layer or on the back coating layer.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 12
Claim 1
Independent Claim 74 words
A magnetic recording medium comprising a non-magnetic substrate and a magnetic layer formed on at least one side of said non-magnetic substrate, said medium being lubricated by the presence of an effective amount of an organosilane compound represented by the formula: ##STR9## wherein R represents a saturated or unsaturated monovalent hydrocarbon residue having from 7 to 21 carbon atoms, n is 0, 1 or 2, and p is an integer from 1 to 12.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 74 words
A magnetic recording medium comprising a non-magnetic substrate and a magnetic layer formed on at least one side of said non-magnetic substrate, said medium being lubricated by the presence of an effective amount of an organosilane compound represented by the formula: ##STR9## wherein R represents a saturated or unsaturated monovalent hydrocarbon residue having from 7 to 21 carbon atoms, n is 0, 1 or 2, and p is an integer from 1 to 12.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 21 words
A magnetic recording medium according to claim 1 wherein said magnetic layer consists essentially of a magnetic powder and a binder.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 18 words
A magnetic recording medium according to claim 2 wherein said organosilane compound is incorporated in said magnetic layer.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 33 words
A magnetic recording medium according to claim 2 wherein said organosilane compound is present in an amount of 0.5 to 7 parts by weight per 100 parts by weight of said magnetic powder.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 21 words
