Abstract

Abstract Disclosed is a magnetic recording medium which comprises magnetic particles; a phosphate represented by the formula: ##STR1## wherein R 1 , R 2 and R 3 may be the same or different and each represent R 4 O--CH 2 O-- n (wherein R 4 is an alkyl group having 8 to 20 carbon atoms or an alkylphenyl group whose alkyl group moiety has 8 to 20 carbon atoms, and n is an integer of 2 to 10) or a group of HO--, with the proviso that at least one of R 1 , R 2 and R 3 is a group of R 4 O--CH 2 CH 2 O-- n (wherein R 4 and n are as defined above); a lecithin; and a binder.
