Abstract

Abstract A novel magnetic recording medium consisting of a base material, magnetic particles and a specific polyurethane-based binder containing incorporated sulphonate groups, a process for preparing such a magnetic recording medium which comprises coating a base material with a coating material comprising (i) an organic solvent, (ii) a polyurethane binder containing chemically incorporated sulphonate groups and (iii) magnetic particles and the most preferred binder composition therefor comprising a hexandiol-(1,6)-polycarbonate-based polyurethane.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim 156 words
A binder composition comprising a polyurethane resin obtained by reacting (a) a polyisocyanate component with (b) a polyol component comprising (i) a hexane diol-(1,6)-polycarbonate having terminal hydroxyl groups and having a molecular weight of from 400 to 10,000, (ii) a sulfonate-free diol chain extender which has a molecular weight of from 62 to 399, and (iii) a diol containing chemically bonded sulphonate groups of the formula ##STR2## wherein A and B are the same or different divalent aliphatic hydrocarbon radicals having from 1 to 6 carbon atoms; R is hydrogen, alkyl having from 1 to 4 carbon atoms or phenyl; M is an alkali metal atom; m and n are 0 or an integer up to 30; o and p are 0 or 1, and q is 0, 1 or 2; and wherein the amount of reactant (iii) is an amount such that the resulting polyurethane contains from 10-200 equivalents of sulphonate groups per 1,000 kilograms.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 156 words
A binder composition comprising a polyurethane resin obtained by reacting (a) a polyisocyanate component with (b) a polyol component comprising (i) a hexane diol-(1,6)-polycarbonate having terminal hydroxyl groups and having a molecular weight of from 400 to 10,000, (ii) a sulfonate-free diol chain extender which has a molecular weight of from 62 to 399, and (iii) a diol containing chemically bonded sulphonate groups of the formula ##STR2## wherein A and B are the same or different divalent aliphatic hydrocarbon radicals having from 1 to 6 carbon atoms; R is hydrogen, alkyl having from 1 to 4 carbon atoms or phenyl; M is an alkali metal atom; m and n are 0 or an integer up to 30; o and p are 0 or 1, and q is 0, 1 or 2; and wherein the amount of reactant (iii) is an amount such that the resulting polyurethane contains from 10-200 equivalents of sulphonate groups per 1,000 kilograms.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 29 words
In an improved magnetic recording medium containing a base material, magnetic particles and a binder, the improvement comprises said binder being the binder composition in accordance with claim 1.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 46 words
A process for preparing a magnetic recording medium which comprises coating a base material with a coating material comprising (i) an organic solvent, (II) a polyurethane binder and (III) magnetic particles, characterized in that the polyurethane binder is a binder composition in accordance with claim 1.
