Abstract
Abstract A resin for magnetic coating, which is a copolymer composed of (1) at least 60% by weight of vinyl chloride units, (2) 0.3 to 5.0% by weight, as the carboxyl group, of monomer units containing a carboxyl group, (3) 0.1 to 2.0% by weight, as the hydroxyl group, of monomer units containing the group --X--OH wherein X is an organic group, and (4) up to 20% by weight of units of another monomer, the equivalent ratio of the hydroxyl groups to the carboxyl groups being from 0.1 to 3.0.
