Abstract

Abstract A magnetic recording medium comprising a non-magnetic support having a magnetic layer thereon, wherein the surface of the magnetic layer contains (a) a first fluorinated polyether having an oxo acid group or an oxo acid salt group at one or both terminals thereof, and (b) a second fluorinated polyether having a group selected from a alkoxycarbonyl group, an acyloxy group and a hydroxyl group at one or both terminals thereof, or the polyether (a) and polyether (b) are incorporated into the magnetic layer.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 10
Claim 1
Independent Claim 164 words
A magnetic recording medium comprising a nonmagnetic support having a magnetic layer thereon, wherein the surface of said magnetic layer contains (a) a first fluorinated polyether having an oxo acid group or an oxo acid salt group at one or both terminals thereof, and (b) a second fluorinated polyether having a group selected from the group consisting of an alkoxycarbonyl group, an acyloxy group and a hydroxyl group at one or both terminals thereof, and wherein said first fluorinated polyether and said second fluorinated polyether are contained in the surface of said magnetic layer after top coating in a combined amount of 1 to 50 mg/m 2 or said first fluorinated polyether and said second fluorinated polyether are incorporated into said magnetic layer in a combined amount of 0.5 to 10% by weight based on the amount of ferromagnetic powder, and wherein said first fluorinated polyether is mixed with said second fluorinated polyether in a mixing ratio of from 1:100 to 10:1 by weight.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 164 words
A magnetic recording medium comprising a nonmagnetic support having a magnetic layer thereon, wherein the surface of said magnetic layer contains (a) a first fluorinated polyether having an oxo acid group or an oxo acid salt group at one or both terminals thereof, and (b) a second fluorinated polyether having a group selected from the group consisting of an alkoxycarbonyl group, an acyloxy group and a hydroxyl group at one or both terminals thereof, and wherein said first fluorinated polyether and said second fluorinated polyether are contained in the surface of said magnetic layer after top coating in a combined amount of 1 to 50 mg/m 2 or said first fluorinated polyether and said second fluorinated polyether are incorporated into said magnetic layer in a combined amount of 0.5 to 10% by weight based on the amount of ferromagnetic powder, and wherein said first fluorinated polyether is mixed with said second fluorinated polyether in a mixing ratio of from 1:100 to 10:1 by weight.
