Hematite particles aggregates, non-magnetic undercoatt layer for magnetic recording medium using the same, and magnetic recording medium having the non-magnetic undercoat layer

摘要

Hematite particles aggregates as non-magnetic particles of the present invention are capable of forming a non-magnetic undercoat layer of a magnetic recording medium having a more excellent surface smoothness, which can exhibit not only an excellent dispersibility but also have an improving ability of a surface smoothness of a coating film produced therefrom by calendering treatment, a non-magnetic undercoat layer for magnetic recording medium which contains the hematite particles aggregates is exhibits a more excellent surface smoothness, and a magnetic recording medium having the non-magnetic undercoat layer, is exhibits a more excellent surface smoothness.
