MAGNETIC RECORDING MEDIUM HAVING A MAGNETIC LAYER CONTAINING CHROMIUM DIOXIDE PARTICLES AND LINOLENIC ACID

摘要

Magnetic recording media consisting of a nonmagnetic substrate and at least one magnetizable layer which is firmly applied thereon and is based on a magnetic material which essentially consists of ferromagnetic chromium dioxide and is finely dispersed in a polymer binder and further conventional additives are distinguished by a particular stability to the chemical decomposition due to moisture and oxidizable compounds and hence particular stability to the deterioration in the magnetic properties, as a result of the addition of from 0.1 to 8% by weight, based on the amount of chromium dioxide, of a monomeric, polyunsaturated, organic compound to the magnetic layer.
