Magnetic powder coated with a copolymer of polyoxyethylene allyl methyl diether and maleic anhydride

摘要

A magnetic powder treated with a coating agent, wherein the surface of the magnetic powder is coated with an alternating copolymer comprising a polyoxyethylene allyl methyl diether and maleic anhydride. An aqueous coating material containing the magnetic powder and a magnetic recording medium prepared by use of the magnetic powder. The magnetic powder of the present invention has a good dispersibility. The aqueous coating material containing the magnetic powder allows for coating under a simple and safe environment. Also the magnetic recording medium prepared by the use of magnetic powder exhibits excellent magnetic characteristics.
