MAGNETIC RECORDING MEDIUM

摘要

A magnetic recording medium having high running stability and good magnetic characteristics without causing any abrasion problem, which comprises a base film, a magnetic layer provided on one surface (i.e. the major surface) of the base film and a back coat layer provided on the other surface (i.e. the back surface) of the base film, the back coat layer comprising a binder and non-magnetic particles dispersed therein, characterized in that the non-magnetic particles comprise at least one soft inorganic pigment of less than 5 in Mohs' scale of hardness and at least one hard inorganic pigment of not less than 5 in Mohs' sacle of hardness and of not more than 0.2 mu m in average particle size in a weight ratio of 99 : 1 to 50 : 50.
