Rigid magnetic recording media.

摘要

® A rigid magnetic storage media coating composition using a high concentration of magnetic particles includes a dual thermoset binder system. The two polymers forming the dual binder system cure during mutually exclusive temperature ranges to form polymer networks that are interpenetrated and entangled. The thermoset polyurethane-melamine/ polyester polymer binder system possesses improved properties including the ability to retain liquid fluorinated polyether lubricant without spin-off. The addition of a small amount of silicone wax to the uncured coating composition enhances composition rheology during spin coating on a rigid substrate.
