Abstract

Abstract Magnetic recording media, the magnetic coating of which consists of a dispersion of elongated ferromagnetic chromium dioxide particles in an organic binder, the dispersions exhibiting particularly good storage stability. This is achieved by admixing 0.5 to 6% by weight, based on the amount of chromium dioxide pigment, of the zinc salt of an aliphatic carboxylic acid of 8 to 18 carbon atoms, during the manufacture of the chromium dioxide dispersions. Chromium dioxide dispersions with good storage stability and a high degree of orientation of the elongated magnetic particles in the magnetic coating are thus obtained in a simple manner.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 3
Claim 1
Independent Claim 80 words
A magnetic recording media having high orientation ratios which comprises: (a) a polyethylene terephthalate base film; and (b) a magnetic coating on said film, said magnetic coating consisting essentially of elongated ferromagnetic chromium dioxide particles dispersed in a synthetic, organic, polymeric binder, the amount of said binder being about 0.13 to 0.5 parts per part by weight of chromium dioxide, said binder further containing from 0.5 to 6% by weight based on the amount of chromium dioxide of zinc oleate.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 80 words
A magnetic recording media having high orientation ratios which comprises: (a) a polyethylene terephthalate base film; and (b) a magnetic coating on said film, said magnetic coating consisting essentially of elongated ferromagnetic chromium dioxide particles dispersed in a synthetic, organic, polymeric binder, the amount of said binder being about 0.13 to 0.5 parts per part by weight of chromium dioxide, said binder further containing from 0.5 to 6% by weight based on the amount of chromium dioxide of zinc oleate.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 31 words
A magnetic recording media as set forth in claim 1 wherein the amount of zinc oleate is from 1 to 3% by weight based on the weight of said chromium dioxide.
