Abstract:
Ferromagnetic particles are dispersed for use in magnetic coatings by a novel dispersing agent containing either silylated alkylene oxide copolyethers or isocyanatoalkyl silanes in combination with phosphate esters.
Abstract:
A hermetically encapsulated magnetic record member is produced by applying a liquid mixture containing one or more organometallic compounds, an organic solvent and magnetic particles to a thermally stable substrate, e.g. of silicon. The applied mixture is then heated to melt the glass in the organometallic compound so that upon cooling of the glass, the magnetic particles are encapsulated therein.
Abstract:
Disclosed is a magnetic recording medium which comprises; a substrate; a first magnetic layer applied on the surface of the substrate and having an easy axis of magnetization in the in-plane direction of the substrate; and a second magnetic layer applied on the surface of the first magnetic layer, formed of ferrite series powder represented by the formula: (wherein A is at least one metallic element selected from the group consisting of Ba, Sr, Pb and Ca; M is at least one substituent component selected from the group consisting of CO, Ti, Ni, Mn, Cu, Zn, In, Ge and Nb; m is 0.08 to 0.2; and n is 5.4 to 6.01, and having an easy axis of magnetization in a direction perpendicular to the plane of the substrate; said first magnetic layer having a surface resistivity of 1 × 10 2 to 1 x 10 8 Ω. In another embodiment, a conductive layer having a surface resistivity of 1 x 10 7 Ω or smaller may be interposed between the substrate and the first magnetic layer.
Abstract:
@ Intermittent contacts between a flying transducer head and a magnetic record medium are monitored by detecting (Fig. 1A) triboelectric charges generated by such contacts. Different amounts and polarities of triboelectric charge are generated by different materials on the surface of the record medium. The flight of the head when it is out of contact with the record medium can be monitored by detecting (Fig. 2A) variations in the displacement current generated as the head flies over the record medium.
Abstract:
A biaxially oriented film of a film-forming aromatic polyester derived from an aromatic dicarboxylic acid as a main acid component and an aliphatic glycol as a main glycol component, said film having surface properties such that (1) it has a surface flatness, R CLA , of from 0.001 to 0.016 micrometer, (2) it has a coefficient of travelling friction, µk, of from 0.01 to 0.20, and (3) the following relation is established between R CLA and µk, Preferably, said film has many minute protrusions on its surface which are attributed to fine particles of titanium dioxide or of both titanium dioxide and calcium carbonate, and has such further surface property that a distribution curve showing the relation between the heights x in micrometers of said many protrusions on the film surface and the number y of the protrusions having the height x per mm 2 does not cross a straight line represented by equation (1) within the range of log10y> 1.
Abstract:
