    Abstract: Provided is a hexagonal ferrite magnetic powder for a magnetic recording medium, containing hexagonal ferrite magnetic particles having aluminum hydroxide adhered on the surface thereof, the hexagonal ferrite magnetic powder having an Al/Fe molar ratio of 0.030 to 0.200, a Co/Fe molar ratio of 0.002 to 0.030, and a Nb/Fe molar ratio of 0.005 to 0.050, and having an Fe site valence AFe of 3.015 to 3.040 as calculated by AFe=(3+2×[Co/Fe]+5×[Nb/Fe])/(1+[Co/Fe]+[Nb/Fe]) wherein [Co/Fe] represents the Co/Fe molar ratio and [Nb/Fe] represents the Nb/Fe molar ratio, and preferably having an activation volume Vact of 1400 to 1800 nm3. This magnetic powder simultaneously achieves an increase in magnetic characteristics including SNR of a magnetic recording medium and a further increase in durability thereof.

    Abstract: Provided is an Al-containing hexagonal ferrite magnetic powder which produces an excellent durability-improving effect on a magnetic recording medium, wherein uniform pulverization of the magnetic powder can be easily achieved by dispersion treatment in preparation of a magnetic coating material even in cases where the magnetic powder has a small primary particle size or has a composition which is likely to produce hard secondary particles. The magnetic powder for a magnetic recording medium is an Al-containing hexagonal ferrite magnetic powder having an Al/Fe molar ratio of 0.030 to 0.200, and has a particle size distribution in which the volume ratio of particles having a particle size of 30 μm or more as measured by a laser diffraction particle size distribution analyzer with a dispersion pressure of 100 kPa is 5.0% or less, and an activation volume Vact of 1800 nm3 or less.
