Abstract

The present invention relates to a magnetic recording medium comprising a magnetic layer on at least one side of a nonmagnetic substrate, the magnetic layer containing magnetic particles of a CuAu type or Cu 3 Au type ferromagnetic ordered phase, wherein a conductive layer is provided on at least one side of the nonmagnetic substrate.

Claims (15)

1. A magnetic recording medium comprising a magnetic layer on at least one side of an inorganic nonmagnetic substrate, the magnetic layer containing magnetic particles of a CuAu-type or Cu 3 Au-type ferromagnetic ordered phase produced by a liquid phase method, wherein a conductive layer containing polyvinylbenzene sulfonate, polyvinyl benzyl trimethyl animonium chloride, or a quaternary salt polymer is provided on at least one side of the inorganic nonmagnetic substrate, the conductive layer having a thickness of 10 to 400 nm.

2. The magnetic recording medium according to claim 1 , wherein the thickness of the conductive layer is 20 to 400 nm.

3. A magnetic recording medium comprising a magnetic layer on at least one side of an inorganic nonmagnetic substrate, the magnetic layer containing magnetic particles of a CuAu-type or Cu 3 Au-type ferromagnetic ordered phase produced by a liquid phase method, wherein a conductive layer containing a conductive metal oxide is provided on at least one side of the inorganic nonmagnetic substrate, the conductive layer having a thickness of 10 to 400 nm.

4. The magnetic recording medium according to claim 1 , wherein the conductive layer is disposed between the inorganic nonmagnetic substrate and the magnetic layer.

5. The magnetic recording medium according to claim 1 , wherein the conductive layer is disposed on the inorganic nonmagnetic substrate on a side opposite to the magnetic layer.
