Abstract

A recording medium includes a magnetic material and a pulp-fiber, a minimum value of shortest distances between the magnetic material and an edge of the recording medium substantially parallel to the pulp-fiber orientation direction being about 1 mm or more.

Claims (19)

1. A recording medium, comprising:

a magnetic material and a pulp-fiber, wherein

the magnetic material is disposed within the pulp-fiber and

a minimum value of shortest distances between the magnetic material and an edge of the recording medium substantially parallel to a pulp-fiber orientation direction of the pulp-fiber being about 1 mm or more,

wherein the pulp-fiber orientation direction is a sheet forming wire traveling direction.

2. The recording medium according to claim 1 , wherein the magnetic material is not substantially exposed at a surface of the recording medium.

3. The recording medium according to claim 1 , wherein the minimum value of shortest distances between a surface of the recording medium and the magnetic material is about 5 μm or more.

4. The recording medium according to claim 1 , wherein the minimum value of shortest distances between a surface of the recording medium and the magnetic material is about 8 μm or more.

5. The recording medium according to claim 1 , wherein the magnetic material has a Large Barkhausen Effect.

6. The recording medium according to claim 5 , wherein the magnetic material is a linear material with a circular cross-section having a length in a range of about 10 to about 350 mm and a diameter in a range of from about 20 to about 60 μm.

7. The recording medium according to claim 6 , wherein the magnetic material is a linear material having a diameter in a range of from about 20 to about 50 μm.

8. The recording medium according to claim 5 , wherein the magnetic material is a belt-shaped material.

9. The recording medium according to claim 1 , wherein the magnetic material has a Fe—Co—Si-based amorphous magnetic material as its basic component.

10. The recording medium according to claim 1 , wherein the magnetic material has a Co—Fe—Ni-based amorphous magnetic material as its basic component.

11. The recording medium according to claim 1 , comprising two or more layers.

12. The recording medium according to claim 1 , comprising two or more layers of the pulp-fiber, wherein the magnetic material is placed at an interface between the layers.

13. The recording medium according to claim 1 , comprising a paper substrate of three or more layers of the pulp-fiber, wherein the magnetic material is contained in a layer other than an outermost layer, or is contained between the layers, of the paper substrate.

14. The recording medium according to claim 1 , wherein the ratio of the ultrasonic propagation velocity in a pulp-fiber orientation direction to the ultrasonic propagation velocity in a direction perpendicular to the pulp-fiber orientation direction (ultrasonic propagation velocity in the pulp-fiber orientation direction /ultrasonic propagation velocity in the direction perpendicular to the pulp-fiber orientation direction) is about 1.1 or more.

15. The recording medium according to claim 1 , wherein the pulp-fiber is impregnated or thermally fused with a synthetic resin selected from the group consisting of polyethylene, polypropylene, polystyrene, polyvinyl chloride, polyester.
