Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The magnetic recording medium includes a non-magnetic support; and a magnetic layer including a ferromagnetic powder and a binding agent on the non-magnetic support, in which a center line average surface roughness Ra measured regarding a surface of the magnetic layer is 1.0 nm to 1.6 nm, and a difference (S after −S before ) between a spacing S after measured by optical interferometry regarding the surface of the magnetic layer after ethanol cleaning and a spacing S before measured by optical interferometry regarding the surface of the magnetic layer before ethanol cleaning is greater than 0 nm and equal to or smaller than 6.0 nm.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A magnetic recording medium comprising: a non-magnetic support; and a magnetic layer including a ferromagnetic powder and a binding agent on the non-magnetic support, wherein a center line average surface roughness Ra measured regarding a surface of the magnetic layer is 1.0 nm to 1.6 nm, and a difference S after −S before between a spacing S after measured by optical interferometry regarding the surface of the magnetic layer after ethanol cleaning and a spacing S before measured by optical interferometry regarding the surface of the magnetic layer before ethanol cleaning is greater than 0 nm and equal to or smaller than 6.0 nm. 2. The magnetic recording medium according to claim 1 , wherein the difference S after −S before is 1.0 nm to 6.0 nm. 3. The magnetic recording medium according to claim 1 , wherein the difference S after −S before is 2.0 nm to 5.0 nm. 4. The magnetic recording medium according to claim 1 , further comprising: a non-magnetic layer including a non-magnetic powder and a binding agent between the non-magnetic support and the magnetic layer. 5. The magnetic recording medium according to claim 1 , further comprising: a back coating layer including a non-magnetic powder and a binding agent on a surface of the non-magnetic support opposite to a surface provided with the magnetic layer. 6. The magnetic recording medium according to claim 1 , which is a magnetic tape. 7. A magnetic recording and reproducing device comprising: a magnetic recording medium; and a magnetic head, wherein the magnetic recording medium is a magnetic recording medium comprising: a non-magnetic support; and a magnetic layer including a ferromagnetic powder and a binding agent on the non-magnetic support, wherein a center line average surface roughness Ra measured regarding a surface of the magnetic layer is 1.0 nm to 1.6 nm, and a difference S after −S before between a spacing S after measured by optical interferometry regarding the surface of the magnetic layer after ethanol cleaning and a spacing S before measured by optical interferometry regarding the surface of the magnetic layer before ethanol cleaning is greater than 0 nm and equal to or smaller than 6.0 nm. 8. The magnetic recording and reproducing device according to claim 7 , wherein the difference S after −S before is 1.0 nm to 6.0 nm. 9. The magnetic recording and reproducing device according to claim 7 , wherein the difference S after −S before is 2.0 nm to 5.0 nm. 10. The magnetic recording and reproducing device according to claim 7 , wherein the magnetic recording medium further comprises a non-magnetic layer including a non-magnetic powder and a binding agent between the non-magnetic support and the magnetic layer. 11. The magnetic recording and reproducing device according to claim 7 , wherein the magnetic recording medium further comprises a back coating layer including a non-magnetic powder and a binding agent on a surface of the non-magnetic support opposite to a surface provided with the magnetic layer. 12. The magnetic recording and reproducing device according to claim 7 , wherein the magnetic recording medium is a magnetic tape.
