Abstract

The magnetic tape has a magnetic layer containing ferromagnetic powder and binder on one surface of a nonmagnetic support and has a backcoat layer containing nonmagnetic powder and binder on the other surface thereof, wherein the thickness of the backcoat layer is less than or equal to 0.20 μm, the contact angle for 1-bromonaphthalene that is measured on the surface of the backcoat layer falls within a range of 10.0° to 30.0°, and the contact angle for 1-bromonaphthalene that is measured on the surface of the magnetic layer falls within a range of 45.0° to 55.0°.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A magnetic tape,
which comprises a magnetic layer comprising ferromagnetic powder and binder on one surface of a nonmagnetic support and comprises a backcoat layer comprising nonmagnetic powder and binder on the other surface of the nonmagnetic support, wherein:
the backcoat layer comprises a polymer containing a polyalkyleneimine chain and a polyester chain;
the thickness of the backcoat layer is less than or equal to 0.20 μm;
the contact angle for 1-bromonaphthalene that is measured on a surface of the backcoat layer falls within a range of 10.0° to 30.0°; and
the contact angle for 1-bromonaphthalene that is measured on a surface of the magnetic layer falls within a range of 45.0° to 55.0°.

2. The magnetic tape according to claim 1 ,
wherein the thickness of the backcoat layer falls within a range of 0.05 μm to 0.20 μm.

3. The magnetic tape according to claim 1 ,
wherein the contact angle for 1-bromonaphthalene that is measured on the surface of the backcoat layer falls within a range of 11.3° to 29.7°.

4. The magnetic tape according to claim 1 ,
wherein the contact angle for 1-bromonaphthalene that is measured on the surface of the magnetic layer falls within a range of 45.2° to 54.2°.

5. The magnetic tape according to claim 1 ,
wherein the contact angle for 1-bromonaphthalene that is measured on the surface of the backcoat layer falls within a range of 11.3° to 29.7°; and
the contact angle for 1-bromonaphthalene that is measured on the surface of the magnetic layer falls within a range of 45.2° to 54.2°.

6. The magnetic tape according to claim 1 ,
wherein the magnetic layer further comprises a nitrogen-containing polymer.

7. The magnetic tape according to claim 6 ,
wherein the nitrogen-containing polymer is a polyalkyleneimine polymer.

8. The magnetic tape according to claim 7 ,
wherein the polyalkyleneimine polymer is a polymer containing a polyalkyleneimine chain and a polyester chain.

9. The magnetic tape according to claim 1 ,
wherein either one of, or both, the backcoat layer and the magnetic layer further comprise one or more lubricants selected from the group consisting of a fatty acid, a fatty acid ester, and a fatty acid amide.

10. The magnetic tape according to claim 1 ,
wherein the contact angle for water that is measured on the surface of the magnetic layer falls within a range of 90.0° to 101.2°.

11. The magnetic tape according to claim 1 ,
wherein the contact angle for water that is measured on the surface of the magnetic layer falls within a range of 96.2° to 101.2°.

12. The magnetic tape according to claim 1 ,
wherein the contact angle for 1-bromonaphthalene that is measured on the surface of the backcoat layer falls within a range of 11.3° to 29.7°;
the contact angle for 1-bromonaphthalene that is measured on the surface of the magnetic layer falls within a range of 45.2° to 54.2°; and
the contact angle for water that is measured on the surface of the magnetic layer falls within a range of 96.2° to 101.2°.

13. The magnetic tape according to claim 1 ,
wherein the nonmagnetic powder contained in the backcoat layer is selected from the group of inorganic powder and carbon black.

14. The magnetic tape according to claim 13 ,
wherein the nonmagnetic powder contained in the backcoat layer comprises at least carbon black.

15. The magnetic tape according to claim 1 ,
which comprises a nonmagnetic layer comprising nonmagnetic powder and binder between the nonmagnetic support and the magnetic layer.
