Abstract

PURPOSE:To decrease the coefft. of friction between a magnetic head and magnetic recording medium by forming a protective layer having plural pieces of fine holes on the surface of a magnetic oxide or ferromagnetic metal film and impregnating a 'Teflon(R)' lubricating agent into the fine holes. CONSTITUTION:The protective layer 3 is formed of, for example, carbon, SiO2, rhodium, etc. by a vacuum deposition method, plating method, sputtering method, coating, spin coating, dipping, etc. on a magnetic recording layer 2. The fine holes 4 are formed on the surface 3a of the protective layer 3 if the protective layer has the nearly amorphous structure and is subjected to a surface treatment such as anodic oxidation. The 'Teflon(R)' lubricating agent 5 consisting of tetrafluoroethylene or the like is coated on the surface 3a of the protective layer 3 and is impregnated into the fine holes 4 of the protective layer 3. Friction and wear are decreased and lubricity is improved by making combination use of the solid lubricating agent consisting of the film of carbon, SiO2, rhodium, etc. and the 'Teflon(R)' liquid lubricating agent for the protective layer 3 in the above-mentioned manner.

3 is a protective layer 3, and this protective layer 3 has a thickness of several tens of angstroms to several hundred angstroms formed on the magnetic recording layer N2 by vacuum evaporation, plating, sputtering, coating, spin coating, dipping, etc. For example, it is made of carbon, 5in2, rhodium, etc. 4
are a plurality of micro holes formed on the surface 3a of the protective layer 3, and the micro holes 4 are formed by the fact that the protective layer 3 has a structure close to amorphous, and if the surface treatment method of anodic oxidation is applied. This forms micropores 4 on the surface 3a of the protective layer, and the appropriate size of the micropores 4 is from several angstroms to several tens of micrometers. Note that the protective layer is a thermally poor conductor and has thermal insulation properties.

As described above, in the magnetic recording medium of the present invention, friction and wear are reduced by using a solid lubricant made of a film of carbon, SiO□, rhodium, etc. together with a Teflon-based liquid lubricant in the protective layer 3. Efforts are being made to improve lubricity. For example, tetrafluoroethylene has the advantage of having a dynamic friction coefficient and static friction coefficient of 2 compared to solid lubricants, but has the disadvantage that it easily wears off. In the magnetic recording medium of the present invention, the excellent properties of tetrafluoroethylene can be maintained for a long time by using it in combination with a solid lubricant.
