A magnetic recording medium is disclosed. The recording medium comprises a non-magnetic support and a plurality of magnetic layers being provided on a surface of the support, wherein

Magnetic recording medium

A magnetic recording medium having two magnetic layers is disclosed. The magnetic recording medium has a surface fatty acid content of 0.38 to 2.53 .mu.g per square centimeter and a magnetic layer closest to a support contains ferromagnetic powder of Co-containing FeOx wherein x represents 1.33 to 1.43. It is improved in electromagnetic conversion characteristics, light-shielding property and erasing property, and is suitably used for audio or video recording medium.

A magnetic recording medium is disclosed which is excellent in video and audio signal output as well as in S/N ratio. The recording medium comprises first and second magnetic layers provided on a support in this order from said support and the first magnetic layer has a SFD value of from 0.38 to 0.60 and the second magnetic layer has a SFD value of from 0.30 to 0.45, wherein SFD is defined as follows:

A magnetic recording medium having a non-magnetic support and provided thereon a magnetic layer containing a ferromagnetic ion oxide and a binder, said ferromagnetic iron oxide containing Si and/or Al at a proportion of 0.10 to 0.25% by weight and methods of manufacturing a magnetic recording medium are disclosed.
