Abstract
A method, according to one approach, includes forming an underlayer of a magnetic recording medium. The underlayer includes encapsulated nanoparticles each comprising a magnetic nanoparticle encapsulated by an aromatic polymer, and a polymeric binder binding the encapsulated nanoparticles. A method, according to another approach, includes mixing encapsulated nanoparticles with a polymeric binder and a solvent to form a mixture, the encapsulated nanoparticles each comprising a magnetic nanoparticle encapsulated by an aromatic polymer. The mixture is applied onto a structure. The applied mixture is at least partially dried and cured.
