Abstract
A magnetic layer containing a magnetic powder whose surface is composed mainly of carbon and/or iron carbide and a binder is provided on a non-magnetic substrate, the magnetic layer further contains an organic dye compound having at least one polar group selected from the group consisting of a hydroxyl group, a carboxylic acid group, a sulfonic acid group and a salt thereof, and the binder contains an amino group and/or an ammonium salt group. Due to the improved dispersibility of a magnetic paint, the magnetic recording medium of the invention is improved in surface morphology, magnetic properties, and electromagnetic properties.
