Abstract
The average major-axis length (L) of a ferromagnetic alloy powder primarily contained together with a binder in a magnetic layer provided on at least one surface of a non-magnetic support is less than 0.10 μm, and the ferromagnetic alloy powder contains Co at a content of 15 to 28 at % relative to Fe, and furthermore, contains Y at a content of 22 μmol/m2 or more with respect to a specific surface area (Sc) calculated from the above-mentioned average major-axis length (L) and the crystallite diameter (d). A coating-type high-recording-density magnetic recording medium has excellent surface properties, an excellent electromagnetic transducing characteristic especially in short wavelength regions and high reliability.
