Patent ID: 10403319

Abstract:
The magnetic tape includes a nonmagnetic layer containing nonmagnetic powder and binder on a nonmagnetic support, and a magnetic layer containing ferromagnetic powder, abrasive, and binder on the nonmagnetic layer, wherein a thickness of the nonmagnetic layer is less than or equal to 0.50 μm, a coefficient of friction as measured on a base portion of a surface of the magnetic layer is less than or equal to 0.35, and ΔSFD in a longitudinal direction of the magnetic tape as calculated with Equation 1, ΔSFD=SFD25° C.−SFD−190° C., is greater than or equal to 0.50, wherein, in Equation 1, SFD25° C. denotes a SFD as measured in the longitudinal direction of the magnetic tape in an environment with a temperature of 25° C., and SFD−190° C. denotes a SFD as measured in the longitudinal direction of the magnetic tape in an environment with a temperature of −190° C.
