Patent ID: 11423937

Abstract:
There are provided: an aluminum alloy substrate for a magnetic disk, the aluminum alloy substrate including an aluminum alloy including 0.4 to 3.0 mass % (hereinafter, “%”) of Fe, less than 0.10% of Si, less than 0.10% of Mg, and the balance of Al and unavoidable impurities, in which an Al—Fe-based intermetallic compound having a longest diameter of 2 μm or more and less than 3 μm is dispersed at a distribution density of 1000 particles/mm2 or more, and a Mg—Si-based intermetallic compound having a longest diameter of 1 μm or more is dispersed at a distribution density of 1 particle/mm2 or less; a method for producing the same; and a magnetic disk in which an electroless Ni—P plating treatment layer and a magnetic layer thereon are disposed on a surface of the aluminum alloy substrate for a magnetic disk.
