MAGNETIC TAPE HAVING CHARACTERIZED MAGNETIC LAYER SURFACE, MAGNETIC TAPE CARTRIDGE, AND MAGNETIC TAPE DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240105228 titled 'MAGNETIC TAPE HAVING CHARACTERIZED MAGNETIC LAYER SURFACE, MAGNETIC TAPE CARTRIDGE, AND MAGNETIC TAPE DEVICE

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a magnetic tape with specific characteristics in terms of C-H derived C concentration and frictional force on the surface of the magnetic layer.

  • The C-H derived C concentration calculated from C-H peak surface area ratio in C1s spectra obtained by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy is between 45 atom % to 65 atom %.
  • The frictional force on the surface of the magnetic layer with respect to an LTO8 head, measured at a head tilt angle of 45°, is between 4 gf to 15 gf, with a standard deviation of 10 gf or less at various head tilt angles.
      1. Potential Applications
