Magnetic recording medium comprising two magnetic layers of hexagonal ferrite magnetic particles and binder wherein the easy axes of the particle is specified

摘要

A magnetic recording medium includes a coated type of magnetic layer containing magnetic powders substantially made up of hexagonal ferrite particles and a binder, and has the values ofPP SQR.sub.x . gtoreq.0.50PPSQR.sub.y ≦0.35P P where SQR.sub.x is the squareness ratio of said magnetic layer in the recording track direction, and SQR.sub.y is the intra-surface squareness ratio of said magnetic layer in the direction perpendicular to the recording track direction, and has also the value ofPP . alpha.≧3%PPwhere &agr; is given byP P &agr;=I(006)×100/I(%)PPwhere I is the peak intensities, I(hkl), of the (hkl) planes of said magnetic layer upon X- ray diffraction, defined byPPI=I(006)+I(110)+I(107)+I(114)
