Magnetic recording disc and method of making same
First Claim
1. A method of producing a magnetic recording disc comprising applying a magnetic layer containing magnetic particles on a support film base, orienting the magnetic particles in a number of first strip-like zones in a first direction and in a number of second strip-like zones in a second direction inclined with respect to the first direction at an angle of 60°
- to 120°
, said first and second strip-like zones being alternately and contiguously arranged in parallel to each other, the width of each said first and second strip-like zones being not more than 5 mm and the ratio of the width of the first strip-like zone to that of the second strip-like zone being within the range of 1;
3 to 3;
1, solidifying the magnetic layer after the magnetic particles in said first strip-like zones, causing interaction along the boundaries between adjacent strip-like zones resulting in a random particle orientation and then stamping out a magnetic recording disc from the support film base, whereby positioning of a disc center hole is greatly fascilitated and the output is enhenced.

Abstract
In a method of making a magnetic recording sheet, a magnetic material is applied on a web in a layer consisting of a number of contiguous first strip-like zones and second strip-like zones which are alternately arranged in parallel to each other. The ratio of the width of the first strip-like zone to that of the second strip-like zone is within a range of 1:3 to 3:1. In the first strip-like zones having a width of not more than 5 mm the magnetic particles are oriented in a first direction, and in the second strip-like zones magnetic particles are oriented in a second direction which is inclined with respect to the first direction at an angle from 60° to 120°. With this particular orientation of the magnetic particles in the magnetic layer when the magnetic layer is applied on a web, the orientation of the magnetic particles become almost random while the magnetic layer is hardened. The magnetic recording disc thus prepared has a very low output fluctuation and a higher output level.
