Abstract :
After describing briefly the principles of magnetic recording and the manufacture of media, the author reviews the history, characteristics, and development trends of the most important particulate magnetic recording materials. These are acicular iron oxides, chromium dioxide, cobalt-modified iron oxides, acicular metal particles, and barium ferrite. A trend common to most of the materials is particle size reduction
