Abstract: An object is to suppress or prevent a dimensional change of a magnetic recording tape. The present technology provides a magnetic recording tape having a layer structure including a magnetic layer, a base layer, and a back layer in this order, in which a reinforcing layer containing a metal or a metal oxide is disposed on either a surface of the base layer on the magnetic layer side or a surface of the base layer on the back layer side, and a black area in an image obtained by binarizing an optical microscope image of a rectangular region of 64 ?m×48 ?m of the reinforcing layer is 300 ?m2 or less.

Abstract: To provide a magnetic recording tape that exhibits excellent tape dimension stability even if there are changes in temperature or humidity or even if tension is applied to the magnetic recording tape during tape travelling. The present technology provides a magnetic recording tape, the tape (T1 or T2) having a total thickness of 5.6 ?m or less and including a magnetic layer 1, a non-magnetic layer 2, a base layer 3, and a back layer 4 in the stated order. In one embodiment, a deposition film layer A formed of a metal or an oxide thereof is provided on a lower-layer side of the non-magnetic layer 2. The deposition film layer A may be provided on the back layer 4 and an insulation layer B may also be provided between the deposition film layer A the non-magnetic layer 2.

Abstract: A magnetic recording medium has a recording surface having an average surface roughness SRa of 3.0 nm or less, the number of projections having a height of 7.5 nm or more included in a unit region (where the unit region is a square region with each side having a length of 30 ?m) of the recording surface is 256 or more, and the number of projections having a height of 15 nm or more included in the unit region of the recording surface is 0 or more and 104 or less.

Abstract: A magnetic recording medium includes a long-shaped base substrate having flexibility, a soft magnetic layer, and a magnetic recording layer. A squareness ratio in a longitudinal direction of the base substrate is equal to or less than a squareness ratio in a short-side direction of the base substrate. The squareness ratio in the longitudinal direction of the base substrate is 30% or less.
