  • Patent number: 6358619
    Abstract: The present invention is an aromatic polyamide film, which is a laminated film consisting of at least two layers, comprising an aromatic polyamide and 0.1 wt % to 10 wt % of at least one or more different polymers, being contained at least in the outermost layer (layer A) of the film, subject to the condition that the following formulae are satisfied 0.01≦t/d≦0.5 0.05≦s/L≦1 where d is the thickness of the layer A (&mgr;m); t, the circle equivalent diameter of the isles of the different polymer (&mgr;m); L, the major axis of the isles (&mgr;m); and s, the minor axis of the isles (&mgr;m). The aromatic polyamide film of the present invention is especially useful an a base film of a magnetic recording medium with high productivity since it is free from the wrinkling and weaving caused at the time of film winding and excellent in abrasion resistance on the film surface.

  • Patent number: 5993938
    Abstract: The present invention relates to aromatic polyamide film which is characterized in that on at least one face thereof the number of projections of height at least 20 nm but less than 50 nm is from 10.sup.3 to 10.sup.8 per mm.sup.2, and the number of projections of height at least 50 nm but less than 100 nm is from 0 to 3.times.10.sup.4 per mm.sup.2.Further, the present invention also offers a method of producing an aromatic polyamide film which is characterized in that, in a method of producing aromatic polyamide film from a solution obtained by adding to an aromatic polyamide solution a particle-containing slurry formed by dispersing particles of particle diameter 10 to 300 nm in a liquid medium of 10 poise or less, such that the amount of said particles added in terms of the aromatic polyamide is 0.005 to 4.5 wt %, the relative standard deviation in the diameters of said particles is no more than 0.
