  • Patent number: 5330669
    Abstract: A polyurethane resin is synthesized from a reaction mixture of at least one phosphorus compound, an epoxy compound, a polyisocyanate, a polyfunctional hydroxy compound, and optionally a chain extender. The polyurethane resin contains one phosphoric acid group or one residual group derived from phosphoric acid per 3,000 to about 200,000 number average molecular weight of the polyurethane resin. The weight average molecular weight of the polyurethane resin is from about 10,000 to about 250,000. A magnetic coating formulation is comprised of principally of magnetic particles and a binder. A magnetic recording media comprises a laminate as in the form of a magnetic layer composed principally of magnetic particles and a binder wherein at least a portion of the binder is the polyurethane resin. The substrate of the magnetic recording medium is a suitable polymer such as polyester, and the like.

  • Patent number: 5162162
    Abstract: A magnetic coating formulation is composed principally of magnetic particles and a binder. At least a portion of the binder is a polyurethane resin synthesized from a reactant mixture of specific phosphorus compound, epoxy compound, isocyanate compound and polyfunctional hydroxy compounds. The reactant mixture may optionally contain a chain extender. The polyurethane resin contains one phosphoric acid group or one residual group derived from phosphoric acid per 3,000-200,000 number average molecular weight of the polyurethane resin, and has a number average molecular weight of 4,000-150,000. A magnetic recording medium with a magnetic coating layer formed from the magnetic coating formulation is also disclosed. The magnetic coating layer features not only excellent dispersion of magnetic particles, in other words, excellent magnetic characteristics but also superb durability.

  • Patent number: 5142001
    Abstract: This invention pertains to the polyurethane composition with hydrophilicity and hydrolysis resistance. The purpose of this invention is achieved by:1) A polyurethane molecule containing at least one acidic hydrophilic group in the molecule which is neutralized with piperidine derivatives and piperazinone derivatives, or2) A mixture containing polyurethane and compounds(s) having at least one acidic hydrophilic group which is neutralized with piperidine derivatives and piperazinone derivatives.The invention polyurethane compositions which have excellent hydrolysis resistance and rupture strength are useful for adhesives, paints, and bonding agents for magnetic recording media.
