Abstract: The present invention concerns a glass-like carbon material which may be bonded to other materials, the carbon material having a high thermal expansion coefficient and being highly applicable for use as a slider part for a recording medium.

Abstract: A substrate for magnetic discs, which are to be used as external storage in data processors, is formed from glass-like carbon materials by themselves or contained in a thermosetting resin matrix. The glass-like carbon materials have excellent thermal resistance, can be finished to a mirror-like surface, and have less surface defects than aluminum substrates. Magnetic materials can be adhered directly onto the surface of such substrates shaped in the form of a disc. The resulting disc has good hardness, is resistant to elevated temperatures, is less likely to deform, and is low in cost.
