The present invention relates to improvements in compositions for forming protective films on the surfaces of magnetic layers used in videotapes and the like. Magnetic tapes whose magnetic layer is composed only of a ferromagnetic metal or alloy thin film have the disadvantage that the magnetic layer peels off or becomes scratched in a very short period of time when it comes into contact with a high-speed rotating head such as a VTR deck. .
One of the causes of this is the frictional resistance between the tape surface and the head in contact with it. For this reason, conventional measures have been taken to reduce surface friction by coating or depositing a lubricating material on the surface of the magnetic layer. However, these materials have problems in that the decomposition reaction occurs violently due to the thin film formation method, and the conditions for uniform formation are difficult. Furthermore, the formed film itself has low strength and has the disadvantage that it can be gradually scraped off, clogging the head and adversely affecting the input/output characteristics. The present invention eliminates these drawbacks and provides a composition for forming a protective film on a magnetic tape, which has the advantages of good surface lubricity, high strength of the film itself, and only a small thickness. Therefore, the composition for forming a protective film of the present invention is comprised of a mixture of boron oxide and silicon dioxide (SiO 2 ) containing 70% by weight or more of boron oxide (B 2 O 3 ). To form a protective film with such a mixture, 50
It is preferable to use a method of vapor deposition to a thickness of about 300 Å. In this case, if the film thickness is too thick, the film itself will become hard and the frictional resistance will increase, which is not preferable. Therefore, in the case of tapes for VTRs, the thickness is preferably in the range of 50 to 300 Å as mentioned above from the viewpoint of lubricity. The preferred range is 100 to 200.
It is Å. When formed within this thickness range, the dynamic friction coefficient of the protective film is 0.1 to 0.5, which satisfies the value of 0.3 or less required for a VTR tape. Note that it is not preferable to form the protective film with a mixture containing less than 60% by weight of boron oxide because the coefficient of kinetic friction will be large and the film strength will be weak. Next, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail. [Example] Polyethylene terephthalate film (12μ
Thickness) Co is obliquely evaporated onto the magnetic layer using electron beam heating to form a magnetic layer. The degree of vacuum during vapor deposition was 3×10 −5 torr or less, and the thickness of the magnetic layer was 1500 Å. A protective film containing 70 wt% B 2 O 3 (remaining SiO 2 ) and a protective film containing 85 wt % B 2 O 3 were placed on the surface of this magnetic layer at an oxygen partial pressure of 7×.
Vacuum deposition was carried out while introducing oxygen at a pressure of 10 -5 torr. After the obtained vapor-deposited film was slit into a width of 10 mm, the coefficient of dynamic friction of the surface was measured under the conditions of a load of 50 g and a relative speed of 2 m/sec. For comparison, the coefficient of dynamic friction was also measured for a film with only a Co magnetic layer prepared under similar conditions. These results are shown in the table below.

[Table] Next, these samples were slit into VTR tape width, and tested for runnability, recording, and performance using a commercially available VTR deck.
When a playback test was carried out, the tape of the comparative example hardly ran. The tape coated with the composition for forming a protective film of the present invention ran stably and showed no abnormalities even during repeated recording and playback. As explained above, according to the composition for forming a protective film on a magnetic tape of the present invention, the frictional resistance on the tape surface can be reduced and the running properties on a magnetic head can be significantly improved. Since it is an oxide, it has the effect of being chemically and mechanically stable. Also, as in the example, the film thickness was 300Å.
In addition to the above-mentioned effects, the following effect has the effect that the loss of tape reproduction output is reduced, and a magnetic tape with correspondingly better input/output characteristics can be obtained.
