Abstract

When an abrasive having an oleophilic surface intended for use in magnetic recording media, said abrasive being obtained by subjecting an inorganic powder material having a Mohs hardness of 5 or above and an average particle size of 2 .mu.m or below to a wet contact treatment with an aqueous solution or an organic solvent solution containing a dispersing agent having an oleophilic group and drying the treated powder material, is used together with a magnetic powder material in the magnetic recording layer of a magnetic recording medium, the wear of the magnetic head can be prevented and the still characteristics of the recording medium is improved.
