Abstract
A magnetic recording medium including a non-magnetic substrate, a back coat, a lower layer, and a magnetic upper layer. The substrate defines a front side and back side, with the back coat being formed on the back side. The lower layer is disposed over the front side of the substrate and includes a primary powder material and conductive carbon black material dispersed in a binder. The primary lower layer powder material comprises particles having a coercivity of less than 300 Oe coated with an electroconductive material. The magnetic upper layer is disposed over the lower layer and includes a magnetic powder dispersed in a binder.
