The Important Role of the Sugar Coating
Magnetic Particles Evenly Encapsulated by the Binder
Sony is proud of its technology that enables each of these nanometer size magnetic particles to be evenly encapsulated by the binder. This technology enhances the characteristics of the data storage tape containing your precious data, providing precise and stable writing and reading of data as well as enabling these characteristics to be maintained for many years.
Point 1. A Multi-Layer Structure Stabilizing Magnetic Particles
Multi-Layer Structuer for Magnetic Particles The use of multiple layers provides the protection that dramatically enhances the ability of the magnetic particles to resist rust (oxidation which decreases the performance of the tape).
Point 2. A Binder of High Thermal Stability
The use of a binder with a high level of thermal stability not only disperses nano-scale magnetic particles individually, but also allows the magnetic layer to have more stability against temperature variation. This realizes stable recording characteristics regardless of high tape temperatures caused by the rubbing of tape inside the tape drive. It also ensures archival stability of the tape.
