Claims
- 1. A polyester film for magnetic recording media having excellent flatness, slipperness and ability to retain a magnetic layer applied thereto, said film having minute protrusions on the surface thereof including roughness units each of which consists of a minute protrusion and a recess therearound having a longer diameter of at least 3 .mu.m, wherein the number of said roughness units per square mm, A, (number/1 mm.sup.2), satisfies the relation (1):
- 10<A.ltoreq.1400 (1);
- the proportion of the number of the roughness units to the total number of the protrusions B (%) satisfies the relation (2):
- 5.ltoreq.B.ltoreq.30 (2);
- the center line average roughness R.sub.a (.mu.m) ranges from 0.013 to 0.019 and the number of secondary interference fringes, H.sub.2 (number/1 mm.sup.2), measured by the multiple interference method ranges from 9 to 40; the ratio of the peak value of the (1 1 0) face measured by X-ray diffractometry to the peak value of the (1 0 0) face satisfies the relation (4):
- 0.10.ltoreq.I (1 1 0)/I(1 0 0) .ltoreq.0.21 (4);
- and the difference between the maximum thickness and the minimum thickness R (.mu.m) and the average thickness of the film x (.mu.m) satisfies the relation (5);
- R/x<0.10 (5).
