Abstract
A lubricant for a magnetic recording medium that imparts resistance to degradation, improved lubrication quality and better CSS durability to the medium, even when using a low levitating head. The lubricant is a perfluoropolyether compound having a cyclic triphosphazene end group within the molecule. A magnetic recording medium using at least one perfluoropolyether compound having a cyclic triphosphazene end group within the molecule as a lubricant. A method of making a magnetic recording medium which resists degradation when using a low levitation head including the sequential steps of: forming a foundation layer on a non-magnetic base, forming a magnetic layer on the foundation layer, forming a protection layer on the magnetic layer, and forming a lubrication layer on the protection layer. The lubrication layer includes at least one perfluoropolyether lubricant having a cyclic triphosphazene end group within the molecule.
