Abstract
A magnetic recording medium having low friction coefficient and superior in aging characteristics is disclosed. The magnetic recording medium is provided with a lubricant which is strongly bonded to the magnetic recording medium by a bombardment of an electron beam. In one embodiment, the lubricant containing a molecular chain having a lubricating property, and a double bond sensitive to dissociation products such as free radicals are coated on a magnetic layer and then electron beam irradiates the magnetic layer. A radical reaction then occurs causing a covalent bond of the lubricant to the magnetic recording layer.
