Abstract
In a magnetic recording medium having a layer of a perfluoroalkylpolyether-based liquid lubricant as an uppermost layer, the liquid lubricant has an atomic group including an aromatic ring at a terminal end of a perfluoropolyether main chain, and is coated on an inorganic oxide. Therefore, adhesion force of the lubricant is greatly improved, and interaction within the lubricant can be decreased, thus realizing a magnetic recording medium having excellent lubricity and wear resistance.
