Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a fluorine-containing ether compound, a lubricant for a magnetic recording medium, and a magnetic recording medium.

[0002] This application claims priority based on Japanese Patent Application No. 2022-197136 filed in Japan on December 9, 2022, the contents of which are incorporated herein by reference. Background Art

[0003] In order to increase the recording density in a magnetic recording and reproducing device, the development of a magnetic recording medium suitable for high recording density has been progressing.

[0004] In the past, as a magnetic recording medium, a recording layer is formed on a substrate, and a protective layer formed by carbon etc. is formed on the recording layer. The protective layer protects the information recorded in the recording layer and improves the sliding property of the magnetic head. In addition, the protective layer covers the recording layer to prevent the metal contained in the recording layer from being corroded by environmental substances.

[0005] However, only by setting a protective layer on the recording layer, the durability of the magnetic recording medium cannot be fully obtained. Therefore, a lubricant is applied to the surface of the protective layer to form a lubricating layer. The lubricating layer improves the durability and protective power of the protective layer and prevents the intrusion of pollutants into the inside of the magnetic recording medium.

[0006] As a lubricant used when forming a lubricating layer of a magnetic recording medium, a substance containing a compound having a polar group such as a hydroxyl group at the terminal of a fluorine-based polymer having a repeating structure containing -CF2- has been proposed.

[0007] For example, Patent Documents 1, 2, and 3 disclose fluorine-containing ether compounds containing two perfluoropolyether chains in the molecule and having a linking group having a secondary hydroxyl group disposed between the two perfluoroether chains.

[0008] Patent Document 4 discloses a fluorine-containing ether compound including two perfluoropolyether chains in the molecule and a linking group having both a primary hydroxyl group and a secondary hydroxyl group disposed between the two perfluoroether chains.

[0009] Patent Documents 5, 6 and 7 disclose fluorinated ether compounds having a backbone in which three perfluoropolyether chains are linked via a linking group having a secondary hydroxyl group, and terminal groups having polar groups are linked to both sides of the backbone via methylene groups (-CH2-).

[0019] Problems to be solved by the invention

[0020] In a magnetic recording and reproducing device, it is required to further reduce the flying height of the magnetic head. Therefore, it is required to further reduce the thickness of the protective layer and / or lubricating layer in the magnetic recording medium.

[0021] However, generally speaking, if the thickness of the lubricating layer is reduced, the chemical resistance of the magnetic recording medium tends to decrease. In addition, if the floating amount of the magnetic head is reduced, the fluorine-containing ether compound in the lubricating layer may sometimes adhere to the magnetic head and pick up.

[0022] The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and an object of the present invention is to provide a fluorine-containing ether compound which can form a lubricating layer having excellent chemical resistance and capable of suppressing adhesion and can be suitably used as a material for a lubricant for a magnetic recording medium.

[0023] Another object of the present invention is to provide a lubricant for a magnetic recording medium comprising the fluorinated ether compound of the present invention and capable of forming a lubricating layer having excellent chemical resistance and capable of suppressing adhesion.

[0065] Effects of the Invention

[0066] The fluorine-containing ether compound of the present invention is a compound represented by the above formula (1), and is suitable as a material for a lubricant for a magnetic recording medium.

[0067] Since the lubricant for a magnetic recording medium of the present invention contains the fluorinated ether compound of the present invention, it is possible to form a lubricating layer having excellent chemical resistance and a high adhesion suppressing effect.

[0068] The magnetic recording medium of the present invention has a lubricating layer comprising a fluorinated ether compound of the present invention. Therefore, the magnetic recording medium of the present invention has good chemical resistance, high adhesion suppression effect, and excellent reliability and durability. In addition, the magnetic recording medium of the present invention has a lubricating layer that has good chemical resistance and can suppress adhesion, so the thickness of the lubricating layer can be made thin, and the floating amount of the magnetic head can be made small. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0069] Figure 1 This is a schematic cross-sectional view showing one embodiment of the magnetic recording medium of the present invention. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0070] The present inventors have conducted intensive studies to solve the above-mentioned problems as described below.

[0071] In the past, as the material of the magnetic recording medium lubricant (hereinafter, sometimes abbreviated as "lubricant") coated on the surface of the protective layer, a fluorine-containing ether compound with polar groups such as hydroxyl groups was preferably used. The polar group contained in the fluorine-containing ether compound combines with the active point on the protective layer to improve the adhesion of the lubricating layer to the protective layer. For the fluorine-containing ether compound in the past, the terminal in the chain structure is configured with a polar group. In addition, when the fluorine-containing ether compound has a plurality of perfluoropolyether chains, a polar group is also configured between adjacent perfluoropolyether chains.

[0072] However, when a thin lubricating layer is formed on a protective layer using a conventional lubricant, it is difficult to realize a lubricating layer having good resistance to chemical substances and a high adhesion suppressing effect.

[0073] The reason for this is that the fluorine-containing ether compound contained in the lubricating layer contains polar groups which are not adsorbed to active sites present in large numbers on the protective layer.

[0074] If the fluorinated ether compound included in the lubricating layer contains polar groups that are not adsorbed to the active points on the protective layer, the lubricant in the lubricating layer becomes bulky, and the coating state of the lubricating layer on the protective layer becomes uneven. In addition, the surface energy of the fluorinated ether compound molecules as a whole becomes high, and chemical substances are easily attached to the lubricating layer containing the fluorinated ether compound. Based on these circumstances, if the fluorinated ether compound included in the lubricating layer contains a large number of polar groups that are not adsorbed to the active points on the protective layer, the chemical substance resistance and adhesion suppression effect of the lubricating layer are likely to become insufficient.

[0075] Therefore, the present inventors have focused on the bonding between the polar groups contained in the fluorinated ether compound and the active sites on the protective layer, and have conducted intensive studies to realize a fluorinated ether compound that is less likely to produce polar groups that are not involved in bonding with the active sites on the protective layer.

[0076] As a result, the present inventors have come to the following understanding: Among the polar groups contained in the fluorinated ether compound, the secondary hydroxyl group contained in the divalent linking group disposed between adjacent perfluoropolyether chains is particularly unlikely to participate in the bonding with the active point on the protective layer. That is, the fluorinated ether compound having a divalent linking group containing a secondary hydroxyl group between adjacent perfluoropolyether chains still has room for improvement from the viewpoint of adsorption to the protective layer. Therefore, the present inventors have further repeatedly conducted research in order to develop a fluorinated ether compound having a divalent linking group between adjacent perfluoropolyether chains that can further improve bonding with the protective layer.

[0077] Specifically, the inventors converted the secondary hydroxyl groups contained in the divalent linking groups disposed between adjacent perfluoropolyether chains contained in the fluorinated ether compound into primary hydroxyl groups with high mobility and adsorption, and in order to fully ensure the bonding points with the protective layer, the number of primary hydroxyl groups contained in the divalent linking groups was set to 2. Furthermore, a lubricating layer was formed using the fluorinated ether compound. As a result, a lubricating layer with good chemical resistance and high adhesion inhibition effect was obtained.

[0078] Furthermore, the inventors have repeatedly conducted in-depth studies and found that as long as a fluorinated ether compound having two or three perfluoropolyether chains is prepared, a specific divalent linking group containing a tetrasubstituted carbon atom bonded to two organic groups having one primary hydroxyl group is arranged between adjacent perfluoropolyether chains via a methylene group (-CH2-), and a methylene group and a specific terminal group having at least one polar group are sequentially arranged at both ends of the skeleton containing the perfluoropolyether chain. The specific divalent linking group in the above-mentioned fluorinated ether compound has two organic side chains branched from the tetrasubstituted carbon atom. The two organic side chains may be the same or different, and are organic groups having 1 to 5 carbon atoms and containing no secondary hydroxyl groups and tertiary hydroxyl groups but containing one primary hydroxyl group. The above-mentioned organic group may contain an ether oxygen atom between carbon atoms, and the terminal bonded to the above-mentioned tetrasubstituted carbon atom may be an ether oxygen atom.

[0079] For such fluorinated ether compounds, polar groups that do not participate in the binding with the active points present on the protective layer are not easily generated due to the reasons shown below <1> to <5>. Therefore, the two ends of the two or three perfluoropolyether chains of the above-mentioned fluorinated ether compounds are respectively in close contact with the protective layer through the two primary hydroxyl groups contained in the divalent linking group (or, the two primary hydroxyl groups contained in the divalent linking group and the polar groups possessed by the terminal groups). Therefore, the state of the fluorinated ether compound of this embodiment applied on the protective layer is not easy to become large in volume, it is easy to wet and spread on the protective layer, and it is easy to obtain a lubricating layer with a uniform coating state. As a result, it has good adhesion to the protective layer, a high coverage rate, and is not easy to introduce pollutants. Therefore, it is presumed that a lubricating layer with excellent chemical resistance and good adhesion inhibition effect can be formed.

[0080] <1> For the above-mentioned fluorinated ether compound, the above-mentioned divalent linking group has two organic side chains branched from a tetrasubstituted carbon atom. The two organic side chains are each an organic group having 1 to 5 carbon atoms and containing one primary hydroxyl group and bonded to the tetrasubstituted carbon atom. Therefore, the distance between each of the two primary hydroxyl groups contained in the above-mentioned divalent linking group and the tetrasubstituted carbon atom in the divalent linking group is appropriate. Therefore, it is not easy for the two primary hydroxyl groups contained in the above-mentioned divalent linking group to be blocked from bonding to the active points on the protective layer by the bulky parts in the fluorinated ether compound such as the nearby perfluoropolyether chain and the tetrasubstituted carbon atom in the divalent linking group.

[0081] <2> The two primary hydroxyl groups contained in the above-mentioned divalent linking group are each arranged in an organic group having 1 to 5 carbon atoms bonded to a tetrasubstituted carbon atom. Therefore, the distance between the two primary hydroxyl groups contained in the divalent linking group is appropriate. Therefore, aggregation of the primary hydroxyl groups caused by the distance between the two primary hydroxyl groups being too close is not easy to occur. In addition, since the distance between the two primary hydroxyl groups is not far, if one of the primary hydroxyl groups contained in the above-mentioned divalent linking group is bonded to the protective layer, the distance between the other primary hydroxyl group and the protective layer also becomes closer. As a result, the other primary hydroxyl group can be oriented to easily induce adsorption to the protective layer. Therefore, the two primary hydroxyl groups contained in the divalent linking group do not hinder each other from bonding to the active points on the protective layer, and the two primary hydroxyl groups are easy to bond to the active points on the protective layer at the same time.

[0082] <3> The above two organic side chains are organic groups with 1 to 5 carbon atoms that do not contain secondary hydroxyl groups and tertiary hydroxyl groups but contain one primary hydroxyl group and are bonded to a tetrasubstituted carbon atom. Therefore, the periphery of the primary hydroxyl group arranged in each organic group is sterically empty. In addition, the primary hydroxyl group generally has a high degree of freedom and can move freely compared to the secondary hydroxyl group. Therefore, the two primary hydroxyl groups contained in the above two-valent linking group can each move spontaneously relative to the active point on the protective layer. Therefore, the two primary hydroxyl groups contained in the above two-valent linking group can easily form a bond with the active point on the protective layer.

[0083] <4> In the case where the above-mentioned fluorinated ether compound has three perfluoropolyether chains, there are two of the above-mentioned divalent linking groups in the molecule. In this case, the perfluoropolyether chain is arranged between two adjacent divalent linking groups. Therefore, the distance between the two primary hydroxyl groups of each of the two adjacent divalent linking groups will not become too close. Therefore, the two primary hydroxyl groups contained in each of the above-mentioned two divalent linking groups are not easily hindered from binding to the active points on the protective layer through the primary hydroxyl groups contained in the adjacent divalent linking groups. In addition, agglomeration with the primary hydroxyl groups contained in the two adjacent divalent linking groups is also not easy to occur.

[0084] <5> For the above-mentioned fluorine-containing ether compound, a perfluoropolyether chain is respectively arranged between the above-mentioned divalent linking group and the two terminal groups. Therefore, the distance between the two primary hydroxyl groups contained in the above-mentioned divalent linking group and the polar group contained in each terminal group will not become too close. As a result, the two primary hydroxyl groups contained in the above-mentioned divalent linking group and the polar group contained in each terminal group are not easily hindered from binding with the active point on the protective layer through the adjacent polar group. In addition, since the distance between the above-mentioned divalent linking group and each terminal group is appropriate, the primary hydroxyl groups contained in the above-mentioned divalent linking group and the polar groups in each terminal group are not easy to agglomerate. Therefore, the two primary hydroxyl groups contained in the above-mentioned divalent linking group and the polar groups contained in each terminal group are easy to bind to the active point on the protective layer.

[0085] Furthermore, the fluorine-containing ether compound has two or three perfluoropolyether chains. The two or three perfluoropolyether chains contained in the lubricating layer cover the surface of the protective layer and have low surface energy, thereby imparting chemical resistance to the lubricating layer.

[0086] Furthermore, the present inventors have confirmed that a lubricating layer having excellent chemical resistance and adhesion suppressing effect can be formed by using a lubricant containing the above-mentioned fluorinated ether compound, and have thus arrived at the present invention.

[0087] The fluorine-containing ether compound, the lubricant for a magnetic recording medium, and the magnetic recording medium of the present invention are described in detail below. It should be noted that the present invention is not limited to the embodiments described below.

[0088] [Fluorinated ether compounds]

[0089] The fluorine-containing ether compound of the present embodiment is represented by the following formula (1).

[0090] R 1 -CH2-R 2 -(CH2-OCH2-CR 3 R 4 -CH2O-CH2-R 2 ) z -CH2-R 5 (1)

[0091] (In formula (1), z is 1 or 2. R 2 is a perfluoropolyether chain. (z+1) R 2 They may be partially or entirely the same, or they may be different. 1 and R 5 may be the same or different, and are terminal groups having 1 to 50 carbon atoms and having at least one polar group. 3 and R 4 The organic groups may be the same or different and are organic groups having 1 to 5 carbon atoms and containing no secondary or tertiary hydroxyl groups but containing one primary hydroxyl group and bonded to the tetrasubstituted carbon atom. The organic group may contain an ether oxygen atom between carbon atoms, and the terminal bonded to the tetrasubstituted carbon atom may be an ether oxygen atom. When z is 2, the two -CR 3 R 4 - can be the same or different. )

[0092] In the fluorinated ether compound represented by formula (1), z is 1 or 2. Since z is 2 or less, the fluorinated ether compound represented by formula (1) does not become too large. Therefore, it becomes a fluorinated ether compound that can move freely on the protective layer, is easy to wet and spread on the protective layer, and is easy to obtain a lubricating layer with a uniform film thickness. In addition, since z is 1 or more, for example, compared with the case where z is 0, it becomes a fluorinated ether compound that can form a lubricating layer with good adhesion to the protective layer.

[0093] (-OCH2-CR 3 R 4 -CH2O- (divalent linking group)

[0094] -OCH2-CR 3 R 4 The divalent linking group represented by -CH2O- has two organic side chains (R 3 and R 4 ). 3 and R 4 Each of the two organic groups shown is an organic group having 1 to 5 carbon atoms and containing no secondary or tertiary hydroxyl groups but containing one primary hydroxyl group and bonded to a tetrasubstituted carbon atom. The organic group may contain an ether oxygen atom between carbon atoms, and the terminal bonded to the tetrasubstituted carbon atom may be an ether oxygen atom.

[0095] In the fluorinated ether compound represented by formula (1), R 3 and R 4 The organic groups shown may be the same or different. 3 and R 4 If the organic groups shown are the same, then the 2 The adsorption and mobility of the two primary hydroxyl groups contained in the divalent linking groups between the perfluoropolyether chains (hereinafter sometimes referred to as "PFPE chains") shown in the figure become equal to each other, and no significant difference occurs in the adsorption process of the two primary hydroxyl groups to the protective layer. Therefore, a lubricating layer with better adhesion to the protective layer can be formed, which is preferred.

[0096] In the formula (1), when z is 2, the two -CR 3 R 4 - Each can be the same or different. 3 R 4 - is the same, it is preferred that the fluorine-containing ether compound is easy to manufacture. When z in formula (1) is 2, it is more preferred that 2 -CR 3 R 4 -R in 3 and R 4 All the same.

[0097] In the lubricating layer containing the fluorine-containing ether compound represented by formula (1), R contained in the fluorine-containing ether compound 2 The PFPE chains shown do not have electrostatic interactions with the protective layer. Therefore, the PFPE chains contained in the fluorinated ether compound in the lubricating layer exist at a distance from the protective layer. On the other hand, R 3 and R 4 The organic groups shown each contain one primary hydroxyl group as a polar group. The polar group contained in the fluorinated ether compound in the lubricating layer can have an electrostatic interaction with the protective layer. However, in order for the polar group contained in the fluorinated ether compound in the lubricating layer to have an electrostatic interaction with the protective layer, it is necessary to bring the polar group and the protective layer close to each other until about.

[0098] Therefore, if the two primary hydroxyl groups contained in the divalent linking group between two or three PFPE chains of the fluorinated ether compound are too close to the PFPE chains, the protective layer may be blocked by the presence of The PFPE chain at the position above 100,0 ...

[0099] Specifically, for example, when the divalent linking group between two or three PFPE chains of the fluorinated ether compound represented by formula (1) contains a secondary hydroxyl group (for example, when replacing -CR in formula (1) 3 R 4 -When -CH(OH)- is configured, or when the divalent linking group is -OCH2-CH(OH)-CH2O-CH2-CR 3 R 4 -CH2-OCH2-CH(OH)-CH2O-), the distance between the hydroxyl group contained in the divalent linking group and the PFPE chain tends to become closer than that of the fluorinated ether compound represented by formula (1). Moreover, since the carbon atom to which the hydroxyl group is bonded has two substituents, the secondary hydroxyl group has a lower degree of freedom of movement in the molecule than the primary hydroxyl group. Therefore, the electrostatic interaction between the secondary hydroxyl group contained in the divalent linking group and the protective layer is easily hindered. As a result, when the fluorinated ether compound in the lubricating layer has a divalent linking group containing a secondary hydroxyl group, the divalent linking group is not easy to fully express its function as an adsorption unit to the protective layer.

[0100] In addition, when a plurality of hydroxyl groups with different stereoelectronic environments coexist in the bivalent linking groups between the PFPE chains of the fluorinated ether compound, the hydroxyl groups with high freedom of movement preferentially bind to the protective layer and occupy the active points on the protective layer. Therefore, the active points to which the hydroxyl groups with low mobility can bind are lost, and hydroxyl groups that are not adsorbed to the protective layer are easily generated.

[0101] Specifically, for example, in the case where a primary hydroxyl group and a secondary hydroxyl group having different stereoelectronic environments coexist in a divalent linking group between two or three PFPE chains of the fluorinated ether compound represented by formula (1) (for example, in the case where R 3 and / or R 4 In the case of -OCH2CH(OH)CH2OH, or in the case of -O-CH2-CH(OH)-CH2-O-CH2-C(CH2OH)2-CH2-O-CH2-CH(OH)-CH2-O-), the primary hydroxyl group having higher mobility and adsorption than the secondary hydroxyl group preferentially binds to the active point on the protective layer. Therefore, the active point on the protective layer to which the secondary hydroxyl group can bind is lost, and the secondary hydroxyl group cannot electrostatically interact with the protective layer, and is easily freed from the protective layer. As a result, the surface energy of the fluorinated ether compound molecule as a whole becomes higher, and the chemical substance is easily attached to the lubricating layer containing the fluorinated ether compound.

[0102] Furthermore, even if the divalent linking group contains a primary hydroxyl group, for example, R 3 and R 4 When one of the organic groups is a hydrogen atom, the function of the divalent linking group between two or three PFPE chains as an adsorption unit to the protective layer cannot be fully obtained.

[0103] In the fluorinated ether compound represented by formula (1), R 3 and R 4 The organic group shown is an organic group having 1 to 5 carbon atoms, preferably an organic group having 1 to 3 carbon atoms. 3 and R 4 Since the number of carbon atoms of the organic group shown is 1 or more, the distance between the tetrasubstituted carbon atom in the divalent linking group and the primary hydroxyl group and the distance between two primary hydroxyl groups included in the divalent linking group are appropriate.

[0104] In addition, due to R 3 and R 4 The carbon number of the organic group shown is 5 or less, so the flexibility of the divalent linking group between the PFPE chains becomes good, and the state of the fluorine-containing ether compound coated on the protective layer is not easy to become bulky, and a lubricating layer with uniform film thickness can be formed. 3 and R 4The carbon number of the organic group shown is 5 or less, so the mobility of the two primary hydroxyl groups contained in the divalent linking group is not too high. Therefore, it is difficult for the two primary hydroxyl groups to be oriented to be freed from the protective layer. As a result, it is possible to prevent the two primary hydroxyl groups from being oriented to be freed from the protective layer, thereby increasing the surface energy of the fluorinated ether compound molecules as a whole, and causing the chemical substance to adhere to the lubricating layer containing the fluorinated ether compound. Furthermore, due to R 3 and R 4 The number of carbon atoms of the organic group shown is 5 or less, so that the two primary hydroxyl groups included in the divalent linking group are unlikely to interact with each other, and the primary hydroxyl groups in the divalent linking group and R are unlikely to interact with each other. 1 and R 5 Therefore, the binding of the two primary hydroxyl groups contained in the divalent linking group to the active sites on the protective layer is not easily inhibited, and the divalent linking group is easy to bind to the active sites on the protective layer.

[0105] R 3 and R 4 The organic group shown may contain an ether oxygen atom between carbon atoms, and the terminal connected to the above-mentioned tetrasubstituted carbon atom may be an ether oxygen atom. 3 and / or R 4 When the organic group shown contains an etheric oxygen atom, R containing the etheric oxygen atom 3 and / or R 4 The flexibility of the R containing ether oxygen atoms becomes good. 3 and / or R 4 The primary hydroxyl group in the cation is preferred because it facilitates adhesion with the protective layer.

[0106] R 3 and R 4 The number of ether oxygen atoms that may be contained in the organic group may be one or more, but is preferably only one in order to prevent the fluorine-containing ether compound coated on the protective layer from becoming bulky.

[0107] In R 3 and R 4 When the organic group shown does not contain an ethereal oxygen atom, R 3 and R 4 Preferably, each independently is a group represented by the following formula (2-1). 3 and R 4 When the organic group shown contains an ether oxygen atom, R 3 and R 4 Preferably, each independently is a group represented by the following formula (2-2) or formula (2-3).

[0108] The group represented by formula (2-2) has a linear alkylene chain having 1 to 5 carbon atoms to which a primary hydroxyl group is bonded, and the terminal bonded to the tetrasubstituted carbon atom is an ether oxygen atom. In addition, the group represented by formula (2-3) contains one ether oxygen atom between methylene groups forming the linear alkylene chain having 1 to 5 carbon atoms to which a primary hydroxyl group is bonded.

[0110] (In formula (2-1), a is an integer from 1 to 5.)

[0111] (In formula (2-2), b is an integer from 1 to 5.)

[0112] (In formula (2-3), c and d are each independently an integer of 1 to 4, and c+d≤5.)

[0113] In R 3 and R 4 When each is independently any group represented by formula (2-1) to formula (2-3), since a in formula (2-1), b in formula (2-2), c and d in formula (2-3) are each 1 or more, R 3 and R 4 The primary hydroxyl group contained in the organic group shown can form an appropriate distance with the tetrasubstituted carbon atom in the divalent linking group. 3 and R 4 The primary hydroxyl group in is not affected by the bulkiness of the tetrasubstituted carbon atom in the divalent linking group and can move freely. 3 and R 4 The primary hydroxyl groups in the divalent linking group are easy to adhere to the protective layer, and the lubricating layer containing the fluorinated ether compound represented by formula (1) is not easy to float from the protective layer. In addition, since a, b, c and d are greater than 1, the distance between the two primary hydroxyl groups contained in the divalent linking group becomes appropriate, and the primary hydroxyl groups are not easy to agglomerate with each other.

[0114] Since a in Formula (2-1) and b in Formula (2-2) are 5 or less, c and d in Formula (2-3) are each independently 4 or less and c+d is 5 or less, R 3 and R 4 The mobility of the organic radical shown will not become too high, R 3 and R 4 Therefore, the interaction between the two primary hydroxyl groups contained in the divalent linking group and the interaction between the primary hydroxyl group in the divalent linking group and R 1 or R 5 As shown in the interaction of the terminal groups, the two primary hydroxyl groups can effectively bind to the active sites on the protective layer.

[0115] In order to easily obtain these effects, a in formula (2-1) is preferably 1 to 3. b in formula (2-2) is preferably 1 to 3, and more preferably 1 or 2. In addition, c and d in formula (2-3) are preferably each independently an integer of 1 to 3, and c and d are more preferably each 1 or 2. In addition, c+d in formula (2-3) is preferably 2 to 4, and more preferably 2 or 3.

[0116] (R 2 Perfluoropolyether chain shown)

[0117] In the fluorine-containing ether compound represented by formula (1), (z+1) R 2 Each independently represents a PFPE chain. When a lubricant comprising the fluorinated ether compound of this embodiment is applied onto the protective layer to form a lubricating layer, R 2 The PFPE chains shown cover the surface of the protective layer and impart lubricity to the lubricating layer, thereby reducing the friction between the magnetic head and the protective layer. 2 The PFPE chain shown is appropriately selected depending on the performance required of the lubricant containing the fluorine-containing ether compound, etc.

[0118] In the fluorine-containing ether compound represented by formula (1), (z+1) R 2 Some or all of them may be the same, or they may be different. 2 It is preferred that all of them are the same. This is because the coating state of the protective layer with the fluorinated ether compound becomes uniform, and a lubricating layer with better adhesion is obtained. 2 Two or more R 2 The same means (z+1) R 2 Among them, the repeating units containing two or more PFPE chains have the same structure R 2 . In the same R 2 The same repeating unit structure and different average polymerization degrees are also included. 2 .

[0124] In formula (3), w1 and w6 are average values ​​representing the number of CF2, and each independently represents 1 to 3. In the PFPE chain represented by formula (3), w1 and w6 are determined by the structure of the repeating unit arranged at the end of the chain structure, etc.

[0125] In formula (3), (CF2O), (CF2CF2CF2O), (CF2CF2CF2O), (CF2CF2CF2CF2O) are repeating units. There is no particular restriction on the arrangement order of the repeating units in formula (3). In addition, there is no particular restriction on the number of types of repeating units in formula (3).

[0126] The (z+1) R in formula (1) 2 Preferably, each independently is any one selected from the group consisting of PFPE chains represented by the following formula (3-1) to formula (3-4).

[0127] If (z+1) R 2 Each independently represents any one of the PFPE chains represented by formula (3-1) to (3-4), and a lubricating layer having good lubricity is obtained. 2When each is independently selected from any one of the PFPE chains represented by formula (3-1) to formula (3-4), the ratio of the number of oxygen atoms (the number of ether bonds (-O-)) in the PFPE chain to the number of carbon atoms is appropriate. Therefore, a fluorinated ether compound having a moderate hardness is obtained. Therefore, the fluorinated ether compound applied to the protective layer is not easily agglomerated on the protective layer, and a thinner lubricating layer can be formed with a sufficient coverage. In addition, the fluorinated ether compound has moderate softness, so that a lubricating layer with better chemical resistance can be formed.

[0128] -CF2-(OCF2CF2) n -(OCF2) o -OCF2-(3-1)

[0134] -(CF2) w7 -O-(CF2CF2CF2O) w8 -(CF2CF2O) w9 -(CF2) w10 -(3-4)

[0135] (In formula (3-4), w8 and w9 represent average polymerization degrees, and each independently represents 1 to 20. w7 and w10 represent average values ​​of the number of CF2 groups, and each independently represents 1 to 2.)

[0136] In formula (3-1), there is no particular restriction on the arrangement order of (OCF2CF2) and (OCF2) as repeating units. In formula (3-1), the number n of (OCF2CF2) and the number o of (OCF2) may be the same or different. The PFPE chain shown in formula (3-1) may be a polymer of (OCF2CF2). In addition, the PFPE chain shown in formula (3-1) may be any of a random copolymer, a block copolymer, and an alternating copolymer composed of (OCF2CF2) and (OCF2).

[0137] In formula (3-1) to formula (3-3), since n representing the average degree of polymerization is 1 to 20, o is 0 to 20, p is 1 to 15, and q is 1 to 10, it is a fluorine-containing ether compound that can obtain a lubricating layer with good lubricity. In addition, in formula (3-1) to formula (3-3), since n and o representing the average degree of polymerization are 20 or less, p is 15 or less, and q is 10 or less, the viscosity of the fluorine-containing ether compound does not become too high, and the lubricant containing the fluorine-containing ether compound is easy to apply and is preferred. In order to obtain a fluorine-containing ether compound that is easy to wet and spread on the protective layer and easy to obtain a lubricating layer with a uniform film thickness, n, o, p, and q representing the average degree of polymerization are preferably 1 to 10, more preferably 1.5 to 8, and further preferably 2 to 7.

[0138] In formula (3-4), there is no particular restriction on the arrangement order of (CF2CF2CF2O) and (CF2CF2O) as repeating units. In formula (3-4), the number w8 of (CF2CF2CF2O) and the number w9 of (CF2CF2O) may be the same or different.

[0141] (R 1 and R 5 terminal groups shown)

[0142] In the fluorine-containing ether compound represented by formula (1), R 1 and R 5may be the same or different, and are terminal groups having 1 to 50 carbon atoms and having at least one polar group. 1 and R 5 The terminal groups shown are preferably each independently an organic group having 1 to 20 carbon atoms, more preferably an organic group having 2 to 12 carbon atoms. When the number of carbon atoms is within the above range, the ratio of the number of carbon atoms to the number of polar groups becomes appropriate, resulting in a fluorine-containing ether compound having appropriate molecular polarity.

[0143] R 1 and R 5 The terminal groups shown in the formula (a) are preferably oxygen atoms at the ends of the adjacent methylene groups. 1 and R 5 The fluorine-containing ether compound is bonded to adjacent methylene groups via ether bonds to form a fluorine-containing ether compound having moderate hardness. Therefore, the fluorine-containing ether compound applied on the protective layer is not easily aggregated on the protective layer, and a thinner lubricating layer can be formed with sufficient coverage.

[0144] As R 1 and / or R 5 The polar groups possessed by the terminal groups shown in the figure include, for example, hydroxyl (-OH), amino (-NR 10 R 11 ; R 10 and R 11 Each is independently a hydrogen atom or an organic group. ), carboxyl (-COOH), formyl (-(C=O)H), carbonyl (-CO-), sulfonyl (-SO3H), cyano (-CN), a group having an amide bond (-NR 6 COR 7 or-CONR 8 R 9 ; R 6 , R 7 , R 8 and R 9 Each independently represents a hydrogen atom or an organic group. ) etc. It should be noted that, as shown in the above formula, the "group having an amide bond" includes both a group bonded to the carbon atom constituting the amide bond (e.g., a formamide group (-C(=O)NH2)) and a group bonded to the nitrogen atom constituting the amide bond (e.g., an acetamide group (-NHC(=O)CH3)). In the group having an amide bond, the above R 6 With R 7 can be combined with each other to form a ring, the above R 8 With R 9 The above R in the group having an amide bond may be bonded to each other to form a ring. 6 , R 7 , R 8 and R 9Preferably, they are each independently selected from a hydrogen atom, a methyl group, an ethyl group, a propyl group, and a butyl group.

[0145] In order to further improve the chemical resistance, R 1 and R 5 At least one of the terminal groups shown in the formula preferably has at least one hydroxyl group as a polar group. As a result, a fluorinated ether compound can be formed to obtain a lubricating layer with high adhesion to the protective layer, chemical resistance and adhesion suppression effect. In order to obtain a fluorinated ether compound that can form a lubricating layer with better adhesion to the protective layer, R 1 and R 5 More preferably, each independently has at least one hydroxyl group as a polar group.

[0146] In order to form a fluorinated ether compound capable of forming a lubricating layer having better adhesion to the protective layer, R 1 and R 5 The number of polar groups possessed by the terminal groups represented by is preferably 1 to 3, and more preferably 2 or 3. In order to improve the adhesion with the protective layer and to achieve a thin film of the lubricating layer, R 1 The polar groups contained in R 5 The total number of polar groups included is preferably 3 to 6. If the total number is 3 or more, the adhesion (closeness) of the lubricating layer and the protective layer containing the fluorinated ether compound is higher. In addition, if the total number is 6 or less, in the magnetic recording medium having the lubricating layer containing the fluorinated ether compound, the polarity of the fluorinated ether compound is too high and the adhesion to the magnetic head as a foreign matter (stain) can be prevented.

[0147] R 1 The number of polar groups contained and R 5 The number of polar groups included may be the same or different, but is preferably the same. 1 and R 5 Each contains 2 polar groups, or R 1 and R 5 Each contains three polar groups. In this case, the lubricant containing the fluorine-containing ether compound and the protective layer are well-balanced and closely attached. Therefore, it is easy to obtain a lubricating layer with high coverage, chemical resistance and better adhesion inhibition effect.

[0148] In R 1 and / or R 5 When containing two or more polar groups, R 1 Neutralize and / or R 5 The types of polar groups contained in may be partially the same, entirely the same, or entirely different.

[0149] In R1 and / or R 5 When two or more polar groups are included, the two or more polar groups are preferably bonded to different carbon atoms, and one or more carbon atoms are included between the carbon atoms to which the adjacent polar groups are bonded. In this case, the adjacent polar groups are bonded to form an appropriate interatomic distance compared to the case where the carbon atoms to which the adjacent polar groups are bonded are directly bonded to each other. Therefore, R 1 and / or R 5 The multiple polar groups possessed by the protective layer are oriented so as to be closely attached to the protective layer. 1 and / or R 5 The multiple polar groups possessed are less likely to aggregate and can easily form bonds with active sites on the protective layer.

[0150] R 1 and / or R 5 The terminal group shown may be an organic group having at least one polar group and further having a carbon-carbon unsaturated bond site. 1 and / or R 5 When the terminal group shown has a carbon-carbon unsaturated bond site, the terminal group is preferably an organic group having at least one selected from an aromatic hydrocarbon group, an unsaturated heterocyclic group, an alkenyl group, and an alkynyl group.

[0151] Examples of the aromatic hydrocarbon group include phenyl, methoxyphenyl, fluorophenyl, naphthyl, methoxynaphthyl, etc. The aromatic hydrocarbon group includes a group in which a substituent (such as a methoxy group or a fluoro group) is bonded to an aromatic hydrocarbon as described above.

[0152] Examples of the unsaturated heterocyclic group include pyrrolyl, pyrazolyl, methylpyrazolyl, imidazolyl, furyl, furanyl, Azolyl, iso oxazolyl, thienyl, thiazolyl, isothiazolyl, pyridyl, pyrimidinyl, pyridazinyl, pyrazinyl, indolinyl, benzofuranyl, benzothiophenyl, benzimidazolyl, benzo Azolyl, benzothiazolyl, benzopyrazolyl, benzisophthalic acid Examples of the unsaturated heterocyclic group include oxazolyl, benzisothiazolyl, quinolyl, isoquinolyl, quinazolinyl, quinoxalinyl, phthalazinyl, cinnolinyl, etc. The unsaturated heterocyclic group includes the group in which a substituent (such as a methyl group) is bonded to the unsaturated heterocyclic ring as described above.

[0153] Examples of the alkenyl group include vinyl, allyl, butenyl, pentenyl, and hexenyl.

[0154] Examples of the alkynyl group include 1-propynyl, propargyl, butynyl, pentynyl, and hexynyl.

[0155] In R 1 and / or R 5When the terminal group has a carbon-carbon unsaturated bond site, it is preferred because the lubricating layer containing the fluorinated ether compound has excellent adhesion to the protective layer and the thickness can be reduced. The reason is described below.

[0156] Among the active points present in large numbers on the protective layer, there are sites where local charging occurs and sites where the charge distribution is expanded. 3 and R 4 The hydroxyl groups (and R 1 and / or R 5 In the case of having a hydroxyl group), and R 1 and / or R 5 The carbon-carbon unsaturated bond sites included in the terminal groups shown are adsorbed to different sites on the protective layer.

[0157] Specifically, R in formula (1) 3 and R 4 The hydroxyl groups (and R 1 and / or R 5 The hydroxyl group in the case of having a hydroxyl group) interacts with the locally charged site on the protective layer through hydrogen atoms via hydrogen bonds, thereby exhibiting adsorption ability. 1 and / or R 5 Since the carbon-carbon unsaturated bond site included in the terminal group has a non-localized charge, it exhibits adsorption capability by interacting with the site where the charge distribution on the protective layer is expanded.

[0158] Therefore, R in formula (1) 3 and R 4 The hydroxyl groups (and R 1 and / or R 5 In the case of having a hydroxyl group), and R 1 and / or R 5 The carbon-carbon unsaturated bond sites contained in the terminal groups shown can interact independently with the active sites on the protective layer. 1 and / or R 5 The fluorinated ether compound having a carbon-carbon unsaturated bond site at the terminal group has a more excellent adhesion between the lubricating layer and the protective layer, exhibits good chemical resistance even with a thin thickness, and has a high adhesion suppressing effect.

[0159] R 1 and R 5 The terminal groups shown preferably contain 2 or 3 polar groups, at least one of which is a hydroxyl terminal group. 1 and R 5Specifically, the terminal groups shown are preferably each independently any one of the terminal groups shown by the following formula (4-1) to formula (4-3).

In formulas (4-1) to (4-3), X 1 In the case of alkenyl, X 1 -CH=CH2 is preferred. -CH=CH2 has a suitable large volume. Therefore, 1 The lubricating layer of the fluorine-containing ether compound having a terminal group of -CH=CH2 tends to be in a state where the bulkiness of the fluorine-containing ether compound on the protective layer is low, and the adhesive property is good.

[0167] In formula (4-1) to formula (4-3), in X 1 In the case of an alkynyl group, X 1 The carbon atom that forms the unsaturated bond in 1The adjacent methylene groups are bonded. 1 In the case of an alkynyl group, as X 1 , for example, -C≡CH, -C≡CR 18 (R 18 is an organic group. ) etc. 18 The organic group represented by is preferably a hydrocarbon group having 1 to 3 carbon atoms. In formulas (4-1) to (4-3), X 1 In the case of an alkynyl group, in order to form a terminal group with a suitable bulkiness, X is preferably 1 -C≡CH.

[0168] In formula (4-1) to formula (4-3), in X 1 In the case of a polar group, X 1 The polar groups exemplified above can be used. Among these polar groups, X 1 Preferably, it is a hydroxyl group, a group having an amide bond, or a cyano group. 1 If the lubricating layer is formed on the protective layer using a lubricant containing the hydroxyl group, the group having an amide bond, or the cyano group, a more suitable interaction occurs between the lubricating layer and the protective layer.

[0169] In formula (4-1) to formula (4-3), X 1 In the case of a polar group, a lubricating layer containing a fluorine-containing ether compound is preferred because it has better adhesion with the protective layer and can be made thinner. The reason is described below.

[0170] In formula (4-1) to formula (4-3), the secondary hydroxyl group in formula (4-1) to formula (4-3) and X 1 The bond is via a divalent organic group which may contain an ether bond. 1 is a polar group, and the secondary hydroxyl group in formula (4-1) to formula (4-3) and X 1 As a result, the distance between the secondary hydroxyl group and X in formula (4-1) to formula (4-3) is appropriate. 1 The polar groups shown are not easily blocked from binding to the active sites on the protective layer by other polar groups. 1 The polar groups shown do not easily aggregate.

[0171] Therefore, the secondary hydroxyl group and X in formula (4-1) to formula (4-3) 1 The polar groups shown can be adsorbed independently on the active sites on the protective layer. As a result, the X 1The lubricating layer of the fluorinated ether compound having a terminal group as a polar group has better adhesion with the protective layer, exhibits good chemical resistance even with a thin thickness, and has a high adhesion suppressing effect.

[0172] In the above, X in formula (4-1) to formula (4-3) 1 Any of a hydroxyl group, a group having an amide bond, a cyano group, and -CH=CH2 is preferred because it is a fluorine-containing ether compound that can form a lubricating layer having a higher coverage rate, and is more excellent in chemical resistance and adhesion suppression effect.

[0173] In the terminal group represented by formula (4-1), y1 is 1 or 2, and y2 is an integer from 0 to 3. When y1 is 1, X 1 is a polar group, and formula (4-1) has two polar groups. In this case, since formula (4-1) has two polar groups, a lubricating layer with good adhesion to the protective layer can be formed. When y1 is 2, X 1 It may be any one of an aromatic hydrocarbon group, an unsaturated heterocyclic group, an alkenyl group, an alkynyl group, and a polar group. 1 When X is any one of an aromatic hydrocarbon group, an unsaturated heterocyclic group, an alkenyl group, and an alkynyl group, Formula (4-1) also has two polar groups. Therefore, a lubricating layer having good adhesion to the protective layer can be formed. 1 is an aromatic hydrocarbon group, an unsaturated heterocyclic group, an alkenyl group or an alkynyl group. Therefore, when the adhesion of the two hydroxyl groups contained in formula (4-1) to the protective layer is not impaired, X 1 The carbon-carbon unsaturated bond sites interact with the π-π of the protective layer, thereby forming a lubricating layer with excellent chemical resistance and adhesion inhibition effect. 1 When it is a polar group, the formula (4-1) has three polar groups. Therefore, a lubricating layer having better adhesion to the protective layer can be formed.

[0174] In the terminal group represented by formula (4-1), y2 is an integer of 0 to 3. For the terminal group represented by formula (4-1), since X in formula (4-1) 1 is a polar group, X 1 The distance to the secondary hydroxyl group in formula (4-1) is not too close, so the polar group in formula (4-1) is not easy to aggregate. 1 In the case of a polar group, for X 1 The distance from the secondary hydroxyl group in formula (4-1) becomes more appropriate, and y2 is preferably 1 or more. For the terminal group represented by formula (4-1), since y2 is 3 or less, X in formula (4-1) 1The mobility of will not become too high, and each polar group possessed by the terminal group can be sufficiently adhered to the protective layer. y2 is more preferably 2 or less.

[0175] In the terminal group represented by formula (4-2), y3 is an integer of 1 to 3. When y4 is 0, X 1 Since y3 is an integer greater than 1, when y4 is 0, X 1 The distance from the secondary hydroxyl group in formula (4-2) becomes appropriate, even if X 1 It is a polar group, and the polar group in formula (4-2) is not easy to agglomerate. In addition, since y3 is an integer greater than 1, when y4 is 1, the distance between the secondary hydroxyl groups in formula (4-2) will not become too close, and the secondary hydroxyl groups in formula (4-2) are not easy to agglomerate. For the terminal group shown in formula (4-2), since y3 is less than 3, the mobility of the terminal group shown in formula (4-2) will not become too high, and each polar group possessed by the terminal group can be fully fitted with the protective layer. y3 is preferably less than 2.

[0176] In the terminal group represented by formula (4-2), y4 is 0 or 1. When y4 is 0, X 1 is a polar group, and formula (4-2) has two polar groups. In this case, since formula (4-2) has two polar groups, a lubricating layer with good adhesion to the protective layer can be formed. When y4 is 1, X 1 It may be any one of an aromatic hydrocarbon group, an unsaturated heterocyclic group, an alkenyl group, an alkynyl group, and a polar group. 1 When X is any one of an aromatic hydrocarbon group, an unsaturated heterocyclic group, an alkenyl group or an alkynyl group, the formula (4-2) also has two polar groups. Therefore, a lubricating layer having good adhesion to the protective layer can be formed. 1 is an aromatic hydrocarbon group, an unsaturated heterocyclic group, an alkenyl group or an alkynyl group. Therefore, when the adhesion of the two hydroxyl groups contained in formula (4-2) to the protective layer is not impaired, X 1 The carbon-carbon unsaturated bond site interacts with the π-π of the protective layer, thereby forming a lubricating layer with excellent chemical resistance and adhesion inhibition effect. 1 When it is a polar group, the formula (4-2) has three polar groups. Therefore, a lubricating layer having excellent adhesion to the protective layer can be formed.

[0177] In the terminal group represented by formula (4-2), y5 is an integer of 0 to 3. For the terminal group represented by formula (4-2), since even if X in formula (4-2) 1 is a polar group, X 1The distance to the secondary hydroxyl group in formula (4-2) is not too close, so the polar group in formula (4-2) is not easy to aggregate. 1 In the case of a polar group, for X 1 The distance from the secondary hydroxyl group in formula (4-2) becomes more appropriate, and y5 is preferably 1 or more. In addition, when y4 is 0, even if y5 is 0, y3 methylene groups are present to form a polar group X. 1 The distance from the secondary hydroxyl group in formula (4-2) becomes appropriate. When y4 is 0, if y5 is 1 or more, the polar group X is formed by y3+y5 methylene groups. 1 The distance from the secondary hydroxyl group in formula (4-2) is more appropriate and therefore preferred. For the terminal group represented by formula (4-2), since y5 is 3 or less, X in formula (4-2) 1 The mobility of the terminal group will not become too high, and each polar group possessed by the terminal group can be sufficiently adhered to the protective layer. y5 is preferably 2 or less.

[0178] In the terminal group represented by formula (4-3), y6 is 0 or 1. When y6 is 0, X 1 is a polar group, and formula (4-3) has two polar groups. In this case, since formula (4-3) has two polar groups, a lubricating layer with good adhesion to the protective layer can be formed. When y6 is 1, X 1 It may be any one of an aromatic hydrocarbon group, an unsaturated heterocyclic group, an alkenyl group, an alkynyl group, and a polar group. 1 When X is an aromatic hydrocarbon group, an unsaturated heterocyclic group, an alkenyl group or an alkynyl group, the formula (4-3) also has two polar groups. Therefore, a lubricating layer having good adhesion to the protective layer can be formed. 1 is an aromatic hydrocarbon group, an unsaturated heterocyclic group, an alkenyl group or an alkynyl group. Therefore, when the adhesion of the two hydroxyl groups contained in formula (4-3) to the protective layer is not impaired, X 1 The carbon-carbon unsaturated bond site interacts with the π-π of the protective layer, thereby forming a lubricating layer with excellent chemical resistance and adhesion inhibition effect. 1 When it is a polar group, the formula (4-3) has three polar groups. Therefore, a lubricating layer having excellent adhesion to the protective layer can be formed.

[0179] In the terminal group represented by formula (4-3), y7 is an integer of 1 to 3. Since y7 is greater than 1, when y6 is 1, the distance between the secondary hydroxyl groups in formula (4-3) will not become too close. Therefore, the secondary hydroxyl groups in formula (4-3) are not easy to agglomerate. For the terminal group represented by formula (4-3), since y7 is less than 3, the mobility of the terminal group represented by formula (4-3) will not become too high, and each polar group possessed by the terminal group can be fully adhered to the protective layer. y7 is preferably less than 2.

[0180] In the terminal group represented by formula (4-3), y8 is an integer of 1 to 3. In the terminal group represented by formula (4-3), since y8 is 1 or more, even if X in formula (4-3) 1 is a polar group, X 1 The distance to the secondary hydroxyl group in formula (4-3) will not become too close. Therefore, the polar group in formula (4-3) is not easy to aggregate. 1 In the case of a polar group, for X 1 The distance from the secondary hydroxyl group in formula (4-3) becomes more appropriate, and y8 is preferably 2 or more. For the terminal group represented by formula (4-3), since y8 is 3 or less, X in formula (4-3) 1 The mobility of the terminal group will not become too high, and the polar groups possessed by the terminal group can be sufficiently adhered to the protective layer.

[0181] In the fluorine-containing ether compound represented by formula (1), R 1 With R 5 They can be the same or different. 1 With R 5 If the coating state of the protective layer with the fluorinated ether compound is the same, the coating state of the protective layer with the fluorinated ether compound becomes more uniform, and a lubricating layer with better adhesion can be formed.

[0182] In the fluorine-containing ether compound represented by formula (1), R 1 and R 5 The type of the terminal group shown above can be appropriately selected depending on the performance required of the lubricant containing the fluorine-containing ether compound, etc.

[0183] In the fluorine-containing ether compound represented by formula (1), z is preferably 1, and R 1 With R 5 Same, 2 R 2 The reason is that it is a fluorine-containing ether compound that is easy to synthesize.

[0184] In the fluorine-containing ether compound represented by formula (1), z is preferably 2, and R 1 With R 5 Same, 3 Rs 2The reason is that it is a fluorine-containing ether compound that is easy to synthesize. Further, when z is 2, preferably 2 -CR 3 R 4 -same. The reason is that it is easier to synthesize fluorine-containing ether compounds.

[0185] Specifically, the fluorinated ether compound represented by (1) is preferably any one of the compounds represented by the following formulas (1A) to (1T) and (2A) to (2T). When the compound represented by formula (1) is any one of the compounds represented by the following formulas (1A) to (1T) and (2A) to (2T), the raw material is easy to obtain, and a lubricating layer having excellent adhesion even with a thin thickness, and having better chemical resistance and adhesion suppression effect can be formed.

[0186] The compounds represented by the following formulae (1A) to (1T) and (2A) to (2T) all have R in formula (1): 2 The (z+1) PFPE chains shown are all identical.

[0187] In the compounds represented by the following formulae (1A) to (1T) and (2A) to (2T), Rf1 and Rf2 representing the PFPE chain each have the following structure. That is, in the compounds represented by the following formulae (1A) to (1F), (1J), (1K), (1N), (1P) to (1T), (2A) to (2F), (2J), (2K), (2N), (2P) to (2T), Rf2 is the PFPE chain represented by the above formula (3-2). In the compounds represented by the following formulae (1G) to (1I), (1L), (1M), (1O), (2G) to (2I), (2L), (2M), (2O), Rf1 is the PFPE chain represented by the above formula (3-1). Note that j and k in Rf1 and l in Rf2 representing PFPE chains in Formulae (1A) to (1T) and (2A) to (2T) are values ​​indicating average polymerization degrees and are not necessarily integers.

If the number average molecular weight is above 500, the lubricant containing the fluorinated ether compound of the present embodiment is not easy to evaporate, and the lubricant can be prevented from evaporating and being transferred to the magnetic head. In addition, if the number average molecular weight is below 10,000, the viscosity of the fluorinated ether compound is appropriate, and a thin lubricating layer can be easily formed by applying the lubricant containing the fluorinated ether compound. If the number average molecular weight is below 5,000, it becomes a viscosity that is easy to handle when applied to a lubricant, and is therefore more preferred.

[0238] The number average molecular weight (Mn) of the fluorinated ether compound was determined by using AVANCE III 400 manufactured by Bruker Biospin Co., Ltd. 1 H-NMR and 19 Specifically, the value measured by 19The number of repeating units of the PFPE chain is calculated from the integrated value measured by F-NMR to determine the number average molecular weight. In the measurement of NMR (nuclear magnetic resonance), the sample is diluted in a single or mixed solvent such as hexafluorobenzene, d-acetone, d-tetrahydrofuran, etc. and used for the measurement. 19 The standard of the F-NMR chemical shift was the peak of hexafluorobenzene at -164.7 ppm. 1 The standard of H-NMR chemical shift was set at 2.2 ppm based on the peak of acetone.

[0239] The fluorine-containing ether compound of the present embodiment is preferably subjected to molecular weight fractionation by an appropriate method so that the molecular weight distribution (ratio of weight average molecular weight (Mw) / number average molecular weight (Mn)) is 1.3 or less.

[0240] In the present embodiment, the method for molecular weight fractionation is not particularly limited, and for example, molecular weight fractionation using silica gel column chromatography, gel permeation chromatography (GPC), or the like, molecular weight fractionation using supercritical extraction, or the like can be used.

[0242] The method for producing the fluorine-containing ether compound of the present embodiment is not particularly limited, and the fluorine-containing ether compound of the present embodiment can be produced by a conventionally known production method. The fluorine-containing ether compound of the present embodiment can be produced, for example, by the production method described below.

A suitable protecting group (PG) is introduced into the hydroxymethyl group at one end of the fluorine compound (I) to obtain the first intermediate compound (II).

[0256] By carrying out the above steps, it is possible to produce a compound in which z is 1 and R 1 With R 5 The two terminal groups shown are identical, and R 2 The two PFPE chains shown are identical fluorinated ether compounds.

[0257] When the fluorine-containing ether compound of the present embodiment is produced by the above-mentioned first production method, the compound (III) used in the second reaction includes, for example, compounds represented by the following formulas (A) to (S). The compound (III) can be produced by a known method. The compound (III) can be purchased from a commercial product.

R 3 'With R 4 'Each represents R in formula (1) 3 and R 4 The structure of the hydroxyl group contained is combined with a protective group, and has a group of carbon atoms combined with a tetrasubstituted carbon atom. )

Next, 4 'Organic (pseudo)halides (XR 4') is further reacted with the intermediate compound (III-2). Thus, an intermediate compound (III-3) containing four substituted carbon atoms is obtained. Next, the two ester groups in the intermediate compound (III-3) are reduced to hydroxymethyl groups to obtain an intermediate compound (III-4). Then, the hydroxyl group of the obtained intermediate compound (III-4) is converted into a suitable (pseudo) halogen group. Through the above steps, the compound (III) used in the second reaction is obtained.

[0265] In this embodiment, when the 3 After the organic group of ' is combined with the malonic acid ester (III-1), the equivalent of R 4 ' organic group to construct a tetrasubstituted carbon atom. However, it is also possible to make the equivalent of R 4 After the organic group of ' is combined with the malonic acid ester (III-1), the equivalent of R 3 ' organic group combines to construct a four-substituted carbon atom.

[0267]

[0268] (In formula (7), Et represents an ethyl group. X represents a (pseudo)halogen group. R 3 'Represented as 3 The included hydroxyl group is combined with the structure of the protective group, and the group other than the oxygen atom combined with the tetrasubstituted carbon atom. 4 'Represented as 4 The structure of the hydroxyl group contained is combined with a protective group, and has a group of carbon atoms combined with a tetrasubstituted carbon atom. )

[0269] First, use the equivalent of R 3 'Organic (pseudo)halides (XR 3 '), alkylation of 2-hydroxymalonic acid ester (III-5) was performed to obtain intermediate compound (III-6). Next, 4 'Organic (pseudo)halides (XR 4') is further reacted with the intermediate compound (III-6). Thus, an intermediate compound (III-7) containing four substituted carbon atoms is obtained. Next, the two ester groups in the intermediate compound (III-7) are reduced to hydroxymethyl groups to obtain an intermediate compound (III-8). Then, the hydroxyl group of the obtained intermediate compound (III-8) is converted into an appropriate (pseudo) halogen group. In the above process, R in formula (1) is prepared 3 and R 4 In the case of a fluorine-containing ether compound in which one of them has an oxygen atom bonded to a tetra-substituted carbon atom and the other has a carbon atom bonded to a tetra-substituted carbon atom, compound (III) used in the second reaction is obtained.

[0354] [Lubricant for magnetic recording media]

[0355] The lubricant for a magnetic recording medium according to the present embodiment contains a fluorine-containing ether compound represented by formula (1).

[0356] The lubricant of the present embodiment may be mixed with known materials used as lubricant materials as needed, as long as the properties due to the inclusion of the fluorine-containing ether compound represented by the above formula (1) are not impaired.

[0357] Specific examples of known materials include FOMBLIN (registered trademark) ZDIAC, FOMBLIN ZDEAL, FOMBLIN AM-2001 (all manufactured by Solvay Solexis), Moresco A20H (manufactured by Moresco), etc. The known material used in combination with the lubricant of the present embodiment preferably has a number average molecular weight of 500 to 10,000.

[0358] When the lubricant of the present embodiment contains a material other than the fluorinated ether compound represented by formula (1), the content of the fluorinated ether compound represented by formula (1) in the lubricant of the present embodiment is preferably 50% by mass or more, more preferably 70% by mass or more. The content of the fluorinated ether compound represented by formula (1) may be 80% by mass or more, or 90% by mass or more.

[0359] Since the lubricant of this embodiment contains the fluorine-containing ether compound represented by the above formula (1), it can form a lubricating layer with excellent adhesion to the protective layer, and can cover the surface of the protective layer with a high coverage rate even if the thickness is thin. Therefore, according to the lubricant of this embodiment, a lubricating layer with high resistance to chemical substances of the magnetic recording medium and excellent adhesion suppression effect can be obtained even if the thickness is thin.

[0360] [Magnetic recording media]

[0361] The magnetic recording medium of this embodiment includes at least a magnetic layer, a protective layer, and a lubricating layer provided in this order on a substrate.

[0362] In the magnetic recording medium of this embodiment, one or more underlayers may be provided between the substrate and the magnetic layer as required. In addition, an adhesion layer and / or a soft magnetic layer may be provided between the underlayer and the substrate.

[0363] Figure 1 This is a schematic cross-sectional view showing one embodiment of the magnetic recording medium of the present invention.

[0364] The magnetic recording medium 10 of the present embodiment has a structure in which an adhesion layer 12 , a soft magnetic layer 13 , a first underlayer 14 , a second underlayer 15 , a magnetic layer 16 , a protective layer 17 , and a lubricating layer 18 are sequentially provided on a substrate 11 .

[0365] "Substrate"

[0366] As the substrate 11 , for example, a non-magnetic substrate in which a film made of NiP or a NiP alloy is formed on a base made of a metal or alloy material such as Al or an Al alloy can be used.

[0367] In addition, as the substrate 11, a non-magnetic substrate formed of a non-metallic material such as glass, ceramics, silicon, silicon carbide, carbon, or resin can be used, or a non-magnetic substrate having a film of NiP or NiP alloy formed on a base formed of these non-metallic materials can be used.

[0368] "Attachment Layer"

[0369] The adhesion layer 12 prevents the substrate 11 from being corroded when the substrate 11 and the soft magnetic layer 13 provided on the adhesion layer 12 are arranged in contact with each other.

[0370] The material of the adhesion layer 12 can be appropriately selected from, for example, Cr, Cr alloy, Ti, Ti alloy, CrTi, NiAl, AlRu alloy, etc. The adhesion layer 12 can be formed by, for example, sputtering.

[0371] "Soft magnetic layer"

[0372] The soft magnetic layer 13 preferably has a structure in which a first soft magnetic film, an intermediate layer composed of a Ru film, and a second soft magnetic film are stacked in sequence. That is, the soft magnetic layer 13 preferably has a structure in which the upper and lower soft magnetic films of the intermediate layer are antiferrocoupled (AFC) by sandwiching an intermediate layer composed of a Ru film between two soft magnetic films.

[0373] Examples of the material of the first soft magnetic film and the second soft magnetic film include CoZrTa alloy and CoFe alloy.

[0374] Preferably, any one of Zr, Ta, and Nb is added to the CoFe alloy used for the first soft magnetic film and the second soft magnetic film. This promotes the amorphization of the first soft magnetic film and the second soft magnetic film. As a result, the orientation of the first base layer (seed layer) can be improved, and the floating amount of the magnetic head can be reduced.

[0375] The soft magnetic layer 13 can be formed by, for example, sputtering.

[0376] "1st base layer"

[0377] The first underlayer 14 is a layer for controlling the orientation and crystal size of the second underlayer 15 and the magnetic layer 16 provided thereon.

[0378] Examples of the first base layer 14 include a Cr layer, a Ta layer, a Ru layer, a CrMo alloy layer, a CoW alloy layer, a CrW alloy layer, a CrV alloy layer, a CrTi alloy layer, and the like.

[0379] The first base layer 14 can be formed by, for example, sputtering.

[0380] "Second base layer"

[0381] The second underlayer 15 is a layer controlled so as to improve the orientation of the magnetic layer 16. The second underlayer 15 is preferably a layer formed of Ru or a Ru alloy.

[0382] The second base layer 15 may be composed of a single layer or a plurality of layers. When the second base layer 15 is composed of a plurality of layers, all layers may be composed of the same material, or at least one layer may be composed of a different material.

[0383] The second base layer 15 can be formed by, for example, sputtering.

[0384] "Magnetic layer"

[0385] The magnetic layer 16 is composed of a magnetic film whose easy magnetization axis is oriented in a vertical or horizontal direction relative to the substrate surface. The magnetic layer 16 is a layer containing Co and Pt. In order to improve the SNR characteristics, the magnetic layer 16 may be a layer containing oxide, Cr, B, Cu, Ta, Zr, etc.

[0386] Examples of the oxide contained in the magnetic layer 16 include SiO 2 , SiO, Cr 2 O 3 , CoO, Ta 2 O 3 , and TiO 2 .

[0387] The magnetic layer 16 may be composed of a single layer or a plurality of magnetic layers formed of materials having different compositions.

[0388] For example, when the magnetic layer 16 is composed of three layers, namely, the first magnetic layer, the second magnetic layer, and the third magnetic layer, which are stacked in order from the bottom, the first magnetic layer is preferably a granular structure formed by a material containing Co, Cr, Pt, and further containing an oxide. As the oxide contained in the first magnetic layer, it is preferred to use, for example, oxides of Cr, Si, Ta, Al, Ti, Mg, Co, etc. Among them, in particular, TiO2, Cr2O3, SiO2, etc. can be used appropriately. In addition, the first magnetic layer is preferably formed by a composite oxide to which two or more oxides are added. In particular, Cr2O3-SiO2, Cr2O3-TiO2, SiO2-TiO2, etc. can be used appropriately. In addition to Co, Cr, Pt, and oxides, the first magnetic layer may also contain one or more elements selected from B, Ta, Mo, Cu, Nd, W, Nb, Sm, Tb, Ru, and Re.

[0389] The second magnetic layer can be made of the same material as that of the first magnetic layer. The second magnetic layer preferably has a granular structure.

[0390] The third magnetic layer is preferably a non-granular structure formed of a material containing Co, Cr, and Pt and containing no oxide. In addition to Co, Cr, and Pt, the third magnetic layer may contain one or more elements selected from B, Ta, Mo, Cu, Nd, W, Nb, Sm, Tb, Ru, Re, and Mn.

[0391] When the magnetic layer 16 is formed of a plurality of magnetic layers, a non-magnetic layer is preferably provided between adjacent magnetic layers. When the magnetic layer 16 is composed of three layers, namely, a first magnetic layer, a second magnetic layer, and a third magnetic layer, a non-magnetic layer is preferably provided between the first magnetic layer and the second magnetic layer, and between the second magnetic layer and the third magnetic layer.

[0392] The non-magnetic layer arranged between adjacent magnetic layers of the magnetic layer 16 can be suitably made of, for example, Ru, Ru alloy, CoCr alloy, CoCrX1 alloy (X1 represents one or more elements selected from Pt, Ta, Zr, Re, Ru, Cu, Nb, Ni, Mn, Ge, Si, O, N, W, Mo, Ti, V, and B), etc.

[0393] In the non-magnetic layer provided between adjacent magnetic layers of the magnetic layer 16, an alloy material containing oxide, metal nitride, or metal carbide is preferably used. Specifically, as oxides, for example, SiO2, Al2O3, Ta2O5, Cr2O3, MgO, Y2O3, TiO2, etc. can be used. As metal nitrides, for example, AlN, Si3N4, TaN, CrN, etc. can be used. As metal carbides, for example, TaC, BC, SiC, etc. can be used.

[0394] The non-magnetic layer can be formed by, for example, sputtering.

[0395] In order to achieve a higher recording density, the magnetic layer 16 is preferably a perpendicular magnetic recording magnetic layer in which the easy magnetization axis is oriented perpendicularly to the substrate surface. The magnetic layer 16 may be an in-plane magnetic recording magnetic layer.

[0396] The magnetic layer 16 can be formed by any conventionally known method such as vapor deposition, ion beam sputtering, magnetron sputtering, etc. The magnetic layer 16 is usually formed by sputtering.

[0397] "Protective layer"

[0398] The protective layer 17 protects the magnetic layer 16. The protective layer 17 may be composed of one layer or multiple layers. Examples of the material of the protective layer 17 include carbon, carbon containing nitrogen, silicon carbide, and the like. As the protective layer 17, a carbon-based protective layer can be preferably used, and an amorphous carbon protective layer is particularly preferred. If the protective layer 17 is a carbon-based protective layer, the interaction with the polar group contained in the fluorine-containing ether compound in the lubricating layer 18 is further improved, so it is preferred.

[0399] The adhesion between the carbon-based protective layer and the lubricating layer 18 can be controlled by making the carbon-based protective layer hydrogenated carbon and / or carbon nitride and adjusting the hydrogen content and / or nitrogen content in the carbon-based protective layer. The hydrogen content in the carbon-based protective layer is preferably 3 atomic % to 20 atomic % when measured by hydrogen forward scattering (HFS). In addition, the nitrogen content in the carbon-based protective layer is preferably 4 atomic % to 15 atomic % when measured by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS).

[0400] The hydrogen and / or nitrogen contained in the carbon-based protective layer does not need to be uniformly contained in the entire carbon-based protective layer. For example, the carbon-based protective layer is a composition gradient layer in which nitrogen is contained on the lubricating layer 18 side of the protective layer 17 and hydrogen is contained on the magnetic layer 16 side of the protective layer 17. In this case, the adhesion between the magnetic layer 16 and the lubricating layer 18 and the carbon-based protective layer is further improved.

[0401] The thickness of the protective layer 17 is preferably 1 nm to 7 nm. When the thickness of the protective layer 17 is 1 nm or more, sufficient performance as the protective layer 17 is obtained. When the thickness of the protective layer 17 is 7 nm or less, it is preferred from the viewpoint of reducing the thickness of the protective layer 17.

[0402] As a method for forming the protective layer 17 , a sputtering method using a target containing carbon, a CVD (chemical vapor deposition) method using a hydrocarbon raw material such as ethylene or toluene, an IBD (ion beam deposition) method, or the like can be used.

[0403] When a carbon-based protective layer is formed as the protective layer 17, for example, a film can be formed by a DC magnetron sputtering method. In particular, when a carbon-based protective layer is formed as the protective layer 17, it is preferable to form an amorphous carbon protective layer by a plasma CVD method. The surface of the amorphous carbon protective layer formed by the plasma CVD method is uniform and has little roughness.

[0404] "Lubricating layer"

[0405] The lubricating layer 18 prevents contamination of the magnetic recording medium 10. In addition, the lubricating layer 18 reduces the frictional force of the magnetic head of the magnetic recording and reproducing device sliding on the magnetic recording medium 10, thereby improving the durability of the magnetic recording medium 10.

[0406] Lubricating layer 18 Figure 1 As shown, the lubricating layer 18 is formed in contact with the protective layer 17. The lubricating layer 18 contains the above-mentioned fluorine-containing ether compound.

[0407] When the protective layer 17 disposed under the lubricating layer 18 is a carbon-based protective layer, the lubricating layer 18 is bonded to the protective layer 17 with a particularly high bonding force. As a result, it is easy to obtain a magnetic recording medium 10 in which the surface of the protective layer 17 is coated with a high coverage rate even if the thickness of the lubricating layer 18 is thin, and contamination of the surface of the magnetic recording medium 10 can be effectively prevented.

[0408] The average film thickness of the lubricating layer 18 is preferably More preferably If the average film thickness of the lubricating layer 18 is more than 0.5nm, the lubricating layer 18 is not island-shaped or mesh-shaped but is formed with uniform film thickness. Therefore, the surface of the protective layer 17 can be coated with a high coverage rate by the lubricating layer 18. In addition, by making the average film thickness of the lubricating layer 18 less than 2.0nm, the lubricating layer 18 can be fully filmized, and the floating amount of the magnetic head can be fully reduced.

[0409] When the surface of the protective layer 17 is not covered with a sufficiently high coverage rate by the lubricating layer 18, the environmental substances adsorbed on the surface of the magnetic recording medium 10 penetrate the gaps of the lubricating layer 18 and invade the lower layer of the lubricating layer 18. The environmental substances that invade the lower layer of the lubricating layer 18 are adsorbed and combined with the protective layer 17 to generate pollutants. Furthermore, during magnetic recording and reproducing, the pollutants (agglomerated components) are attached (transferred) to the magnetic head as stains, causing damage to the magnetic head or reducing the magnetic recording and reproducing characteristics of the magnetic recording and reproducing device.

[0410] Environmental substances that cause pollutants to be generated include, for example, siloxane compounds (cyclic siloxane, linear siloxane), ionic impurities, hydrocarbons with high molecular weights such as octacosane, plasticizers such as dioctyl phthalate, etc. Metal ions included in ionic impurities include, for example, sodium ions, potassium ions, etc. Inorganic ions included in ionic impurities include, for example, chloride ions, bromide ions, nitrate ions, sulfate ions, ammonium ions, etc. Organic ions included in ionic impurities include, for example, oxalate ions, formate ions, etc.

[0411] "Method for forming a lubricating layer"

[0412] Examples of a method for forming the lubricating layer 18 include a method of preparing a magnetic recording medium in which each layer up to the protective layer 17 is formed on the substrate 11 , and applying a lubricating layer forming solution on the protective layer 17 and drying the solution.

[0413] The lubricant layer-forming solution is obtained by dispersing and dissolving the lubricant for a magnetic recording medium of the above-described embodiment in a solvent as necessary to obtain a viscosity and a concentration suitable for a coating method.

[0414] Examples of the solvent used in the lubricating layer forming solution include fluorine-based solvents such as Batler (registered trademark) XF (trade name, manufactured by Mitsui Dupont Fluoro Chemical Co., Ltd.) and / or Asahicrine (registered trademark) AE-3000 (trade name, manufactured by AGC Corporation).

[0415] The coating method of the lubricating layer forming solution is not particularly limited, and examples thereof include a spin coating method, a spray method, a paper coating method, and a dipping method.

[0416] When the dipping method is used, for example, the following method can be used. First, the substrate 11 on which each layer up to the protective layer 17 is formed is dipped in the lubricating layer forming solution placed in the dipping tank of the dipping coating device. Next, the substrate 11 is pulled out of the dipping tank at a predetermined speed. Thus, the lubricating layer forming solution is applied to the surface of the substrate 11 on the protective layer 17.

[0417] By using the dipping method, the lubricating layer-forming solution can be uniformly applied to the surface of the protective layer 17 , and the lubricating layer 18 can be formed on the protective layer 17 with a uniform film thickness.

[0418] In the present embodiment, it is preferable to perform heat treatment on the substrate 11 on which the lubricating layer 18 is formed. By performing the heat treatment, the adhesion between the lubricating layer 18 and the protective layer 17 is improved, and the adhesion between the lubricating layer 18 and the protective layer 17 is improved.

[0419] The heat treatment temperature is preferably 100 to 180° C. If the heat treatment temperature is 100° C. or higher, the effect of improving the adhesion between the lubricating layer 18 and the protective layer 17 is sufficiently obtained. In addition, by setting the heat treatment temperature to 180° C. or lower, thermal decomposition of the lubricating layer 18 can be prevented. The heat treatment time is preferably 10 to 120 minutes.

[0420] The magnetic recording medium 10 of the present embodiment has at least a magnetic layer 16, a protective layer 17, and a lubricating layer 18 sequentially arranged on a substrate 11. For the magnetic recording medium 10 of the present embodiment, a lubricating layer 18 containing the above-mentioned fluorine-containing ether compound is formed in contact with the protective layer 17. The lubricating layer 18 has excellent adhesion to the protective layer 17 and has an appropriate surface energy. Even if the thickness is thin, it can cover the surface of the protective layer 17 in a uniform coating state with a high coverage rate, and has good coverage. Therefore, for the magnetic recording medium 10 of the present embodiment, environmental substances that generate pollutants such as ionic impurities are prevented from invading from the gaps in the lubricating layer 18. In addition, the lubricating layer 18 in the magnetic recording medium 10 of the present embodiment is not easy to generate foreign matter (stains), and adhesion can be suppressed. Therefore, the magnetic recording medium 10 of the present embodiment has less pollutants on the surface, has excellent chemical resistance, and has good reliability and durability.

The results are shown in Tables 6 and 7. It should be noted that the average molecular weight of the synthesized compound is estimated to have a deviation of about 1 to 5 depending on the molecular weight distribution of the fluoropolyether used as a raw material of the compound, the difference in the operation when synthesizing the compound, etc.

[1221] [Table 7]

[1222]

[1223] Next, a lubricant layer forming solution was prepared by the method described below using the compounds obtained in Examples 1 to 40 and Comparative Examples 1 to 7. Furthermore, the lubricant layer of a magnetic recording medium was formed by the method described below using the obtained lubricant layer forming solution, thereby obtaining magnetic recording media of Examples 1 to 40 and Comparative Examples 1 to 7.

[1224] "Lubricating layer forming solution"

[1225] The fluorinated ether compounds obtained in Examples 1 to 40 and Comparative Examples 1 to 7 were dissolved in a fluorinated solvent, Batorel (registered trademark) XF (trade name, manufactured by Mitsui Dupont Fluoro Chemical Co., Ltd.), respectively, to form a film with a thickness of 1000 Å to 2000 Å on the protective layer. The solution was diluted with Batler XF in a manner of 100% to prepare a lubricating layer forming solution.

[1226] "Magnetic Recording Media"

[1227] A magnetic recording medium was prepared in which an adhesion layer, a soft magnetic layer, a first underlayer, a second underlayer, a magnetic layer, and a protective layer were sequentially provided on a substrate having a diameter of 65 mm. The protective layer was formed of carbon.

[1228] On the protective layer of the magnetic recording medium formed with each layer up to the protective layer, the lubricating layer forming solutions of Examples 1 to 40 and Comparative Examples 1 to 7 were applied by dipping, respectively. It should be noted that the dipping method was carried out under the conditions of dipping speed of 10 mm / sec, dipping time of 30 sec, and pulling speed of 1.2 mm / sec.

[1229] Then, the magnetic recording medium coated with the lubricating layer forming solution was placed in a thermostatic bath at 120° C. and heated for 10 minutes to remove the solvent in the lubricating layer forming solution, thereby forming a lubricating layer on the protective layer to obtain a magnetic recording medium.

[1230] (Film thickness measurement)

[1231] The lubricating layers of the magnetic recording media of Examples 1 to 40 and Comparative Examples 1 to 7 obtained in this manner were measured using FT-IR (trade name: Nicolet iS50, manufactured by Thermo Fisher Scientific) for the peak height in CF vibration expansion and contraction. Next, the film thickness of the lubricating layer was calculated from the measured value of the peak height in CF vibration expansion and contraction of the lubricating layer using a correlation formula obtained by the method described below.

[1232] (Calculation method of correlation formula)

[1233] A magnetic disk was prepared in which an adhesive layer, a soft magnetic layer, a first base layer, a second base layer, a magnetic layer and a protective layer were sequentially arranged on a substrate having a diameter of 65 mm. ( The film thickness of the interval) forms a lubricating layer respectively.

[1234] Then, for each disk with a lubricating layer formed, the film thickness increase from the disk surface without a lubricating layer was measured using an ellipsometer, and the film thickness of the lubricating layer was determined. In addition, for each disk with a lubricating layer formed, the peak height in CF vibration expansion was measured using FT-IR.

[1235] Furthermore, a correlation equation between the peak height obtained by FT-IR and the film thickness of the lubricating layer obtained by using an ellipsometer was determined.

[1236] Next, the magnetic recording media of Examples 1 to 40 and Comparative Examples 1 to 7 were evaluated by an adhesion property test and a chemical substance resistance test by the following methods.

[1237] (Adhesion property test)

[1238] The magnetic recording medium and the magnetic head were installed on the spin stand, and rotated under normal temperature and reduced pressure (about 250 Torr), so that the magnetic head was floated at a fixed point for 10 minutes. Then, the surface of the magnetic head opposite to the magnetic recording medium was analyzed using an ESCA (Electron Spectroscopy for Chemical Analysis) analysis device. The intensity (signal intensity (au)) of the peak derived from fluorine obtained by the analysis using the ESCA analysis device represents the amount of lubricant attached to the magnetic head. Using the obtained signal intensity, the adhesion characteristics were evaluated using the evaluation criteria shown below.

[1239] (Evaluation criteria for adhesion properties)

[1240] A (Excellent): Signal strength 160 or less (very little adhesion)

[1241] B (good): signal strength 161 to 300 (small amount of adhesion)

[1242] C (qualified): signal strength 301-1000 (high adhesion)

[1243] D (failed): signal strength 1001 or more (very high amount of adhesion)

[1244] (Chemical resistance test)

[1245] The contamination degree of the magnetic recording medium caused by the environmental substances that generate the contaminants in a high temperature environment was evaluated by the method shown below. Si ions were used as the environmental substances. The contamination degree of the magnetic recording medium caused by the contaminants generated by the environmental substances was evaluated by measuring the Si adsorption amount as the amount of the contaminants.

[1246] Specifically, the magnetic recording medium as the evaluation object was kept for 240 hours in the presence of siloxane-based Si rubber under a high temperature environment of 85°C and 0% humidity. Next, the Si adsorption amount present on the surface of the magnetic recording medium was analyzed and measured using secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS), and the degree of contamination caused by Si ions was evaluated using the Si adsorption amount. The evaluation of the Si adsorption amount was evaluated based on the following evaluation criteria using the numerical value when the result of the Si adsorption amount of Comparative Example 1 was set to 1.00. The results are shown in Tables 6 and 7.

[1247] (Evaluation criteria for chemical resistance)

[1248] A (Excellent): less than 0.70

[1249] B (good): 0.70 or more and less than 0.80

[1250] C (pass): 0.80 or more and less than 1.00

[1251] D (failure): 1.00 or above

[1252] As shown in Table 6, the evaluations of the adhesion property test and the chemical resistance test of the magnetic recording media of Examples 1 to 40 were all A or B, and at least one of them was A. Therefore, it was confirmed that the magnetic recording media of Examples 1 to 40 had a high adhesion suppression effect and high chemical resistance.

[1253] This is presumably because the compounds (1A) to (1T) and (2A) to (2T) forming the lubricating layers of the magnetic recording media of Examples 1 to 40 are less likely to generate polar groups that are not bonded to the functional groups (active sites) present on the protective layer. In other words, this is presumably because the terminal groups R 1 and R 5 The polar group in the linking group and the R bonded to the tetrasubstituted carbon atom 3 and R 4 The primary hydroxyl groups of the lubricating layer are closely attached to the protective layer with a high probability. As a result, the close adhesion of the lubricating layer to the protective layer becomes good, the attachment of the lubricating layer to the magnetic head is suppressed, and the involvement of pollutants caused by polar groups contained in the lubricating layer that are not closely attached to the protective layer is suppressed. Therefore, it is estimated that excellent chemical resistance is obtained and an excellent adhesion inhibition effect is obtained.

[1254] In addition, the magnetic recording media of Examples 1 to 9, 13 to 19, 21 to 29, and 33 to 39 were evaluated as A in the adhesion property test, indicating that the adhesion suppression effect was particularly excellent. This is presumably because the magnetic recording media of the above Examples have the advantages of using R 1 and R 5 is any one of the formulas (4-1) to (4-3), and X 1 is a hydroxyl group or a group having an amide bond, R 3 and R 4 Since the lubricating layer is formed of a compound having the same organic group as shown, the adhesion of the lubricating layer to the protective layer is good and the lubricating layer is not likely to float off the protective layer.

[1255] Furthermore, the evaluation of the chemical substance resistance test of the magnetic recording media of Examples 1, 2, 5, 7, 8, 10 to 12, 16, 17, 20 to 22, 25, 27, 28, 30 to 32, 36, 37, and 40 was A, which was good.

[1256] The magnetic recording media of Examples 10, 11, 30, and 31 are made of R 1 and R 5is formula (4-1) or (4-2), and X 1 Therefore, it is estimated that the magnetic recording media of Examples 10, 11, 30, and 31 have good adhesion to the protective layer due to the π-π interaction between the alkenyl groups in the compound forming the lubricating layer and the protective layer, resulting in good chemical resistance.

[1257] On the other hand, as shown in Table 7, Comparative Examples 1 to 7 having lubricating layers formed using any of Compounds (4A) to (4G) were evaluated as C or D in the adhesion property test and the chemical substance resistance test, which were inferior to Examples 1 to 40.

[1258] This is presumably because, in Comparative Examples 1 to 7, the lubricating layer was formed using a fluorine-containing ether compound that did not satisfy the formula (1).

[1259] Specifically, the magnetic recording media of Comparative Examples 1 and 6 have lubricating layers formed using compounds (4A) and (4F), respectively. The linking group disposed between two or three perfluoropolyether chains of compounds (4A) and (4F) has one secondary hydroxyl group. Therefore, it is estimated that in Comparative Examples 1 and 6, the secondary hydroxyl group in the linking group is not sufficiently adhered to the protective layer, and the adhesion characteristics and chemical resistance are deteriorated.

[1260] The magnetic recording media of Comparative Examples 3 and 7 have lubricating layers formed using compounds (4C) and (4G), respectively. The linking groups disposed between two or three perfluoropolyether chains of compounds (4C) and (4G) have two secondary hydroxyl groups. Therefore, it is estimated that in Comparative Examples 3 and 7, the secondary hydroxyl groups in the linking groups are not sufficiently adhered to the protective layer, and the adhesion characteristics and chemical resistance are deteriorated.

[1261] The magnetic recording media of Comparative Examples 2, 4 and 5 respectively have lubricating layers formed using compounds (4B), (4D) and (4E). The connecting groups disposed between the two perfluoropolyether chains of compounds (4B), (4D) and (4E) have both secondary hydroxyl groups and primary hydroxyl groups. Although the primary hydroxyl groups with high adsorption capacity among the hydroxyl groups contained in the connecting groups can be combined with the protective layer, the secondary hydroxyl groups with low mobility are not sufficiently close to the protective layer due to their low adsorption capacity. As a result, it is presumed that in Comparative Examples 2, 4 and 5, the adhesion properties are poor, and the involvement of pollutants caused by the hydroxyl groups that are not close to the protective layer occurs, resulting in poor resistance to chemical substances.

[1262] Industrial Availability
