Abstract

The optical surface analyzer (OSA) was found to be an excellent tool to examine the lubricant migration rate on thin film disks. Using the OSA it was found that the rate of lubricant migration increased as molecular weight decreased. An AM type perfluoropolyether with an aromatic end group and Z-Dol were also observed to have different migration rates for the same molecular weight. The migration rate of AM lubricant was increased significantly by the presence of X-1P as an additive in the lubricant system.
