High density information record lubricants

Claim 1

In a high density information record adapted for use with a playback stylus to effect recovery of signals occupying a bandwidth of at least several megahertz when relative motion at a desired rate is established between said record and said stylus, said record comprising a disc of a conductive material containing an information track constituted by a surface relief pattern in said track to accommodate recovery of signals of said bandwidth upon establishment of relative motion at said rate, said record coated wtih a methylalkylsiloxane lubricant having the formula ##STR7## wherein R 1 and R 2 are alkyl groups of 4-20 carbon atoms, x is an integer of 2-4, y is an integer of 0-2 and wherein the sum of x plus y is 4 or less, the improvement which comprises adding to said lubricant an hydroxylated amine compound of the formula ##STR8## wherein R 3 is hydrogen, lower alkyl or hydroxyalkyl; R 4 is R 6 A wherein R 6 is an alkyl group of 1-5 carbon atoms and A is hydroxyl or carboxyl; R 5 can be R 7 A wherein R 7 is a straight chain alkyl group of 1-10 carbon atoms and A has the meaning given above or can be R 7 A-B-R 8 wherein R 7 and A have the meanings given above, B is a linking group which can be --O-- or --C═C-- and R 8 is an alkyl group of from about 6-25 carbon atoms.
