An aromatic or aromatic-like group(s) containing lubricant configured to be adsorbed by a magnetic recording media is formed from

(Ar).sub.m(R1.sub.oR.sub.fR2.sub.p).sub.q

where Ar is an aromatic group, polyaromatic hydrocarbon (PAH), annulene, cycloalkane or heterocycle, m=1-10, R1 and R2 are moieties containing first and second polar groups, respectively, R.sub.f is a perfluorinated polyether, o=1-10, p=0-10, and q=1-10. The first or second polar group may independently be hydroxyl, phosphonic acid, silanol or carboxylic acid. In an embodiment, the lubricant has the formula:

##STR00001##

where Ar is a system form d from a PAH, armulene, cycloalkane or heterocycle, X, Y and Z can independently be hydroxyl, a phosphonic acid moiety, a silanol or a carboxylic acid moiety, and where R.sub.f may be CF.sub.2O(CF.sub.2CF.sub.2).sub.nCF.sub.2 where n is 1 to 100. Synthesizing the lubricant may entail reacting parabromophenol with (Ar).sub.m(R1.sub.oR.sub.fR2.sub.p).sub.q.

The object of the present invention is to provide a foreign substance removing lubricant composition having high foreign substance removing effects and being capable of improving the lubricating properties as compared to conventional lubricant compositions, a foreign substance removing lubricant composition applied member, and a method for using the foreign substance removing lubricant composition. The foreign substance removing lubricant composition of the present invention comprises a perfluoroalkyl group containing compound (S) having a perfluoroalkyl group or a fluoropolyether containing compound. As a result, foreign substance removing effects can be enhanced, and the lubricating properties can be improved as compared to the conventional lubricant compositions.
