Optical information recording medium and method for manufacturing the same

A method for manufacturing an optical information recording medium comprising a reflective film, a recording film and a protective film on a substrate, wherein the protective film is provided in a surface layer on a side opposite of the substrate, the method comprising:

• spin-coating, onto an outer layer of at least one selected from the substrate and the protective film, an application solution comprising a hard coat resin material, and forming a hard coat resin film by curing it;
• spin-coating a chemisorptive film material comprising an organic silane compound represented by the general formula R4-m-nSiR′mXn—(wherein R is a group including a carbon chain with a carbon number of 3 to 25, X is a halogeno group, an alkoxy group, an isocyanate group or an ester group, n is 1, 2 or 3;
• n is 1, 2 or 3;
• R′ is hydrogen or an alkyl group with a carbon number of 1 to 3;
• and m is 0, 1 or 2) while the resin film surface is dry;
• and
• causing an elimination reaction between reactive groups of the organic silane compound and active hydrogen of the hard coat resin film surface, thereby covalently bonding the organic silane molecules as a thin film to the hard coat layer.
