[Means for Resolution] The lubricant composition contains at least one kind of compound represented by the following Formula (1). In the formula, X represents a cyclic group that may be substituted, and Y represents a single bond or a linking group having a valency of 2 or more. Here, at least one of X and Y includes 1 or more polar groups such as a hydroxyl group; Z represents a linking group having a valency of 2 or more and constituted with a carbon atom (C), a fluorine atom (F), and 1 or 2 kinds of arbitrary atoms (here, a hydrogen atom is excluded); n represents a real number of 1 to 10; m represents a real number of 0 to 1; and s and t independently represent a real number of 1 or greater.
