A sliding component includes a pair of seal rings which are arranged to rotate relative to each other. The seal rings have sliding surfaces, respectively, which are facing each other. The sliding surfaces are provided with: a land continuously extending in a circumferential direction; inward recessed portions recessed in an axial direction, extending to a radially inner side, and open to the radially inner side; and outward recessed portions recessed in the axial direction, extending to a radially outer side, and open to the radially outer side.

Sliding component

Provided is sliding components capable of stably obtaining a low-friction effect even in a non-lubricated environment. Sliding components and have sliding surfaces and performing relative sliding. A carbon film in which a polymer structure is dispersed is formed on the sliding surface of the sliding component. The proportion of the polymer structure dispersed in the carbon film is such that an extinction coefficient of 0.2 or less and a refractive index of 1.5 to 2.0 are satisfied in a wavelength range of 550 nm of spectroscopic ellipsometry.
