Abstract
An iron-based sintered alloy for sliding member, in which seizure resistance is improved, and a production method therefor, are provided. The iron-based sintered alloy for sliding member consists of, by mass %, 10 to 30% of Cu, 0.2 to 2.0 % of C, 0.03 to 0.9 % of Mn, 0.36 to 3.65% of S, and the balance of Fe and inevitable impurities in the overall composition. The iron-based sintered alloy for sliding member exhibits a metallic structure in which copper phases and pores are dispersed in the matrix that includes mainly a martensite structure and sulfide particles are dispersed in the matrix and the copper phases. The sulfide particles are dispersed at 1 to 30 vol. % with respect to the matrix.
