Abstract
A swash plate of a swash plate-type compressor is covered with a resin-based coating layer containing 5 to 60 mass % of spherical graphite particles having an average particle diameter of 5 to 50 μm, the balance being one or more species selected from polyimide resin and polyamide-imide resin. The spherical graphite particles excepting minute particles having a particle diameter 0.5 times or smaller the average particle diameter, have an average shape coefficient (Y) falling within a range of 1 to 4, and 70% or more in number of the spherical graphite particles have a shape coefficient (Y) within a range of 1 to 1.5,=total[{/4π/4πwherein 'total' indicates that a value in [ ] is totalized for number 'i', “PM” indicates the circumferential length of one particle, “A” indicates a cross sectional area of one particle, and “i” indicates the measurement number.
