Coolant compressor and refrigeration device using same

Abstract

A refrigerant compressor reserves lubricating oil with a viscosity of VG2 to VG100 in a sealed container, and accommodates therein an electric component and a compression component which is driven by the electric component and compresses a refrigerant. The compression component includes at least one slide member comprising a base material 171 made of an iron-based material and an oxide coating film 170 provided on a surface of the base material 171. The oxide coating film 170 includes: a portion containing diiron trioxide (Fe2O3), in a region which is closer to an outermost surface of the oxide coating film; and a silicon containing portion containing silicon (Si) which is more in quantity than silicon (Si) of the base material 171, in a region which is closer to the base material 171.
