A swash plate compressor comprising:
- a housing that includes a swash-plate chamber and a plurality of cylinder bores;
- a drive shaft that is supported by the housing and is rotatable within the swash-plate chamber;
- a swash plate that is disposed within the swash-plate chamber and is synchronously rotatable with the drive shaft;
- shoes that slide on the swash plate;
- a piston that is allowed by the shoes to make strokes that depend on an inclination angle of the swash plate to reciprocate within the corresponding cylinder bore to compress refrigerant that contains lubricating oil;
- a first slide layer formed between the swash plate and the shoes;
- and
- a second slide layer formed between the cylinder bores and the piston, wherein
- the first slide layer and the second slide layer each contain binder resin and solid lubricant,
- the solid lubricant of the first slide layer contains ultra high molecular weight polyethylene, and the solid lubricant of the second slide layer contains fluorine resin, and
- the first slide layer has a smaller contact angle of the lubricating oil than the second slide layer.
