Molding material for sliding member, and sliding member

Abstract

A molding material for a sliding member, the molding material being superior in processability and sliding properties, and a sliding member formed from the molding material for a sliding member are provided. The molding material for a sliding member contains a phenol resin, a boron compound, an elastomer and a filler. The elastomer preferably contains at least one selected from the group consisting of are acrylonitrile butadiene rubber, a urethane rubber and a silicone rubber, and more preferably an acrylonitrile butadiene rubber among them. The boron compound preferably contains at least one selected from the group consisting of boric acid, zinc borate and boron oxide, and the filler preferably contains a carbon fiber. Furthermore, the content of the elastomer with respect to 100 parts by mass of the carbon fiber is preferably no less than 5 parts by mass and no greater than 50 parts by mass.
