Abstract:
The sliding member includes a base and a coating layer formed on the base, in which the coating layer includes a particle aggregate containing first particles of a precipitation-hardening copper alloy. The method for manufacturing the sliding member includes the step of spraying a first powder of the precipitation-hardening copper alloy or a mixed powder containing the first powder and a second powder harder than the first powder onto the base in an un melted state, so as to form the coating layer on the base.

Claim (Index 20):
A method for manufacturing a sliding member that comprises:\n a base; a coating layer formed on the base; and an intermediate layer that is formed in at least a part of an interface between the base and the coating layer and comprises at least one of a diffusion layer and an intermetallic compound layer,\n wherein the coating layer includes a particle aggregate containing first particles of a precipitation-hardening copper alloy or a particle aggregate containing the first particles and second particles harder than the first particles, the method comprising the step of: \n spraying a first powder of the precipitation-hardening copper alloy or a mixed powder containing the first powder and a second powder harder than the first powder onto the base in an unmelted state, so as to form the coating layer on the base,\n wherein in spraying the first powder or the mixed powder onto the base, the first powder or the mixed powder is sprayed onto the base at such a speed that makes the first powder be sprayed onto the base to form a plastically deformed portion in at least one of the base and the coating layer.
