Abstract

A sliding member includes a base layer including soft particles made of a soft material softer than a matrix and deposited in the matrix, and a soft layer made of the soft material formed on a surface of the base layer. A boundary portion is formed between crystal grains that have a unique crystal grain structure of the soft particles and crystal grains that have a unique crystal grain structure of the soft layer. An anodic oxidation film of the soft material is formed on the boundary portion.
