A compressor includes a swash plate, and a shoe connected to an outer
periphery of the swash plate. A surface of the swash plate slides upon a
flat surface of the shoe. A sliding film is applied to the surface of the
swash plate. The sliding film is formed of binder resin which contains a
solid lubricant and titanium oxide powder. This allows the surface of the
swash plate and the flat surface of the shoe to smoothly slide upon each
other.
