Abstract (en)

A refrigerant compressor for using HFC 134a as a refrigerant and a refrigerator oil such as polyether type oil, polyester type oil, or similar type compatible therewith is disclosed. The refrigerant compressor includes a component of iron type substrate having a compound layer mainly made of iron sulphide on sliding portions such as sliding parts and the shaft in the compression mechanism. In a rotary type compressor, the sliding blade can have such a compound layer at its sliding surface. The hardness of the compound layer mainly made of iron sulphide can be considerable, substantially reducing metal contact and preventing adhesive abrasion; the primary cause of abrasion of sliding portions. Since such a compound layer essentially consisting of iron sulphide is stable under moist conditions, even if used in conjunction with polyether type oil, polyester type oil, or similar types of oil and HFC 134a, corrosion and abrasion through dissolution of the compound layer can also be largely prevented. <IMAGE>
