Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain a sliding member of an electrical appliance, such as a gear, improved in low-noise performance, molding precision, abrasion resistance, sliding lubricity, etc., by molding a resin material based on a polyacetal and containing a polyolefin and carbon black. CONSTITUTION:The title member is formed by molding a resin material comprising 60-94pts.wt. polyacetal (A), 4-30pts.wt. polyolefin (B) (preferably, high- density polyethylene) and 2-10pts.wt. carbon black (C) wherein the total of components A, B and C is 100pts.wt. Although a polyacetal excellent in the balance among various properties such as molding precision and fatigue resistance is chiefly used as a conventional molding material for small precision gears of electric appliances, they produce much noise when used as gears which rotate at high speeds under high loads. By using the resin material comprising said components A, B and C, a low-noise sliding member improved in molding precision, abrasion resistance and sliding lubricity can be produced.
