    Abstract: A problem is to provide a sliding member capable of improving friction characteristics under an environment of a lubricant containing Mo, and a production method therefor. A solution is a sliding member 10, wherein a sliding portion 11 is formed of a metallic material, and the sliding member 10 has, at a surface layer part of the sliding portion 11, a Ti-containing thermally sprayed coating 12 formed by thermally spraying, as a thermal spraying material, a metallic material containing Ti as a composition. The sliding member 10 slides under the environment of the lubricant containing Mo as an additive, in which active Ti exposed on a surface by sliding accelerates decomposition reaction of the additive contained in the lubricant to form a molybdenum disulfide-containing low-friction coating having low friction on the surface of the sliding portion 11.
