Abstract:
A piston ring is used for a reciprocating compressor. In the piston ring, polytetrafluoroethylene and polyetheretherketone or polyimide account for 50% or more by mass in total. The piston ring does not contain polyphenylene sulfide. The piston ring has a tensile strength within a range of more than 15 MPa and less than 100 MPa.
