PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a production method of molybdenum disulfide powder which includes substantially spherical molybdenum disulfide particles generally formed by coagulation of flaky sub-particles, and which has fluidity and exhibits uniform density.SOLUTION: A production method of molybdenum disulfide powder 10 includes: a step to provide a molybdenum disulfide precursor material feed material 18; a step to provide a liquid feed material 20; a step to provide a binder feed material 22; a step to form a slurry 26 by combining the molybdenum disulfide precursor material 18 with the liquid 20 and the binder 22; a step to feed the slurry 26 in a high temperature gas flow; and a step to recover the molybdenum disulfide powder 10. In relation thereto, the molybdenum disulfide powder 10 includes substantially spherical molybdenum disulfide particles generally formed by coagulation of flaky sub-particles.
