Abstract
A self-lubricating polymer composition is provided. The self-lubricating composition comprises a polymer matrix formed from a homopolymer or copolymer selected from the group consisting of a polyamide, a polyester, a polycarbonate, and combinations thereof, and a particulate siloxane slip agent substantially homogeneously distributed in the polymer. Also provided are self-lubricating articles, such as electrical wire and optical cable, coated with the self-lubricating polymer composition.
