Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) offers the lowest COF of any internal lubricant, allowing for significantly lower wear rates than traditional plastics. Silicone behaves primarily as a boundary lubricant, and significantly reduces wear rates and COF when formulated into thermoplastics at low levels. Molybdenum disulfide is typically formulated with nylon resins to reduce wear rates.
