A composition and method for reducing the coefficient of friction and required pulling force of a wire or cable are provided. A composition of aqueous emulsion is provided that is environmentally friendly, halogen free and solvent free. The composition is compatible with various types of insulating materials and may be applied after the wire or cable is cooled and also by spraying or submerging the wire or cable in a bath. The composition contains lubricating agents that provide lower coefficient of friction for wire or cable installation and continuous wire or cable surface lubrication thereafter.

The present invention relates to a lubricated system comprising: a) a component comprising a first surface which is a diamond-like carbon (DLC) surface; b) a component comprising a second surface; and c) a lubricant formulation interposed between the first surface and second surface. The lubricant formulation comprises: i) a base stock; ii) a molybdenum compound; iii) an organic polymer comprising a hydrophobic polymeric sub unit selected from polyesters and functionalised polyolefins and a hydrophilic polymeric sub unit selected from polyethers; and iv) optionally, other additives. The combination of the molybdenum compound and the organic polymer in the lubricant formulation reduces the wear on one or more of the surfaces in the lubricated system when compared with using the molybdenum containing friction modifier alone.
