Abstract

Abstract ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE Carboxyfunctional silicone containing thermo-plastics are disclosed which have enhanced properties, such as lubricity, internal release and wear resistance, as compared to the thermoplastics per se. These improved thermoplastics are useful inter alia in bearings, tape cartridges and cassettes, phonograph records, toys and containers.
