The invention concerns a lubricating composition, in the form of an oil-in-water emulsion, based on siloxane and not releasing hydrogen comprising: (a) a polydiorganosiloxane oil non-reactive to the lubricating properties having a dynamic viscosity of the order of 5.10<-2> to 30.10<2> Pa.s at 25 DEG C; (b) a polyorganosiloxane resin bearing, before emulsification, condensable hydroxyl substituents and comprising before emulsification at least two syloxyl units selected among those of formula (R0)3SiO1/2(M); (R0)2SiO2/2(D); R0SiO3/2(T) and SiO4/2(Q), one at least of said units being a T or Q unit, formulae wherein: R0 represents a monovalent organic substituent, the average number per molecule of organic radicals R0 for a silicon atom ranging between 1 and 2; and said resin having a weight content of hydroxyl substituents ranging between 0.1 and 10 wt.%, and, preferably between 0.2 and 5 wt.%; (c) a crosslinking agent soluble in the silicone phase comprising at least two functions capable of reacting with the polyorganosiloxane resin (b); a condensation catalyst capable of catalysing the reaction of constituent (b) with constituent (c); (e) a surfactant; and (f) water. |
