A loudspeaker comprising a frame, a voice coil assembly disposed within the frame, a magnet assembly disposed within the frame and a first suspension element having an outer edge and an inner edge, wherein the outer edge is coupled to the voice coil assembly and the inner edge is coupled to the magnet assembly. An inner sheet of the stack has formed therein a pair of bifurcated projections, wherein at least one first apex faces in one direction and at least one second apex faces in the opposite direction. These robust and non-corrosive fluorosurfactants 42, which consists of a hydrophilic chain 40 attached to a hydrophobic fluorocarbon tail 41, are applied by nebulization and replace the more complex lubricating systems, including highly reactive PFDA lubricants stored in polymer getters, to keep the parts from sticking.
