A polymeric liner for a medical joint implant constructed to be positioned in between a head (or a top plate) and a stem (or a base plate) of the medical joint implant. The polymeric liner is composed of at least one component. The at least one component includes a polymeric matrix having a polymeric material having a volume concentration of between 95%-99.9% v/v (volume per volume) and at least one metal chalcogenides or dichalcogenides nanotube nanoparticle having a volume concentration of between 0.1%-5% v/v. The at least one metal chalcogenides or dichalcogenides nanoparticle is distributed within the polymeric matrix, and selected from the group consisting of: TiS2, TiSe2, TiTe2, WS2, WSe2, WTe2, MoS2, MoSe2, MoTe2, SnS2, SnSe2, SnTe2, RuS2, RuSe2, RuTe2, GaS, GaSe, GaTe, InS, InSe, HfS2, ZrS2, VS2, ReS2, and NbS2.
