Actually it is a mixture of different dielectrics.
The outer layer is high quality DuPont PVC, which is soft and easy to handle. the actual metal itself are insulated (some strand by strand) via a PVC jacket over each assembly, then some strands are insulated individually via teflon and voids in the braid are stuffed with cotten stuffings.
If you take a look at the dissected view, you can see some strands' insulation are white with a bit of translucent feel. That's teflon, and the white strands of fabric are cotten.
