The present disclosure provides a composition. The composition includes (A) an ethylene-based polymer and (B) from 5 wt % to 15 wt % of a metal hydroxide component, based on the total weight of the composition. The metal hydroxide component includes a metal hydroxide having an aspect ratio greater than, or equal to, 10. The composition has a thermal conductivity greater than 0.52 W m−K−and a density less than, or equal to 1.02 g/cc. The present disclosure also provides a coated conductor including a non-metal conductor and a coating on the conductor, the coating containing the composition.
