Durable and Quick Setting Thermoplastic Paint for High-Traffic Roads High Visibility and Easy Application

Product Description

Hot melt road marking paint, also known as hot-applied thermoplastic paint, is a durable coating used for pavement markings. It consists of synthetic resins, glass beads, pigments, and fillers, applied in a molten state (180–220°C) using specialized equipment. Once cooled, it forms a thick, long-lasting layer that adheres strongly to asphalt or concrete.
Key Features:
  • Durability: Resists wear, weather, and heavy traffic, lasting 3–5 years or more.
  • Visibility: Contains glass beads for retroreflectivity, ensuring high visibility at night.
  • Quick Setting: Hardens rapidly after application, minimizing road closure time.
  • Applications: Used for lane lines, crosswalks, arrows, and other pavement markings.
It’s ideal for high-traffic roads due to its toughness and low maintenance compared to regular paint.

How to Apply Thermoplastic Paint:

1. Prepare the Surface:

  • Clean the Road Surface: The area should be clean and dry. Remove dirt, debris, dust, oil, and any loose material using a broom, pressure washer, or cleaning equipment.
  • Dry the Surface: Make sure the surface is free of moisture before applying the paint.

2. Heat the Paint:

  • Use a Heating System: Hot melt road marking paint needs to be heated to around 180–200°C (356–392°F). Use a dedicated melting pot or heated tank to melt the paint.
  • Maintain Proper Temperature: Keep the paint at the right temperature to ensure even application. It should be fluid enough to spread but not too hot to cause burns or uneven application.

3. Apply the Paint:

  • Choose the Right Equipment: Use a road marking machine (manual or automatic) designed for hot melt paint. These machines often have an applicator that controls the flow of the paint.
  • Apply Evenly: Pour or spray the melted paint onto the prepared surface in a uniform layer. The paint will begin to solidify as it cools, so work efficiently.
  • Marking Width and Thickness: Depending on the machine, adjust the settings to achieve the correct width and thickness for the lines or symbols you are marking.

4. Allow Cooling and Solidification:

  • Cooling Time: After application, the paint will solidify relatively quickly as it cools down. This can take just a few minutes, depending on the weather and temperature.
  • Curing: Full curing might take a few hours. Ensure that traffic doesn’t pass over the markings too soon to prevent smudging or damaging the lines.

5. Clean Equipment:

  • Clean the Machine: After use, clean your equipment thoroughly, especially the nozzle and hoses, to prevent the paint from hardening inside the machine.

Features of Hot Melt (Hot-Applied) Thermoplastic Road Marking Paint:
  1. Composition: Made of synthetic resins, glass beads, pigments, and fillers, formulated for heat application (180–220°C).
  2. Application Method: Applied in a molten state using specialized equipment (e.g., extruders or spray systems), forming a thick layer (1.5–3 mm).
  3. Retroreflectivity: Contains glass beads that reflect light, enhancing nighttime visibility.
  4. Quick Setting: Solidifies rapidly upon cooling, allowing roads to reopen within minutes.
  5. Color Options: Available in white, yellow, and other colors for various marking needs.
  6. Versatility: Suitable for asphalt, concrete, and other surfaces, with formulations for different climates.
Advantages of Hot Melt Thermoplastic Road Marking Paint:
  1. Exceptional Durability: Lasts 3–5 years or longer, resisting wear from heavy traffic, UV rays, and harsh weather.
  2. High Visibility: Retroreflective beads ensure clear visibility in low-light or adverse conditions, improving road safety.
  3. Cost-Effective: Long lifespan reduces the need for frequent reapplication, lowering maintenance costs.
  4. Strong Adhesion: Bonds firmly to pavement, minimizing peeling or fading.
  5. Fast Application: Quick-drying properties reduce traffic disruption during application.
  6. Environmentally Friendly: Many formulations are solvent-free, reducing VOC emissions.
  7. Customizable: Supports complex designs like arrows, symbols, or textured markings for enhanced functionality.
  8. Low Maintenance: Resists abrasion, oil, and chemicals, requiring minimal upkeep.
Hot melt thermoplastic paint is ideal for high-traffic roads, highways, and urban areas due to its longevity, safety features, and efficiency.
