Product Details
Durable and Reflective Thermoplastic Paint for Road Markings Fast
Setting Various Colors
Product Description
Thermoplastic 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.
Features of Thermoplastic Road Marking Paint:
Composition: Made of synthetic resin, glass beads, pigments, and fillers,
providing durability and reflectivity.
Application Method: Applied in a molten state (heated to 180-200°C) via spray,
screed, or extrusion, ensuring strong surface bonding.
Retro-Reflectivity: Contains glass beads that reflect light, enhancing visibility in
low-light or adverse weather conditions.
Thickness: Typically applied at 1.5-3 mm, creating a robust, long-lasting
marking.
Fast Setting: Solidifies within minutes after application, allowing quick
reopening of roads.
Color Options: Available in white, yellow, and other colors for various road
marking purposes (e.g., lanes, symbols).
Durability: Resists abrasion, weathering, and UV degradation, lasting 3-5
years under heavy traffic.
Skid Resistance: Textured surface with additives improves grip for vehicles and
pedestrians.
Adhesion: Strong bonding to asphalt, concrete, and other surfaces,
minimizing peeling or cracking.
Eco-Friendly: Often solvent-free with low VOC emissions; some formulations are
recyclable.
Temperature Stability: Performs well in extreme heat or cold, maintaining integrity
across climates.
Customizable: Can be formulated for specific needs, such as high-reflectivity
or enhanced durability in harsh conditions.
These features ensure thermoplastic road marking paint is highly
effective for durable, safe, and visible road markings.
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.
