Product Details
Thermoplastic Road Marking Paint for Road Surfaces with Quick
Hardening Time and Strong Adhesion
Product Description
Thermoplastic road marking paint, also known as hot melt marking
paint, is a type of powder paint used for road surface markings.
When heated to approximately 200°C (392°F), it melts and is applied
to road surfaces, where it quickly hardens upon cooling to form a
durable, wear-resistant, and reflective layer.
Composition:
The paint typically consists of:
Synthetic Resins: Provide thermoplasticity, enabling the paint to dry quickly and
adhere strongly to the road surface.
Glass Beads: Enhance reflectivity, improving nighttime visibility.
Pigments: Offer color and opacity; common colors include white (using
titanium dioxide) and yellow (using organic pigments).
Fillers: Such as calcium carbonate and sand, which contribute to the
paint's mechanical strength and wear resistance.

Steps to Use Thermoplastic Road Marking Paint
1. Surface Preparation
- Ensure the road surface is clean, dry, and free of dust, dirt, grease, or moisture for proper adhesion.
- For old roads, remove any loose paint or debris.
- If necessary, apply a primer to improve adhesion, especially on concrete surfaces.
2. Heating the Thermoplastic Paint
- Use a preheater or thermoplastic melting kettle to heat the paint to around 180-200°C (356-392°F).
- Stir continuously to maintain an even consistency and prevent
burning.
3. Application of the Paint
- Hand or Machine Application:
- Screed, Extrusion, or Spray Machine – For large road markings, use a specialized road marking machine.
- Hand-Pushed Applicator – Suitable for smaller projects or touch-ups.
- Apply the molten thermoplastic evenly on the road surface at a
thickness of 1.5 to 3 mm.
4. Adding Glass Beads
- While the paint is still hot, sprinkle glass beads on top to enhance reflectivity.
- Some thermoplastic paints contain pre-mixed glass beads, but additional beads may still be applied manually or
automatically.
5. Cooling and Curing
- The marking cools and hardens within 2-5 minutes, forming a durable and traffic-resistant layer.
- Allow sufficient time for full curing before opening to traffic.
6. Quality Check
- Inspect for proper thickness, adhesion, and reflectivity.
- Remove excess material and touch up any defects.
