Description:

Thermoplastic pavement marking material is a 100% solid, environmentally and user safe compound containing pigments, glass beads, binder, and filler which becomes liquid when heated. Pigments provide color and opacity; fillers, such as calcium carbonate, add bulk; and binders, consisting of plasticizers and resins, provide toughness, flexibility and bond strength while holding all the components together. Intermixed and drop-on glass beads provide retroreflectivity for nighttime visibility of the pavement marking. There are two types of hot-applied thermoplastic.
