Coating & 

Paint

A small addition of BENTEC Organoclay can greatly enhance the rheological properties of the paint system. These properties prevent pigment settling and sagging on vertical surfaces to ensure the proper thickness of the coating is applied. They also ensure good leveling for the removal of brush marks.
Storage stability is ensured even with high temperatures. BENTEC Organoclays prevents water separation. Gloss is not affected due to the low levels of addition.

Road Marking Paints

Road marking (also called line marking or pavement marking) can be applied using various materials and paints dependent on the surface and mark being made. These materials each have different properties, such as anti-skid, reflectivity, longevity and performance.

The materials most frequently used in road and floor markings are:

  • Thermoplastic

  • Water-based paint

  • MMA

  • Epoxy resin

Thermoplastic road marking paint is the most favoured material for road marking due to it being hard-wearing and reflective, making it ideal for high-traffic roads and highways. It is applied to the road surface by spray after heating to 180 degrees Celsius, which is why it’s sometimes called hot melt marking paint or hot tape.

For extra surface friction and reflectivity, glass beads and fillers are often added to the paint to improve safety. Pre-formed thermoplastic tape can also be used for line marking.
