Road marking materials - Paint, thermoplastic and cold plastic materials - Physical properties

This specification outlines the physical characteristics required for various road marking materials, encompassing pigments as well as both thermoplastic and cold plastic compounds. It defines essential criteria to ensure the performance and durability of these materials when applied to road surfaces. The document details parameters such as dimensional stability, color properties, and resistance to environmental factors under standard testing conditions. These guidelines are critical for manufacturers and quality control personnel to verify that road marking products meet necessary technical benchmarks. The text provides a structured approach for evaluating material samples through specific laboratory tests, ensuring consistency across different production batches. By establishing clear measurement methods, it facilitates international trade and compatibility in road infrastructure projects. Adherence to these parameters supports uniformity in traffic safety systems and aids in maintaining high-quality standards for pavement markings globally.
