    Glass beads composed of soda lime glass are essential for providing retroreflectivity in many kinds of road surface markings. [1] Retroreflectivity occurs when incident light from vehicles is refracted within glass beads that are imbedded in road surface markings and then reflected back into the driver's field of view.

    The binder is a combination of silica sol and water glass. The organic fraction is limited to 5 mass percent similar to dispersion silicate paint allowing for chemical setting and retaining of the silicate specific advantages. The sol silicate paint allows use on non-mineral plaster. [4] For these the bonding occurs chemically and physically.

  9. Thermoplastic road marking paint - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermoplastic_road_marking...

    Thermoplastic road marking paint, also called hot melt marking paint, is a kind of powder paint. When applied as road surface markings, a hot melt kettle is used to heat it to 200 °C (392 °F) to melt the powder, after which it is sprayed on the road surface. After cooling, the paint forms a thick polymer layer, which is wear-resistant, bright ...
