Lubricant & Flow Agent:
Stearic acid acts as a lubricant in thermoplastic road marking paint, improving the flow of the molten material during application. This ensures smoother and more uniform road markings.
Anti-caking Agent:
It helps prevent the thermoplastic components from clumping together during storage and transportation, maintaining the material’s usability over extended periods.
Stabilizer
It aids in stabilizing the mixture by preventing pigments and other components from separating or degrading over time.
Improved Adhesion
Stearic acid contributes to the adhesion of the road marking paint to the asphalt or concrete surface, enhancing durability and resistance to wear from traffic.
