It is contained at a ratio of 15% to 18% by mass (3 types 2) or 25% by mass or more (3 types 3). Several types of glass beads are used, and the center particle size is included in the range of 150 to 480 μm (see glass beads for road marking paints in JISR3301). Industrially, a plurality of types of glass beads having a particle size range of 105 to 850 μm are used.

Form road markings. The heat melting temperature at the time of application of the conventional heat welding type paint is about 200 ° C., and when the heat melting temperature becomes about 240 ° C. or more, generally, the entire paint is melted by thermal polymerization of a resin component. The viscosity rises and exceeds the limit melt viscosity that can be applied (see FIG. 1).
Further, when the heat melting temperature is about 250 ° C. or higher, generally, the heat welding type coating material gels and cannot be applied.

It is necessary to be within the range where the construction of the marking is possible. However, the melt viscosity (melt viscosity) of the heat-welding type coating material is such that the melt viscosity of the resin shows a non-Newtonian viscosity that shows complicated behavior due to step stress and the like due to the incorporation of glass beads and fillers.

For example, synthetic resins such as polyamide resins and polyester resins, and rosins and their derivatives, and natural resins such as petroleum resins and terpene resins. Phosphor powder used in the particle size present invention phosphorescent phosphor powder, the first (preferably, 5 to 80 m) average particle diameter of 5~90μm is that it is.

のに限定している。According to the present invention, a hot melt of a heat welding type paint is made to show flow characteristics which can be applied by a similar operation by a conventional application method, and furthermore, an optical mark of a glass bead. In order to maintain the function, the phosphor powder is limited to those having an average particle size of 5 to 90 μm (preferably, 5 to 80 μm).

点から施工が著しく困難になる。When the average particle size of the phosphor powder is larger than 90 μm, the function of optically marking road surface of the glass beads may be impaired even if the content of the phosphor powder is small. If it is less than 5 to 90 μm, construction becomes extremely difficult in terms of melt viscosity.

The horizontal axis indicates the average particle size of the phosphor powder.

μm以上であることが望まれる。If the average particle size of the phosphor powder is reduced by making the average particle size of the phosphor powder smaller while keeping the amount of the phosphor powder added to the coating material the same, if the average particle size becomes smaller than or near 5 μm, heat welding is performed. The melt viscosity of the mold paint exceeds the limit melt viscosity at which it can be applied (the melt viscosity indicated by the horizontal line of the dashed line in FIG. 1), and the application becomes extremely difficult in terms of melt viscosity. Therefore, from FIG. 1, the phosphor powder has an average particle size of about 5
It is desired that the thickness be not less than μm.

90μmであるとすることができる。The average particle size of the phosphor powder can be determined, for example, by classifying the phosphor powder with a sieve having an opening (mesh) of 90 μm or close to the eye, and a third of the powder passes through the sieve. In this case, the average particle size of the phosphor powder can be 90 μm.

And the like, in which a glass bead and an inorganic powder are partially exposed on the surface of the coating film (see FIG. 2).

動が複雑になる。Specifically, the phosphor powder is desirably contained at a ratio of 2.0 to 15.0 parts by weight based on the total weight of the coating film components excluding the phosphor. If the amount is less than 2.0 parts by weight, the afterglow luminance of the road marking film becomes insufficient, and
If it exceeds 5.0 parts by weight, the melt viscosity at the time of application tends to exceed the limit melt viscosity at which the application is possible, and the fluidity behavior of the melt becomes complicated.

Even if the coating film 11 is uniformly dispersed in the thickness direction of the coating film, and the coating film 11 is sequentially peeled off from above by passing through the vehicle, the road marking function at night due to the afterglow derived from the phosphor powder is maintained. <Second invention> The second invention has an average particle diameter of 5 to 90%.

By increasing the amount of the phosphor powder contained in the glass beads and mixing with the glass beads containing no phosphor powder (that is, ordinary glass beads), the entire amount of the glass beads is reduced.
