3mm-40mm Thickness Colored Pavement Anti Slip Road Marking Colours
Colored Pavement Product Data Sheet
Product Introduction
Colored pavement is a special functional road surface with color identification features, constructed by adding inorganic pigments to asphalt or concrete mixtures, or using materials such as colored aggregates, transparent resins, and polymer coatings . This technology originated in Europe and America in the 1950s, with China beginning technical exploration in the early 1980s and now widely applied nationwide . Colored pavement integrates road functionality, traffic safety, landscape beautification, and environmental protection, providing a comprehensive solution for enhancing urban image and road quality .
Performance Characteristics
Excellent Road Performance: Good high-temperature stability, water damage resistance, and durability; no deformation or asphalt film peeling under different temperatures and environmental conditions; good adhesion to substrate .
Long-Lasting Color: Bright and durable colors, resistant to fading, withstands high temperatures of 77°C and low temperatures of -23°C, easy maintenance .
Sound Absorption: Strong sound absorption function; reduces noise from tire rolling and absorbs external noise .
Elastic and Comfortable: Good elasticity and flexibility, comfortable "foot feel", suitable for elderly walking, anti-slip in winter .
Slip-Resistant Safety: Anti-slip properties significantly reduce braking distance, eliminating safety hazards caused by water film on rainy days .
Excellent Weather Resistance: Outstanding UV resistance, aging resistance, and weatherability, adaptable to different climatic environments .
Eco-Friendly: Water-based environmentally friendly formula, low VOC emissions, complying with green road maintenance standards .
Easy Construction: Available in hot-mix hot-lay or cold-mix cold-lay processes (applicable at temperatures ≥-5°C), no heating required .
Heat Island Effect Reduction: High solar reflectivity reduces road radiation heat, decreasing urban heat island effect and saving energy .
