Fischer Tropsch wax used for road marking paint

Fischer-Tropsch wax is widely used in road marking paints and serves as a key performance additive. It significantly improves the application properties of the coating, enhances film quality, and extends the service life of the markings.
Improved Application and Flow Properties
Reduced Melt Viscosity: Fischer-Tropsch wax effectively reduces the viscosity of the coating in its molten state, giving it better flow and levelling properties. This makes it easier to apply, resulting in smooth, aesthetically pleasing markings.
Prevention of Pigment Settling: It acts as a dispersant, helping to distribute pigments and fillers uniformly within the resin. This prevents settling during application, ensuring the uniformity of the coating and the stability of its colour.
