Component Test Method White Yellow <br /> Calcium Carbonate and Inert Filler ( - % minimum per % minimum per <br /> 200 mesh sieve) manufacturer manufacturer <br /> Percentages are by weight. <br /> The alkyd/maleic binder must consist of a mixture of synthetic resins (at least one <br /> synthetic resin must be solid at room temperature) and high boiling point plasticizers . At least <br /> one -half of the binder composition must be 100 % maleic -modified glycerol of rosin and be no <br /> less than 15 % by weight of the entire material formulation . <br /> 971 -9 .3 Retroreflective Elements : The reflective elements in the intermix shall be <br /> determined by the manufacturer and identified for the QPL System . <br /> 971 -9 .4 Physical Requirements : Laboratory samples shall be prepared in accordance <br /> with ASTM D 4960 and shall meet the following criteria : <br /> Property Test Method Minimum Maximum <br /> Water Absorption ASTM D 570 - 0 . 5 % <br /> Softening Point ASTM D 36 210°F - <br /> Low Temperature AASHTO T 250 Pass - <br /> Stress Resistance <br /> Specific Gravity Water displacement 1 . 9 2 . 3 <br /> Indentation Resistance ASTM D 2240 * 65 - <br /> Shore Durometer, A2 <br /> Im act Resistance ASTM D 256 , Method A 1 . 0 N m - <br /> P <br /> Flash Point ASTM D 92 475 °F - <br /> *The durometer and panel shall be at 80°F, but not exceeding 90°F with a 4.4 lb load applied . Instrument measurement shall <br /> be <br /> taken after 15 seconds . <br /> 971 -9 .4 . 1 Set To Bear Traffic Time : When applied at the temperatures and <br /> thickness specified by Section 701 , the baseline material shall set to bear traffic in not more than <br /> two minutes . The audible bump shall set to bear traffic in not more than 10 minutes at ambient <br /> air temperatures of 80°F or less and in not more than 15 minutes for ambient air temperatures <br /> exceeding 80°F . <br /> 971 -9 .4 . 2 Retroreflectivity : The white and yellow pavement markings shall <br /> attain an initial retroreflectance of not less than 300 mcd/lx mz and not less than 250 mcd/lx m', <br /> respectively . The retroreflectance of the white and yellow pavement markings at the end of the <br /> three year service life shall not be less than 150 mcd/lx • mZ . <br /> 971 -9 .4 .3 Durability : Durability is the measured percent of thermoplastic <br /> material completely removed from the pavement . The thermoplastic material line loss must not <br /> exceed 5 . 0 % at the end of the three year service life . Durability shall also include flattening of <br /> the profile or raised portions of the line . The flattening of the profile or raised portion of the line p <br /> shall not exceed 25 % at the end of the three year service life . <br /> 971 -9 . 5 Application Properties : Application properties shall meet the requirements of <br /> Section 701 . <br /> 971 -9 . 6 Packing and Labeling : The thermoplastic material shall be packaged in suitable <br /> biodegradable or thermo- degradable containers which will not adhere to the product during <br /> shipment and storage . The container of thermoplastic material shall weigh approximately 50 lb . <br /> - 233 - <br /> FPID ( S ) : 423186 - 1 - 58 - 01 <br />
