Abstract:
The tremendous human and economic cost of poor record of road safety in Egypt is of growing concern. Many studies worldwide have demonstrated that durable and accurate road marking provides a rapid and economical solution [6]. Locally used paints are not suitable for the extreme ware and tare conditions in Egypt. Therefore, road marking rapidly disappear and reapplication is required frequently. Furthermore, specifically designed paints are not locally available or are extremely expensive. The objective of this work is to use nanofillers [28-31] and other traditional fillers [39-45] in an optimized manner to reinforce a specifically chosen polymeric material to develop highly efficient road marking paint [1]. As we will show, the nanomaterials used enhanced both the mechanical and thermal properties of the developed paint.
