Thermoplastic material boiling instruction
- Heating up a boiler. Once the container acquires enough heat, have 1 or 2 bags of materials poured in.
- As soon as the substances dissolved, a stirring propeller turned on. Stirring continually until they become the watery form. The following color bags may be added, one by one, accordingly.
- Once the materials dissolved enough, additional bags will be poured depending on the required volume, or the boiler-full-level.
- Remaining the heat of 160-180 degree celsius.
- Stirring the heated materials approximately 30 minutes, then, lowering the heat, in order to maintain the temperature.
- When the materials blended appropriately, the color-aperture allowed to open, as the materials to be outpoured into a road marking machine: the well-blended and evened color on the surface is the expecting outcome.
Warnings:
- The boiler temperature should not be over 200 degree celsuis.
- It is prohibited to add several color bags into the boiler at the same time, as the failure of the color-stirring propeller capacity might be occured.
- After the work finished, any left-over materials remained in the boiler should be completely transferred to other utensil. In case the remained left-over ones in the boiler intended to be re-boiled, it would waste both time and gas to dissolve the substance.
- To re-boil the transferred materials is feasible, but the new bags are recommended to include.
- The boiled materials contains several defects; non-attachable, fragile and cracking, compared to the newly boiled one.
