DEVELOPMENT OF AN ADHESION TESTS FOR TRAFFIC BUTTONS, MARKERS AND JIGGLE BARS

A PROCEDURE WAS DEVELOPED TO DETERMINE THE DEGREE OF ADHESION OBTAINABLE TO TRAFFIC MARKERS USING A STANDARD EPOXY ADHESIVE. BOND TESTS TO SEVERAL DIFFERENT TYPES OF MARKERS WERE PERFORMED AT 0, 77 AND 140 F AND ALSO AFTER FREEZING AND THAWING. A BOND STRENGTH OF 500 PSI AT 77 F WAS SELECTED AS THE MINIMUM FOR SATISFACTORY PERFORMANCE. /AUTHOR/
