Reclamite — How it Works? |
Used on ‘Hotmix’, Chip Seal, Slurry and Micro sub-division type roads to rejuvenate and restore the asphalt Viscosity and Penetration values, and by so doing extend the life cycle of the Pavement |
Product Summary |
· Restores the proper balance between the five Asphalt components. · Restores Flexibility and Ductility to the top portion of old, brittle Pavement. · Stops Raveling and Stripping of the Aggregate. · Seals the surface and ‘in depth’ against intrusion of Air and Water elements. · Extends service Life of Pavement 4-6 years. · Minimal disruption to Traffic and Residents. · Higher rate of return on your Investments, more cost effective on your Budget. · No Pavement repainting or striping lines required. · Its EPA acceptable. · Also Well Proven in Airport and Runway applications. |

Reclamite is an oil based , cationic emulsion with a built in surfactant designed to penetrate asphalt 1-1.5” .The product is shot with a Distributer truck on the surface with penetration in 10-20mins depending on temperature. The chemical components in Reclamite restore the asphaltene / maltene balance which have leached out over time due to oxidation, water, traffic and weathering causing the road to become dry and brittle, which then starts the deterioration process. Restoring these chemicals allows the road to self heal becoming more flexible and ductile to flat line the PCI index and maintain the pavement in good condition and extend the life before any additional rehabilitive maintenance is required. A great secondary benefit is that Reclamite also acts as a traditional sealer against air and water protecting the pavement, the difference to normal seal coats being that due to Reclamites penetration features , we get terrific seal in depth. |
