Minnesota Reclamite Maltene Replacement Technology Long-Term Study

In 2024, the Minnesota cities of Woodbury, Eden Prairie, and Richfield completed an 8-year study of the Maltene Based Rejuvenator, Reclamite . The study was conducted with Corrective Asphalt Materials (CAM). All 3 cities were early adopters of an MRT asphalt preservation program.

The goals were to document the long-term effects Reclamite has on asphalt and to determine if subsequent applications of Reclamite add value. In this study, we explain the background, the process, testing data, and results.

The results prove that early application of Reclamite preserves asphalt, reduces oxidation, and decreases viscosity of the roads by adding the essential maltenes into roadways. Agencies can save additional time and money by applying Reclamite to pavement within 12 months: The sooner the application, the greater the ROI.

Coring data shows, the earlier you apply Reclamite, the more beneficial it is. It also shows that you can postpone the second application of Reclamite to 6 or 7 years if the first application is done within 1 year of paving.
