ReLIXER

news

ReLIXER® is a specially formulated elixir of bio-based oils that rejuvenates aged bitumen when recycling and reusing high levels of reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP) and/or reclaimed asphalt shingles (RAS) in mixes. Sripath’s ReLIXER is the leading asphalt rejuvenator or recycling agent on the market – trusted by customers worldwide and backed by peerless technical support from our in-country agent network. An asphalt rejuvenator is an additive that can restore the functional properties of aged asphalt binder, also known as bitumen. While the benefits of high-RAP mixes are many, there are physical limitations to using large amounts of RAP. Adding an asphalt rejuvenator can restore functional performance of aged asphalt and allow for higher RAP usage, up to 100% in some cases.

Video: How Should RAP Be Managed at a Mix Plant?

TRANSCRIPT FROM VIDEO: To use high amounts of Reclaimed Asphalt Pavement along with an effective rejuvenator, plant and quality managers need to make changes to how they process their materials.   While RAP has historically been perceived as a waste product, plants should treat it with the same care given to other input raw materials. Fractionated and homogenized [...]

Video: Can the Use of High-RAP Mixes with an Effective Rejuvenator Save Costs?

TRANSCRIPT FROM VIDEO: Overall mix cost is a critical component when designing a balanced mix that also meets performance and sustainability requirements. Importantly, high-RAP mixes have been shown to demonstrate cost savings in research conducted by the National Asphalt Pavement Association. According to NAPA data, using RAP has already resulted in $3.4 billion in savings on material [...]

Video: How Do High-RAP Mixes Dosed with Rejuvenators Age?

TRANSCRIPT FROM VIDEO: Balanced mix design that incorporates Reclaimed Asphalt Pavement dosed with a rejuvenator should consider adherence to performance properties both now and many years after wear and weathering. Testing should include an evaluation of how the aging process impacts these mixes to ensure durability and long-term performance.   Simulated aging tests for measures of the Cracking [...]

RAP, Recycling / Rejuvenating Agents, and Roadway Sustainability

New drivers for sustainability in asphalt roadway production continue to arise as departments of transportation look to minimize their carbon footprint without sacrificing performance. A recent article published in the February 2025 issue of AsphaltPro highlights the importance of using higher amounts of recycled materials in roadway development through the use of reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP) and an effective asphalt [...]
