TOTAL ASPHALT's flagship product,
Paverx®, is not
like
any other Rejuvenator/Sealer.
It all comes
down to science.

Using Gas Chromatography and Infrared Spectrometry, Paverx® was formulated to create the best match of closed-ring compounds that ignite the rejuvenation process. Unlike any other product, Paverx's rejuvenating oils are twice refined to remove all impurities and concentrate a very narrow range of the most active rejuvenating molecules.
This unique concentration of rejuvenating oils stops the oxidation process and changes the molecular composition of the asphalt binder. This new "Super Binder" stops top-down cracking and heals hairline spider fractures.
This level of rejuvenation is possible because Paverx, unlike seal coats, is designed to penetrate the surface of asphalt. Once it has penetrated, Paverx dramatically reduces the viscosity in the top one-half inch of asphalt while significantly increasing ductility.
Paverx's durability is superior. During thermal cycles, it contracts and expands at the same rate as the asphalt. In comparison, seal coats simply lie on the surface. They undergo a markedly different expansion and contraction rate from the asphalt. This eventually leads to cracking, pin-holing, and delamination. Paverx does not suffer from these problems; it becomes an integral part of the asphalt.
