XT30 High Early Strength Cement is a rapid-setting CSA-based binder that develops >20 MPa compressive strength in 3 hours, ideal for fast-track concrete repairs and precast production.
Fast Setting Time – Initial set in 15 minutes, final set within 30 minutes
Early Strength Gain – ≥20 MPa in 3h, ≥50 MPa in 1d, ≥90 MPa in 28d
Crack-Resistant Micro-Expansion – Minimizes shrinkage and improves durability
Eco-Friendly & Low Carbon – Reduces OPC use by 20–50%, chloride-free and low-alkali
Product Introduction
XT30 is a high-performance, eco-friendly early-strength cement additive developed by SINO-SINA. Produced using C-A-Š mineral fusion technology, it blends bauxite, by-product gypsum, limestone, and high-alumina solid waste into a low-carbon, highly reactive binder.
XT30 is designed as a partial replacement for Portland cement and a viable alternative to CSA cement (Calcium Sulfoaluminate Cement). It accelerates early hydration, delivers rapid strength gain, and suppresses early cracking—all while maintaining long-term strength stability without the risk of strength regression common in CSA-based systems.
While both XT30 and CSA cement offer fast-setting and early-strength characteristics, XT30 stands out as a greener and more compatible solution for regular concrete and mortar systems. Here's how they compare:
Feature | XT30 Early Strength Additive | CSA Cement (Calcium Sulfoaluminate Cement) |
---|---|---|
Material Type | Additive / Partial cement replacement | Full cement replacement (special binder) |
Application Method | Replace 20–50% of OPC | Used as main binder (may replace 100% OPC) |
Early Strength | ≥30 MPa @ 3h (with OPC) | ≥30 MPa @ 3h (pure) |
Strength Stability | No regression; long-term strength improves | May experience later strength drop without optimization |
Shrinkage/Cracking | Micro-expansive; good crack control | Moderate shrinkage; depends on formulation |
Chloride / Alkali Content | Chloride-free, low alkali (safe for rebar) | May contain higher sulfate or alkali levels |
Environmental Profile | Low carbon, waste-utilizing binder | Higher calcination energy & emissions |
Ease of Use | Compatible with OPC-based mixes; no major design change | May require new mix designs and setting control |

Flexural Strength - 3h (MPa) | ≥ 4.0 | 4.5 |
Compressive Strength - 3h (MPa) | ≥ 20.0 | 25.0 |
Compressive Strength - 1d (MPa) | ≥ 50.0 | 56.0 |
Compressive Strength - 28d (MPa) | ≥ 60.0 | 92.0 |

XT30 (pure) | 4.5 | 22.0 | 90.0 |
CSA (pure) | 7.0 | 40.0 | 45.0 |
Recommended replacement ratio: 20–50% of OPC with XT30.
Use potable water; water-to-binder ratio between 0.40–0.48 depending on mix design.
Mix thoroughly using a forced-action mixer; dry mix 10 seconds, then wet mix 3 minutes.
For cold weather, warm mixing water up to 65°C is recommended.
Pour within 30 minutes of mixing; do not use material if workability drops below specification.
Packaged in 25 kg moisture-proof composite bags.
Shelf life: 3 months when stored in cool, dry, ventilated areas.
Keep bags sealed and protected from moisture and frost.
