Master X-Seed® STE, Strength-Enhancing Concrete Admixture
Master X-Seed STE is a patent-pending, strength-enhancing admixture that improves both early and late-age strength of concrete. Master X-Seed STE admixture is based on a unique technology that facilitates improved cement hydration, thus enhancing strength development and support sustainable construction. The strength-enhancing property of Master X-Seed STE admixture permits a reduction in the total cementitious material content of given concrete mixture while maintaining compressive strength development equivalent to that of reference concrete with associated benefits in CO2 emission reduction.

Features of Master X-Seed STE strength-enhancing concrete admixture
- Improves cement hydration based on a unique seeding technology
- Increase strength development - both early (1-day) and late-age (28-day)
- Reduces heat of hydration through reduction of cementitious content
Benefits of Master X-Seed STE strength-enhancing concrete admixture
- Provides strength safety factor and/or expanded performance space
- Reduces in-place concrete costs when utilized in optimized concrete mixtures
- Permits higher replacement levels of supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs)
- Permits earlier stripping and reuse of forms, increasing construction and production efficiency in precast and ready-mix concrete applications in Singapore
- Reduces the CO2 emissions associated with concrete
