【 摘 要 】

A self-foaming alkali-activated lightweight material was prepared by the pretreatment of municipal solid waste incineration bottom ash (BA). The low weight could be achieved without adding a foaming agent by using the low-density and self-foaming expansion characteristics of BA in combination with a strong alkali. The effects of BA, liquid sodium silicate (LSS), and calcium hydroxide (CH) on dry and wet densities, as well as water absorption, are discussed. The results show that increasing the BA content can significantly improve the foaming effect and reduce the dry and wet densities of specimens. However, it also leads to a sudden decrease in compressive strength and a significant increase in water absorption. LSS and CH can significantly improve the ability to seal bubbles by accelerating condensation, and they further reduce dry and wet densities without significantly improving water absorption. It is most effective at BA, LSS, and CH contents of 60, 20, and 2%, respectively.
