Coal fly ash was used as the base material for the formation of thermal insulation materials. The porosity of the produced materials ranged from 86.3-94.5 vol. %. The insulating materials were prepared by ball milling, followed by foaming assisted by the addition of K12, casting and drying, and finally sintering. No harmful chemicals were released to the environment during their preparation. It was found that the thermal conductivity of the samples ...
