Using industrial waste as part of the raw material to produce cement-based materials is considered to be a sustainable cement and concrete materials production method. Coal gasification fly ash (hereafter CGFA) is a solid waste produced during the coal gasification process. Similar to pulverized coal fly ash (hereafter PCFA), it is also a kind of fly ash discharged from combustion coal furnaces. With the development of coal gasification technology, more and more CGFA needs to be treated. Based on the successful experience of PCFA as a supplementary cementitious material in cement-based materials, CGFA is used as a supplementary cementitious material in this paper. A comparison of the performance of two coal-based fly ashes as a supplementary cementitious material (hereafter SCM) was conducted. The effects of two fly ashes on the fluidity and strength of cement mortar were discussed, and the mechanism was analyzed from the mineral composition and morphology of hydration products. At the same time, the properties of CGFA and ultrafine CGFA (UFCGFA) as an SCM were compared. The results show that CGFA has more negative effects on the fluidity of cement mortar than PCFA. But it has a greater contribution to the strength of cement mortar than PCFA. X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) results show that the active components of CGFA participate in the hydration reaction faster, showing a stronger pozzolanic reactivity than PCFA. Ultrafine treatment of CGFA not only improves the pozzolanic activity but also reduces the negative effect on the fluidity of cement mortar. The contribution of UFCGFA to the fluidity and strength of cement mortar can be greatly improved.
