Fly ash is a byproduct from burning pulverized coal in electric power generating plants. During combustion, mineral impurities in the coal (clay, feldspar, quartz, and shale) fuse in suspension and float out of the combustion chamber with the exhaust gases.

Fly ash is volcanic ash and coal combustion process ash in powdered form,

It doesn't contain cementious property in itself but when react with Caoh2 in cement it form cementious compounds CSH gel! Increase its strength!
