“…On the other hand, nepheline [28][29][30], leucite [31][32][33], and pollucite [34,35] ceramics can be easily obtained from them after high-temperature sintering above 800 . Furthermore, alkaline metal ions can be ℃ replaced by other cations (e.g., strontium [36], ammonium [37], and copper [38]). Due to low cost and broad availability of the raw materials including solid waste, easy pore formation, high yield, and low shrinkage of the resulting materials [39,40], the method of converting geopolymers to ceramics has attracted increasing attention, especially for the porous ceramics, such as glass ceramic foams [41], porous SrAl 2 Si 2 O 8 ceramics [36], open-cell leucite ceramics [24], porous h-AlN/SiCbased ceramics [42], porous mullite [21], porous cordierite [43], and monoclinic-celsian ceramics [44].…”
