A method for stabilizing a neutralization slag of uranium associated zirconium and zirconia, and a stabilization agent used therein are disclosed. The stabilization agent includes the following components in parts by weight: a pretreatment agent of 2-8 parts, anhydrous calcium chloride of 2-6 parts, an adsorbent of 3-5 parts and a stabilizer of 4-9 parts. The stabilization agent is used to stabilize the uranium that is existed in the neutralization slag in a waste slag. The method includes the following steps: the pretreatment agent is used to alkalize and disperse the neutralization slag; soluble calcium salt is added to cement the neutralization slag; and the adsorbent and the stabilizer are used as a composite material to passivate the neutralization slag. The method has low cost, fast effectiveness, simple process, easy operation, and long-term stable remediation efficiency, which can be applied to the treatment and disposal of associated radioactive waste residues.
