Materials that seamlessly transition from opaque to transparent or translucent, such as advanced geopolymer-based ceramics to glass structures, which can be directly and seamlessly bonded without the use of an intermediate adhesive or use of a frame are disclosed. That is, a GP-based ceramic to glass structure can be bonded directly and seamlessly and without any mechanical joints, connective tissue or adhesives such as caulking or epoxy. Such ceramic to glass materials can be prepared by sintering an engineered geopolymer with glass to form the geopolymer-based advanced ceramic-glass structure in which the interface is visually abruptly or in which the material is a graded composition with a controlled transition from one material to the other.

A synergistic disposal method of hazardous waste incineration residues and solid wastes, ceramsite and an application thereof, all belonging to the field of resources and environment. The disposal method includes the following steps: mixing of the hazardous waste incineration residues and solid wastes, granulation and dehydration of the resulting mixture and calcination to obtain ceramsite. In the preparation of ceramsite by the synergistic disposal of hazardous waste incineration residues and solid wastes as the raw materials, dioxin and organic matters in the hazardous waste incineration residues and solid wastes are decomposed, meanwhile the contained heavy metals are reduced and solidified, solving the disposal problem of hazardous waste incineration residues and solid wastes, saving a lot of land for landfills, decreasing the cost for comprehensive disposal, not producing new hazardous wastes, and reducing the burden of ecological environment.

A composition of the wear-resistant material of the present invention includes high-temperature resistant skeleton metal materials, ceramic fiber materials and ceramic particle materials with the mass ratio of (10-60):(1-30):(10-70). The high-temperature resistant skeleton metal materials are foam metal or high-temperature resistant metal fibers. The wear-resistant material is good in wear-resistance, high in tenacity, suitable for occasions with high requirements for wear-resistance and tenacity and capable of being locally attached to the surface of the light metal alloy matrix to improve the wear-resistance and tenacity of the light metal alloy matrix under high temperature conditions.
