Description: The invention refer to an ecologic polymer based on thermoelectric powerplant ash and glass powder from recycled wastes for applications in the field of contructions and procedure of obtaining it, which is activated alkaline with a solution of sodium silicate and hydroxide, by geopolymerisation. The obtained material is obtained from a mixture of ash from a powerplant (36±1%), glass powder (15±1%), alkaline activated with a solution of sodium silicate (28±1%) and sodium hydroxide 10M (20±1%), and poured in a mold, vibrated and than dryed at room temperature for minimum 24h. The resulted material has an original chemical composition and is used for application in the field of building materials:  facades, screeds, bricks, refractory insulation, etc.
