This article discussed the influence of FA fineness on the production performance and usability through the autoclaved aerated concrete slurry gas foaming curve and basic physical properties of blocks; meanwhile, studied the influence of different fineness FA on the composition and morphology of hydration products through X-ray diffraction analysis and scanning electron microscopic analysis, The results show that in the cement-fly ash-lime system autoclaved aerated concrete, the higher fineness of FA, the more water it need, and more sensitive the slurry presents; when the FA residue decrease from 17.8% to 8% through a 0.045mm square hole sieve screen, its specific surface area enlarge from 325m2/Kg to 388m2/Kg, the autoclaved aerated concrete specific strength increase by 53.24% and 40.96% in the case of the same ratio of water and resemble extended degree, respectively. Keep on increasing FA fineness does harm to its specific strength. The crystallinity of tobermorite, which is the main hydration products of autoclaved aerated concrete decreases with the increasing of FA fineness, however, crystallite size become larger.
