A series of low‐carbon fly ash cenosphere plates was prepared using solid waste based cementitious material as binder through a simple process; meanwhile, effects of cenosphere's particle size and size distribution on microstructure and properties were investigated. In the range of 20–200 mesh, as particle size decreases, sound absorption performance decreases while strength improves. Appropriate particle grading can effectively improve the compressive strength, but it will lead to a significant decrease in sound absorption performance. Samples prepared from fly ash cenosphere with a particle size of 20–40 mesh show good sound absorption performance: when the cavity size is 0 mm, the maximum sound absorption coefficient is 0.64 and the average value is 0.36 in the range of 50–1 600 Hz; when the cavity size is 100 mm, sound absorption coefficient at 100 Hz is 0.47, the maximum sound absorption coefficient in the range of 50–1 600 Hz is 0.90, and the average value is 0.57 in the range of 100–500 Hz. The prepared low‐carbon fly ash cenosphere plates show excellent sound absorption performance at low‐frequency and are expected to have broad application prospects in low‐frequency noise reduction and absorption.
