The　use　of　solid　waste　and　low-cost　gel　materials　to　replace　or　reduce　the　use　of　ordinary　Portl　and　cement　(OPC)　in　emulsified　asphalt　(EA)　binder　has　positive　significance　for　the　comprehensive　energy　consumption　and　economic　cost　of　cold　mix　asphalt　(CMA)　pavement.　The　proposed　study　investigates　the　interaction,　rheological　and　physicochemical　properties　of　emulsified　asphalt　(EA)　with　direct　coal　liquefaction　residue　based　geo-polymers　(DG)　by　fluorescence　microscopy　tests,　the　pH　test,　asphalt　conventional　tests,　dynamic　shear　rheo-logical　test　(DSR),　and　Fourier　transform　infrared　spectroscopy　test　(FTIR).　The　test　results　show　that　the　reaction　between　DG　mortar　and　EA　particles　was　faster　and　more　violent　than　that　of　OPC　mortar,　resulting　in　faster　demulsification　of　EA.　The　added　DG　mortar　increased　the　pH　of　the　EA　binder.　Similar　to　OPC,　DG　decreased　the　penetration　and　ductility　of　EA　evaporation　residues,　but　increased　its　softening　point.　The　addition　of　DG　to　EA　changed　the　rheological　properties　of　its　evaporation　residue,　including　complex　modulus　(G*)　and　phase　angle　(delta).　Temperature　sweep　and　frequency　sweep　test　results　show　that　DG　was　comparable　to　OPC　in　efficacy　against　EA　residues,　improving　rutting　resistance　at　the　expense　of　fatigue　performance.　Complex　modulus　co-efficient　(Delta　G*)　and　complex　viscosity　coefficient　(Delta　eta*)　indicate　that　the　interaction　of　EA-DG　is　stronger　than　that　of　EA-OPC.　FTIR　analysis　showed　that　the　interaction　between　DG　and　EA　is　linked　as　a　chemical　bond.
