The invention discloses a multilayer antioxidant high-temperature-resistant SiC/Ta/C/Ta/SiC coating and a preparation method thereof. The multilayer antioxidant high-temperature-resistant SiC/Ta/C/Ta/SiC coating is formed by laminating SiC layers, Ta layers and C layers, and is characterized in that the laminating sequence is the SiC layer, the Ta layer, the C layer, the Ta layer and the SiC layer, or SiC layer, the Ta layer, the C layer, the Ta layer, the SiC layer, SiC layer, the Ta layer, the C layer, the Ta layer, and the SiC layer, or SiC layer, the Ta layer, the C layer, the Ta layer, the SiC layer, SiC layer, the Ta layer, the C layer, the Ta layer, the SiC layer, SiC layer, the Ta layer, the C layer, the Ta layer and the SiC layer; both sides of the C layer are Ta layers; the innermost layer and the outermost layer are SiC layers; and the Ta layer, the C layer, the Ta layer and the SiC layer are sequentially deposited on the prepared SiC layer with a chemical vapor deposition method so as to obtain the multilayer antioxidant high-temperature-resistant SiC/Ta/C/Ta/SiC coating. According to the coating and the preparation method thereof, the outer SiC layer forms a layer of SiO2 film in a high-temperature aerobic environment, so that diffusion of oxygen atoms can be prevented effectively, and meanwhile, a TaC layer can be formed on a contact surface of the Ta layer and the C layer to further improve the antioxidation performance. Alternate deposition of coatings can effectively relieve differences of coefficients of thermal expansion of the coatings and improve the thermal shock performance of the coatings remarkably, the thickness and lay number of a matrix can be controlled by controlling deposition time and deposition times, and the microstructure of the composite coating can be controlled.
