The invention discloses a novel environmentally-friendly 
powder grinding aid as well as a preparation method and application thereof, and belongs to the technical field of 
powder grinding. The 
grinding aid comprises the following raw materials in parts by weight: 40-50 parts of diethanol 
monoisopropanolamine, 30-40 parts of hexadecanol ester, 10-15 parts of 
calcium lignosulfonate, 5-10 parts of 
ethylene glycol, 4-8 parts of hydroxyethyl methylcellulose, 8-12 parts of 
sodium hexametaphosphate and 2-5 parts of 
sodium polyacrylate. The 
calcium lignosulfonate has good dispersibility, so that the grinding efficiency can be improved, the 
machine-hour output is increased, the 
electricity consumption is lowered, a synergistic effect of 
raw material components can be also promoted, and the adaptability of the grinding aid to 
calcium carbonate is improved. The hexadecanol ester is applied to fusion of 
polyol and a 
lignin derivative, and high-adsorption strength dispersing agents, namely the 
sodium hexametaphosphate and the 
sodium polyacrylate, are contained, so that a phenomenon of 
powder agglomeration can be obviously solved, 
gradation of 
calcium carbonate particles is improved and the content of micropowder particles is increased.
