The invention relates to a low-smoke zero-halogen flame retardant EVA rubber sheath material for a mine cable. The low-smoke zero-halogen flame retardant EVA rubber sheath material comprises the following components by weight: 100 parts of EVA resin, 110-130 parts of magnesium hydrate, 10-18 parts of carbon black, 1-5 parts of an antiager RD, 2-8 parts of DEP dioctyl ester, 2-8 parts of paraffin,0.5-2 parts of a silane coupling agent, 1-5 parts of stearic acid, 1-5 parts of a release agent, 1-5 parts of a vulcanizing agent DCP and 1-5 parts of a crosslinking agent TAIC, the preparation sequentially comprises the steps of preparing the materials, mixing, sulphurating, discharging a sheet, extruding and forming. A preparation method is simple, the steps are easy to operate, the EVA resin istaken as a main body and the magnesium hydrate is taken as a flame retardant to prepare and obtain the rubber sleeve material, the tensile strength of the rubber sleeve material is large, the rubbersleeve material is better in light transmittance in the combustion, the toxicity index is low, the corrosive PH value is higher than the national standard requirement, and the low-smoke zero-halogen flame retardant EVA rubber sheath material meets the requirements of low smoke, zero halogen, flame retarding and low toxicity of the mine cable.
