The invention relates to environment-friendly high-strength emulsion paint and a preparation method thereof. The emulsion paint is prepared from, by weight, dispersing agents, defoaming agents, quartz powder, kaolin, titanium dioxide, 2-amino-2-methyl-1- propyl alcohol, propylene glycol, emulsion and water. The preparation method comprises the steps of 1, pouring the water into a container, and starting stirring; 2, adding the dispersing agents and part of the defoaming agents, conducting stirring, then adding the kaolin, the titanium dioxide and the quartz powder, and then conducting dispersion for about 30 minutes; 3, after the mixture is dispersed uniformly, adding the 2-amino-2-methyl-1- propyl alcohol, the propylene glycol and the remaining defoaming agents, and conducting dispersion till the mixture gets uniform and no particle exists; 4, adding the emulsion, and conducing dispersion for about 30 minutes. The environment-friendly high-strength emulsion paint has the effective advantages of being environment-friendly, mildew-proof, alkali-resistant, free of color fading and chalking, scrubbing-resistant, great in adhesion, good in application property and high in covering power and is a top-selection competitive product for building wall decoration of houses, offices, projects and the like.
