The invention discloses a lightweight expanded perlite external wall heat insulation plate. The lightweight expanded perlite external wall heat insulation plate is prepared from, by weight, 100-120 parts of pretreated expanded perlite, 20-30 parts of flax fibers, 20-40 parts of aluminum oxide fibers, 10-20 parts of carbon nanotubes, 10-20 parts of gypsum powder, 8-16 parts of expanded vermiculitepowder, 8-16 parts of barite sand, 8-16 parts of coal ash, 7-10 parts of waste brick powder, 6-14 parts of calcium carbonate and 15-25 parts of basalt fibers. The pretreated expanded perlite is prepared by steps: mixing expanded perlite, xanthan gum and absolute ethyl alcohol, heating, stirring, adding hydrogen peroxide solution, stirring, adjusting a system pH value to 8.2-9, keeping the temperature, cooling, adjusting system pH to neutral, filtering, washing and drying to obtain the pretreated expanded perlite. The lightweight expanded perlite external wall heat insulation plate is low in density, effective in heat insulation and excellent in pressure resistance, and thickness is effectively reduced on the basis that strength is guaranteed.
