The invention relates to a preparation method for a poly(p-phenylene terephthamide) (PPTA) membrane, and belongs to the technical field of membrane materials and polymer polymerication. The preparation method comprises: adding a certain amount of a surfactant in a PPTA low-temperature solution polymerization process, adding a large amount of a solvent N-methylpyrolidone (NMP) into the polymerization system after polymerization is performed to a certain degree, so as to disperse the polymerization system, then adding a large amount of a dispersing agent to washing out the surfactant, and then performing reduced-pressure filtering on the PPTA dispersion solution, so as to obtain the membrane. The preparation method starts from a PPTA monomer, and the high-performance PPTA membrane with small shrinkage, high strength and isotropy is prepared through steps of polymerization, swelling, dispersing, filtering and drying. The employed surfactant is soluble polyoxyethylene ether high molecules with different molecular weight and different end groups, and the dispersing agent employs water, alcohols and other polar solvents. The preparation method has the characteristics of being simple and practicable in membrane preparation technology, safe in process, efficient, controllable and the like, and has good industrial application prospect.
