The invention provides a method for testing foil resistivity. The method comprises the following steps: S1, cutting a foil to be tested into a plurality of samples with different lengths and equal widths; S2, testing the resistance Ri of each sample, wherein i is a sample number; S3, drawing a coordinate taking the length Li of each sample as a transverse axis and taking the resistance Ri of eachsample as a longitudinal axis, substituting each coordinate point (Li, Ri) into the coordinate to draw an oblique line, and acquiring the slope k of the oblique line, wherein i is an element of a set(1, n), and n is the quantity of samples; and S4, acquiring the resistivity of the foil to be tested according to a slope curve k=rho / S, wherein rho is the resistivity, and S is the cross sectional area of each sample of a unit length. According to the method, the slope k is obtained through coordinate fitting, so that the influence of external resistance on sample testing is eliminated, and the intrinsic resistivity of the foil to be tested can be calculated accurately. The testing method is simple and reliable, has high data accuracy, can realize accurate measurement of the resistivity of the foil, and has great application prospect in the field of lithium ion battery current collectors.
