Disclosed are silica 
powder for wood 
lacquer transparent finishing paint and a preparation method of the silica 
powder. The method comprises the steps that firstly, high-purity 
crystalline quartz sandis magnetically separated, the magnetically-separated high-purity 
crystalline quartz sand is crushed by 
airflow crushing equipment, a modifier is added for modification during crushing, and after modification is completed, the material is classified by an 
airflow classifier to obtain the silica 
powder with D50 equal to 2.0-7.0 micrometers and D100 smaller than or equal to 25.0 micrometers, wherein the silica powder is the silica powder for the wood 
lacquer transparent finishing paint. By means of the method, the high-purity 
crystalline quartz sand with specific particle size and specific components is used as a 
raw material, the silica powder product with specific 
particle size distribution, a small specific surface area, a regular particle shape and high purity is prepared through 
airflow crushing, the process flow is simple, the wood 
lacquer transparent finishing paint obtained by applying the product is good in transparency and handfeel, easy to disperse and unlikely to settle, andthe silica powder can be used for improving the 
hardness and scratch resistance of a paint film and is suitable for the wood lacquer transparent oily finishing paint, water-based finishing paint, other transparent finishing paint, primer, transparent adhesives and the like.
