The invention discloses a high-strength refractory brick and a preparation method thereof. The high-strength refractory brick is prepared by the following raw materials: expanded perlite, diatomite tailings, alumina micro-powder, silicon carbide micro-powder, grapheme, coal gangue, high-alumina bauxite, refractory clay, inorganic fibers, a bonding agent, a water reducing agent, a foaming agent anddeionized water. The high-strength lightweight refractory brick takes the expanded perlite, the diatomite tailings, the alumina micro-powder, the silicon carbide micro-powder, the grapheme, the coalgangue, the high-alumina bauxite, the refractory clay and the inorganic fibers as main components and is supplemented with processes such as mixing, foaming and high-temperature firing through addingthe bonding agent, the water reducing agent, the foaming agent and other auxiliary ingredients; the prepared high-strength refractory brick has higher strength, excellent fire resistance and low production cost, can meet industry requirements and has a better application prospect.
