The invention provides a liquid active 
magnesium-
cuprous chloride paper battery and a preparation method thereof. The 
magnesium-
cuprous chloride paper battery is composed of the following successively laminated components: a 
magnesium negative 
electrode, 
fiber paper having absorbed an 
electrolyte, diaphragm paper coated with CuCl active 
slurry and a carbon 
current collector. The preparation method comprises the following steps: passivating the magnesium negative 
electrode and preparing the 
electrolyte with a 
magnesium salt concentration of 0.1 to 1.0 M and a 
corrosion inhibitor concentration of 0.02 to 0.06 M; dipping the 
fiber paper in the 
electrolyte and then 
drying the 
fiber paper at a temperature of 40 to 50 DEG C for subsequent usage; mixing CuCl, a conductive agent and an additive according to a 
mass ratio of 80-90: 10-20: 0.1-1, carrying out ball milling to obtain CuCl mixed 
powder, then weighing a certain amount of the CuCl mixed 
powder, adding deionized water into the weighed CuCl mixed 
powder to prepare the CuCl active 
slurry, then 
coating the CuCl active 
slurry on the surface of the diaphragm paper and 
drying the diaphragm paper at a temperature of 30 to 40 DEG C for subsequent usage; and successively superposing a layer of absorbent paper having absorbed the electrolyte, the diaphragm paper coated with the CuCl active slurry and the carbon 
current collector on the surface of the magnesium 
electrode, leading out positive and negative wires and carrying out vacuum packaging with a 
plastic film. The liquid active magnesium-
cuprous chloride paper battery provided by the invention has excellent storage performance and does not lose 
efficacy after long-term storage, and the 
voltage of a 
battery cell reaches 1.8 to 2.0 V.
