The invention discloses a waterborne epoxy zinc-rich paint modified by a nanometer conductive carbon material and a preparation method thereof. The paint is composed of a component A and a component B, wherein the component A comprises waterborne epoxy emulsion, the nanometer conductive carbon material, zinc powder, a waterborne antifoaming agent, a waterborne wetting dispersant and the like, and the component B is modified amine curing agent emulsion. The preparation method comprises: (1) preparing a waterborne slurry of the nanometer conductive carbon material; (2) adding water, waterborne epoxy emulsion, waterborne anti-forming agent and waterborne wetting dispersant into a stirred tank, stirring with a low speed to disperse uniformly, successively adding zinc powder, an anti-settling agent, the nanometer conductive carbon material slurry and the like, dispersing with a high speed to obtain the component A of the waterborne epoxy zinc-rich paint modified by the nanometer conductive carbon material; and (3) adding the component B into the component A, stirring uniformly and sieving. By employing the waterborne epoxy zinc-rich paint of the invention, the obtained epoxy anticorrosion coating modified by the nanometer conductive carbon material has excellent corrosion resistance and impact resistance.
