The invention discloses a method for synthesizing an SAPO-35 molecular sieve by a two-mode agent, which is characterized in that the method comprises the steps of mixing aluminum source, phosphorus source, silicon source and an organic template to glue at the temperature of room temperature to 100 DEG C and preparing into the reaction mixture with the molar ratio components of a1R1+a2R2: Al2O3: bP2O5: cSiO2: dH2O, wherein R1 and R2 are the organic templates, the value of a1 is 0.5-1.8, the value of a2 is 0.1-1.0, the value of b is 0.5-1.5, the value of c is 0.05-2.5, and the value of d is 10-150; the reaction mixture undergoes hydrothermal crystallization for 0.5-500 hours at the temperature of 150-250 DEG C and the crystallization product is recovered. The R1 is hexamethylene imine, and the R2 is any of cyclohexane, piperidine, tropine, diethylamine and triethylamine. The method provided by the invention can synthesize the high-crystallinity SAPO-35 molecular sieve in a relatively wide silica content range. The SAPO-35 molecular sieve synthesized by the method of the invention is applicable to the hydrocarbon conversion technology. Applied to the olefin preparation reaction by methanol dehydration, the molecular sieve has very low alkane selectivity and high product yield of ethylene and propylene.
