The present invention discloses an oxidation-resistant conductive copper past, a manufacturing method and a use thereof. The oxidation-resistant conductive copper paste comprises 70 wt % to 90 wt % of copper particles, a binder, a thixotropic agent and a solvent. The manufacturing method comprises the steps of mixing the binder, the thixotropic agent and ethanol thoroughly to obtain a first mixture; mixing the solvent with the first mixture thoroughly to obtain a second mixture; mixing the copper particles with the second mixture to obtain a conductive copper paste precursor; and removing the ethanol from the conductive copper paste precursor to obtain the oxidation-resistant conductive copper paste. The oxidation-resistant conductive copper paste can be used for manufacturing a conductive film of a circuit board or an electrode of a solar battery by a printing process.
