The invention discloses a method for preparing a flaky iron oxide. The flaky iron oxide is obtained through a vacuum coating machine. The vacuum coating machine includes a vacuum pump, a vacuum pipeline arrangement, a vacuum coating chamber, a flaky iron oxide supporting chamber and an electrical discharging gas inlet. High-energy particles generated by an iron oxide target are deposited on the surface of the conveying belt; and then the flaky iron oxide on a conveying belt is stripped and calcined to obtain the flaky iron oxide with bright color. By means of the method, vacuum sputtering time can be controlled to prepare the flaky iron oxide with various diameter-to-thickness ratios, and pollution caused by a traditional chemical deposition preparation method can be avoided. The preparation method is simple and environment-friendly. Due to the adoption of roller transmission, the production efficiency is improved.
