The invention relates to a preparation method of a high-tap-density lithium titanate material, which aims at solving the problem of low density of a lithium titanate material produced by the prior art. The method comprises the steps of ball-milling and mixing a lithium source, a titanium source, a fluxing agent and a dispersing agent in a given ratio, drying the mixture, then pre-sintering at a low temperature, cooling and sintering at a high temperature to form the lithium titanate. The preparation method has the characteristics that the fluxing agent is added in the mixing process, so that particles can be tight in contact in the high-temperature sintering process, the interface tension between each two adjacent particles can be reduced, the growth development of a crystal is complete, and the density of the material can be further improved. The method is simple in technological flow, the raw materials are easily available, the prepared lithium titanate particles are large, the tap density is large, and the electrochemical property is good.
