The invention relates to a method for reducing a flow rate of polyethylene melt, which comprises the following process steps: A, preparation of auxiliary agents: taking 100 parts of polyethylene and 5-10 parts of polyethylene cross-linking agent; B, mixing: mixing the auxiliary agents at the room temperature; C, dilution: diluting the polyethylene according to a ratio of 100:1, putting 1 part of prepared auxiliary agents into 100 parts of polyethylene, and mixing; D, feeding: putting the well diluted mixture into an extruder for granulation and extrusion, thereby achieving the effect of reducing the flow rate of the polyethylene melt. The method has the advantages of simple process, easy operation and no pollution, and can realize the industrial mass production; and the method can reduce the flow rate of the polyethylene melt with the high melt index, so that the polyethylene melt can be used as a raw material suitable for pipeline production. The invention can be widely applied in product production with the extrusion, emptying, film blowing, drawing and the like of the polyethylene melt.
