The invention provides a light guide plate as a liquid crystal display backlight and a preparation method thereof, comprising PMMA, PC, light diffusing agent, light stabilizer, heat stabilizer, silicone masterbatch, fused silica sand, the weight of each component The number of parts is: PMMA35‑60, PC25‑40, light diffusing agent 1‑8, light stabilizer 0.3‑3, heat stabilizer 0.1‑1, silicone masterbatch 2‑5, fused silica sand 10‑15. The above materials are melted and then injected into a mold to make a light guide plate. The light guide plate can exhibit higher hardness at normal temperature, and can effectively prevent scratches on the surface of the light guide plate.
