The invention provides a method for manufacturing superfine flaky zinc powder with high corrosion resistance, and belongs to the technology of metallurgical waste utilization and metal powder material manufacturing. Raw zinc powder is commercially available waste sieved out in a battery zinc powder process, the raw zinc powder, industrial auxiliary agents and grinding media are placed into a horizontal type blade high-powered stirring grinder to be ground, the mass ratio of the grinding media to the raw zinc powder is 10:1-20:1, the mass of the industrial auxiliary agents is 1.0-3.0% of the mass of the raw zinc powder, the industrial auxiliary agents are one or two of hexadecanoic acid, dodecyl alcohol, ethyl stearate and silane coupling agents, the grinding media are bearing steel balls with the diameters being 5-7 millimeters, vacuum pumping is conducted firstly, and then inert gas is fed two times for protection; the ground flaky zinc powder is placed in a mixer, and mixing and passivation are conducted in air; the mixed flaky zinc powder is placed in a cyclone classifier and classified so as to obtain the superfine flaky zinc powder. The metallurgical waste can be used; the superfine flaky zinc powder has the high corrosion resistance, and production cost is reduced.
