The invention discloses a polyphenylene sulfide production method, which comprises the following active ingredients: water-containing sodium sulfide, p-dichlorobenzene, phase solvent, solvent, and auxiliaries, wherein the phase solvent adopts 2-dimethyl benzoyl isocyanate, and the auxiliaries adopt chlorinated polyethylene. The polyphenylene sulfide production method concretely comprises the following steps: firstly, drying and dewatering the water-containing sodium sulfide, phase solvent, solvent, and auxiliaries, wherein the dewatering time lasts 30-50min, and the temperature is at 150-175DEG C; adding the p-dichlorobenzene after drying and dewatering, filtering after filtering, adding washing liquor while filtering, and filtering and rying to obtain polyphenylene sulfide. Through the mode, the invention can provide a polyphenylene sulfide production method, which is simple in operation steps, and easy to realize, the purity of polyphenylene sulfide can be controlled to the greatest extent during reaction, more refuses cannot be generated during reaction, and thus the environment can be effectively protected.
