The present invention provides a preparation method of a durable inorganic particle board, including the following steps: (1) mixing heat-vulcanized silicone rubber with an organic solvent to obtain a sealant solution; (2) mixing calcium chloride, sodium dodecyl sulfate and water to obtain a curing agent solution; (3) spraying the sealant solution on the surface of a shaving to mix with the curing agent solution, an inorganic adhesive and water to obtain a mixture; (4) sequentially laying and hot-pressing the mixture to obtain a pre-molded material; and (5) sequentially curing and drying the pre-molded material to obtain the durable inorganic particle board. The present invention sprays the heat-vulcanized silicone rubber on the surface of the shaving; then through the action of a hot-pressing process, the heat-vulcanized silicone rubber is sufficiently vulcanized on the surface of the shaving to form a dense film on the surface of the shaving, so that moisture will not come into contact with the shaving even when the inorganic particle board is used in a humid environment; at the same time, due to the seal of the heat-vulcanized silicone rubber film, the shaving lacks oxygen, and fungi such as decay fungi lose their breeding environment, thereby avoiding the decay of the shaving and significantly prolonging the durability of the inorganic particle board to extend a service life thereof.
