The invention relates to the field of office supplies for science education, and discloses a novel coloring agent for the science education. The novel coloring agent for the science education is characterized by being prepared from, by mass, 5-20 parts of methyl alcohol, 7-10 parts of ethyl alcohol, 6-12 parts of acetonitrile, 9-15 parts of acetic acid, 8-12 parts of dimethyl sulfoxide, 6-10 parts of N,N-dimethyl formamide, 11-20 parts of isopropyl alcohol, 7-21 parts of cyclohexane, 9-22 parts of concentrated nitric acid, 2-11 parts of hydrogen peroxide, 13-22 parts of ethylene glycol monomethyl ether, 2-19 parts of phenolphthalein, 1-5 parts of a thickening agent, 2-6 parts of white oil, 3-9 parts of glycerol, 11-40 parts of water, 2-8 parts of silicon dioxide, 5-26 parts of edible alcohol, 3-12 parts of sodium hydroxide, 1-20 parts of a color-fixing agent, 2-25 parts of stabilizer, 7-22 parts of corrosion inhibitor, 5-19 parts of a wetting agent, 3-20 parts of an anti-corrosion agent and 2-5 parts of glue. When the novel coloring agent for the science education is used in printing coating, the novel coloring agent is lasting, sanitary, clean, environmentally friendly and free of pollution to the environment, all the used materials are low in price, and the production cost is reduced; the coloring agent can be made into multiple colors such as red, blue and purple through different proportions of all the components such as the phenolphthalein and the edible alcohol; meanwhile, the used components such as the phenolphthalein and the edible alcohol are harmless to a human body, healthy and environmentally friendly, and the physical and psychological health of a reader is guaranteed.
