[Purpose/significance] The problems such as sharing willingness,privacy protection,attribution of data property rights of scientific data sharing participants seriously restrict the sustainable development of scientific data sharing. [Method/process] On the basis of combing the research progress of scientific data sharing motivation obstacles and block chain,the applicability of block chain for scientific data sharing is expounded from the perspectives of subject,object and function. Scientific data sharing hierarchical block chain architecture is presented. The realization mechanisms of interactive information,data block,consensus incentive mechanism,smart contract of scientific data sharing block chain are described. The dilemma and development countermeasure of interactive data description,security and consensus game are proposed. [Result/conclusion]The innovative application of block chain technology in scientific data sharing ecological environment can further promote the formation and development of scientific data sharing environment
