Abstract
Magnetic polymer microspheres with unique magnetic properties and excellent physical chemical properties, such as strong stability, high biocompatibility, and exclusive adsorption properties, are widely used in biology and medicine, as well as show unique advantages in environmental fields. This article aims to provide recent preparation and characterization methods of magnetic polymer microspheres and their applications in environmental fields. Conclusions and future trends are also presented.
