The invention provides a vermiculite-kieselguhr compounded water absorption foot pad and a preparing method thereof. The vermiculite-kieselguhr compounded water absorption foot pad is prepared from, by weight, 40-70 parts of kieselguhr, 10-25 parts of expanded vermiculite, 15-30 parts of calcium hydroxide and 5-20 parts of wood pulp fibers. The vermiculite-kieselguhr compounded water absorption foot pad has the advantages of being super-high in water absorbing capacity, quick in moisture discharging and drying performance, resistant to pest, corrosion and mould and the like, is of a firm and stable layer-net porous structure, and has the powerful adsorption purification performance, dust, particles, viruses, hazardous substances and peculiar smells floated in air can be absorbed and decomposed, and therefore the air purifying effect is achieved. According to the preparing method of the foot pad, the structure of the product prepared with the method is of an interconnecting and engaging structure like a spider web, countless micro holes are formed in the product, and compared with the raw material, the absorption effect of the product is enhanced, and the product has the advantages of being convenient, simple, easy to operate and the like, and is suitable for mass production and wide application.
