The invention provides a preparation method of an oxidation nanocellulose adsorbing material. The preparation method comprises the following steps of conducting pretreatment and then cleaning cellulose; and under the catalytic action of 2, 2, 6, 6-tetramethyl piperidine-nitrogen-oxide and sodium bromide, conducting an oxidation reaction on obtain cellulose under the action of an oxidizing agent, so that oxidation nanocellulose is obtained, wherein sodium hypochlorite serves as the oxidizing agent; mixing the nanocellulose with an organic solution containing amino high molecules, then conducting centrifugation, then mixing the mixture with a cross-linking agent, and conducting a reaction, so that the oxidation nanocellulose adsorbing material is obtained. By means of the preparation method, the specific surface area of the cellulose is increased, the contactable performance of heavy metal pollutants and adsorbent is improved, the surface of the material can have a large number of adsorption functional groups, and heavy metal ions can be aggregated to the surface of the adsorbent from a sewage system through the complexation effect and the electrostatic effect. The invention further provides the oxidation nanocellulose adsorbing material.
