A series of functional hyper-cross-linked resins were successfully synthesized by incorporating anhydride, sulfoacid and menthanone groups into post-cross-linked polymer. They were evaluated for adsorption of 2-amino-4-methylbenzothiazole (2A4MBT) from aqueous solution. The five resins were efficient for adsorption of 2A4MBT from aqueous solution. The adsorption process includes both physical adsorption and irreversible chemical adsorption. The absolute value of adsorption enthalpy had an order of PRLMR (3.24 kJ mol(-1)) < IDLMR (7.96 kJ mol(-1)) < TMAMR (9.72 kJ mol(-1)) < PAMR (-13.1 kJ mol(-1)) < SAMR (21.8 kJ mol(-1)). Phthalic anhydride-modified resin could be regenerated by 10% HCl/methanol solution after adsorption equilibrium.
