Chemical modification was performed for macroporous crosslinked chloromethylated polystyrene. The obtained HJ‐K01 resin was used to remove phenol from aqueous solution, and its adsorption behaviors for phenol were compared with commercial Amberlite XAD‐4. The results indicate that methylamino groups were successfully uploaded onto the surface of the HJ‐K01 resin and the adsorption capacity of phenol onto the HJ‐K01 resin was much larger than that onto XAD‐4. Furthermore, the original phenol solution was suitable for the adsorption, the adsorption isotherms could be fitted by the Freundlich model, and its kinetic curves could be characterized by a pseudo‐second‐order rate equation. The fixed‐bed column adsorption demonstrated that the HJ‐K01 resin was an excellent resin for the removal of phenol. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci, 2011
