Abstract
The major directions of applying polymer nanocomposite materials for the protection of the environment and humans are considered in the review. The potential of using highly porous materials and cross-linked hydrogels with incorporated nanoparticles for the purification of waste and natural waters from heavy metals, dyes, and antibiotics is demonstrated. Highly porous polymer materials with magnetic nanoparticles can be used as efficient sorbents for oil-spill cleanup from the surface of water bodies. Incorporation of anisotropic carbon and metal nanoparticles into highly porous polymer materials is a promising strategy for creating nanocomposite materials for electromagnetic radiation shielding.
