There are unequivocal shreds of evidence that polymers touched every sphere of life. They are very versatile and used in many applications depending on the specific intrinsic properties of the materials. Over the last few decades, there has been growing evidence that applying polymer materials in water-purifying has been adopted worldwide. Water fluorine toxicity is challenging us to develop water-purifying polymeric materials. We are presenting the polymeric adsorbent and membrane materials advancement in terms of defluoridation of water.
