Currently, microspheres with high adsorption capacity play a crucial role in dye adsorption and drug loading. In this study, 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidinyl-1-oxyl (TEMPO)-oxidized cellulose nanofibrils (TOCN) could be used to form nanocellulose microspheres by the emulsion method. The prepared hydrangea-like nanocellulose microspheres presented a stable three-dimensional network porous structure and exhibited excellent adsorption properties. The TOCN microspheres had a high adsorption capacity for methylene blue (MB) and methyl orange (MO) with the optimal adsorption capacity of 412.1 mg g⁻¹ and 286.5 mg g⁻¹ under neutral conditions, respectively. The TOCN microspheres displayed excellent adsorption selectivity on MB/MO mixed dyes, which could be used to selectively adsorb MB. Besides, the encapsulation rate of the positively charged drug doxorubicin hydrochloride (DOX) was as high as 93 %, and the drug loading capacity was as high as 34.5 %. Overall, our prepared nanocellulose microspheres had great potential for application in dye adsorption and drug delivery systems.
