The invention discloses a preparation method and usage of a modified attapulgite adsorption material. The method comprises the following steps: modifying attapulgite which has undergone purification and acid activation with an amino-silane coupling agent so as to introduce amino onto the surface of attapulgite; subjecting amino and excess acrylic acid ester to a Michael addition reaction so as tointroduce ester groups, subjecting introduced ester groups and polyethylene polyamine to a Michael addition reaction, carrying out underpressure distillation to remove a solvent and excess reactants,and carrying out vacuum drying, grinding and sieving to obtain a finished product. According to the invention, polyethylene polyamine or alcamine compounds are bonded to the surface of attapulgite through covalent bonds, thereby substantially improving adsorption performance of attapulgite to metal ions.
