Mineralization capable of growing inorganic nanostructures e?ciently, orderly,
and spontaneously shows great potential for application in the construction of
high-performance organic–inorganic composites. As a thermodynamically
spontaneous solid-phase crystallization reaction involving dual organic and
inorganic components, mineralization allows for the self-assembly of
sophisticated and exclusive nanostructures within a polymer matrix. It results
in a diversity of functions such as enhanced strength, toughness, electrical
conductivity, selective permeability, and biocompatibility. While there are
previous reviews discussing the progress of mineralization reactions, many of
them overlook the signi?cant bene?ts of interfacial regulation and
functionalization that come from the incorporation of mineralized structures
into polymers. Focusing on di?erent means of assembly of mineralized
nanostructures in polymer, the work analyzes their design principles and
implementation strategies. Then, their di?erent advantages and
disadvantages are analyzed by combining nanostructures with organic
substrates as well as involving the basis of di?erent functionalizations. It is
anticipated to provide insights and guidance for the future development of
mineralized polymer composites and their application designs.
