Mesoporous materials are potentially used in catalysis

absorption and separation. Lately

researchers applied the order channel of the material as microreactor for monomer polymerization.Many polymerizations were carried out within the channel

including free radical polymerization and non-free radical polymerization.The latest 20 yearʾs progress of the non-free radical polymerizations in the channel of mesoporous molecular sieve was reviewed.These polymerizations included the oxidative polymerization

coordination polymerization

condensation polymerization

ringopening polymerization and ionic polymerization.Some effects on the polymerization and polymer composite were discussed.The application fields of the obtained polymer/mesoporous composites were overlooked.
