Surface-initiated atom transfer radical polymerization (SI-ATRP) is a powerful tool that allows for the synthesis of organic–inorganic hybrid nanomaterials with high potential applications in many disciplines. This review presents synthetic achievements and modifications of nanoparticles via SI-ATRP described in literature last decade. The work mainly focuses on the research development of silica, gold and iron polymer-grafted nanoparticles as well as nature-based materials like nanocellulose. Moreover, typical single examples of nanoparticles modification, i.e., ZnO, are presented. The organic–inorganic hybrid systems received according to the reversible deactivation radical polymerization (RDRP) approach with drastically reduced catalyst complex concentration indicate a wide range of applications of materials including biomedicine and microelectronic devices.

“…These polymers were synthesised in a normal fume hood with no control over humidity, resulting in some unavoidable deactivation during the polymerisation. This factor and initial deactivation of the initiator, which is typical for GTP synthesis, 6,[27][28][29][30][31][32][33][34][35][36] cause the M n to increase more than the M th . The Đ remained low (<1.3) at all times during the polymerisation for both polymers.…”
