Instead of focusing on bulk phase or individual molecule as the classical chemistry, the condensed-matter chemistry pays special attention to the multi-level structured condensed matters. The primary topics of the condensed-matter chemistry include but not limited to fundamental chemical properties and functionalities of condensed matters and their chemical reactions, construction principles of the multi-level structures, and the structure-property relationship, which is also the interests of the fundamental research in biomineralization. Biomineralization is the process by which organic matrices regulate the formation of inorganic minerals, which can build the biological condensed matter with multi-levelled structures and distinct functions(such as protection, sensing, movement, etc.). Inspired by the construction strategy and the structure-property relationship in biominerals, many biomimetic condensed materials with advanced functions have been fabricated via biomimetic mineralization. In this review, from the context of condensed-matter chemistry, we introduce the fundaments and some important findings and understandings of bio- and biomimetic-mineralization, and mainly overview the fabrication and advanced functions of novel biomimetic materials by the cross-linking of inorganic ionic oligomers developed in our lab, which is inspired by biomineralization. We believe that biomineralization provides many good examples for the research and development of the new scientific discipline of condensed-matter chemistry and in the same while, biomineralization will also benefit from the guidance from the perspective of condensed-matter chemistry.
