Abstract In situ polymerization technology is expected to empower the next generation high specific energy lithium batteries with safety and excellent cycling performance. Nevertheless, large‐scale commercial applications of most reported in polymer electrolytes are still full challenges. Owing severe parasitic reactions caused by residual monomers, additional initiators oligomers, using often demonstrate limited capacity, poor performance, insufficient rate capability. However, this issue has not received adequate attention previous reports. Furthermore, design evaluation lack effective guidance unified standards. Herein, development history systematically reviewed critically disclose great Then, from aspects initiators, separators, manufacturing technologies, cycle life evaluation, unprecedentedly a new paradigm provided for upgrading inside batteries. It hoped novel will prompt much more insightful studies, expediting commercialization
