The study of the mechanisms laying underneath reactive crystallization is a key subject in a myriad of natural and industrial processes. Here, control on particle nucleation and growth are active topics of research, in which important advances can be highlighted within the last years. While novel mechanisms for crystal nucleation have been recently unveiled, the effects of reagent mixing process and timescales on them, together with the effect of impurities and/or additives present during the reaction, still lack of fundamental comprehension. This work intends to provide a general view on the latest advances made on the critical parameters involved in reactive crystallization processes: nucleation, fast and efficient mixing and use of additives.

在无数的自然和工业过程中，对反应性结晶作用机理的研究是一个关键主题。在此，对颗粒成核和生长的控制是研究的活跃主题，其中重要的进展可以在过去几年中得到强调。尽管最近揭示了晶体成核的新机理，但是试剂混合过程和时间尺度对其的影响以及反应过程中存在的杂质和/或添加剂的影响仍然缺乏基本的理解。这项工作旨在为反应性结晶过程中涉及的关键参数的最新进展提供总体看法：成核，快速有效地混合和使用添加剂。
