Abstract
Fluoride nanoparticles with multiform crystal structures and morphologies were successfully synthesized by a facile, effective, and environmentally friendly coprecipitation method. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) was used to characterize the nanoparticles. The nanoparticles were modified by PEI, CTAB, PAA and Ci, respectively. It was feasible for function by -COOH and -NH2 groups, due to the surface modification. Moreover, different surface modifications of the nanoparticles were examined. The possible formation mechanisms for fluoride nanoparticles with surface modification were presented in detail. More importantly, it is expected to be widely applied to biomedicine.
