A method of preparing radioisotope hybrid nanocomposite particles using a sol-gel reaction, and radioisotope hybrid nanocomposite particles prepared using the same are provided. The method includes preparing a complex precursor using a metal ion and an unshared electron pair reactive compound, growing hybrid nanocomposite particles based on the complex precursor by means of a sol-gel reaction, calcining the nanocomposite particles in the air to remove organic matters present in the nanocomposite particles, and irradiating the nanocomposite particles with neutrons to prepare radioisotope hybrid nanocomposite particles. The radioisotope nanocomposite particles prepared using the method can be used as diagnostic and therapeutic particles in the fields of oil refining, chemistry, cement, agriculture, water resources, environment, ocean, and medicine, and can also be used as a radioisotope tracer for evaluating the risk of nanomaterials.

This invention relates to a method of preparing a radioisotope nanostructure having a ligand-metal framework, and a radioisotope nanostructure prepared thereby. The method of preparing the radioisotope nanostructure of the invention has a simple preparation process and can thus be applied to mass production of a radioisotope nanostructure. Also, because this radioisotope nanostructure is nano-sized spherical particles and has no reactive group, it can be easily dispersed in a fluid, and this nanostructure is physically and chemically stable and thus can be utilized as a radioisotope tracer in the fields of refineries, chemistry, cement, agriculture, water resources, marine, etc. Furthermore, this nanostructure can be used for diagnosis and/or treatment in medical fields, and can be applied to checking whether a nanomaterial is harmful. In addition, this nanostructure is expected to be applicable in a variety of fields using radioisotopes.
