Abstract
In this research, synthesis of lithium fluoride (LiF) nanoparticles  by fluorolytic sol-gel method has been studied. Moreover, the effect of lithium ion to fluorine source molar ratio and calcination temperature on particle size and phase of LiF nanoparticles were investigated. Lithium acetate (C2H3LiO2), trifluoroacetic acid (TFA), ethylene glycol monobutyl ether and oleic acid were used as sources of Li+ and F- ions, solvent and growth inhibitor, respectively. Thermal and X-ray diffraction (XRD) analyses as well as field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) were used to investigate thermal behavior of the primary gel and to determine the phase and morphology of samples, respectively. The results showed that the 2: 1 molar ratio of Li+/ TFA and the calcination temperature of 400 °C result in LiF nanoparticles with a mean particle size of 80-100 nm.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of glycyrol (tri-dentate, GLY) and ethylenediamine (double- dentate clay, en) chelating agents on phase and morphology changes of spinel nanoparticles synthesized by sol-gel method. Characterization of samples was performed by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and field-emission scanning electron microscope (FESEM) equipped with energy dispersive X-ray spectrometer (EDX). The results showed that both samples synthesized with GLY and en contain cubic spinel phase. The sample synthesized with ethylenediamine has a pyramidal morphology with particle size in the range of 20-25 nm whereas the specimen prepared with glycerol is spherical with particle size in the range of 20-25 nm. Finally, suggested mechanism for morphological changes of spniel nanoparticles was discussed.
