Polylactide‐modified nanodiamond particles (n‐DP‐ g ‐PLA) are prepared by sodium‐hydride‐activated nanodiamond‐initated anionic ring‐opening polymerization. Activated nanodiamond particles repel each other, preventing agglomeration during the polymerization. This universal modification provides a platform for the functionalization of all types of nanoparticles containing hydroxyl groups.
