The present invention enables organically modifying a starting particle with a variety of molecular structures, such as AlN,
TiN, Si3N4, or SiC, uniformly on the entire surface of the starting particle using a
common method to easily provide an organically modified inorganic fine particle with further improved dispersibility in a
solvent.The present invention is a method for producing an organically modified inorganic fine particle. The method includes: forming an
oxide layer, an oxyhydroxide layer, and / or a
hydroxide layer on a surface of at least one or more kinds of starting particle selected from inorganic nitrides, inorganic carbides, inorganic sulfides, and insoluble salts; and organically modifying the starting particle, on which the
oxide layer, the oxyhydroxide layer, and / or the
hydroxide layer is formed, in a
reaction field of a supercritical, subcritical, or
gas phase aqueous
solvent to obtain an organically modified inorganic fine particle.
