- Abstract
- Surface-templated evaporation driven (STED) method is a promising method to fabricate supraparticles with various sizes, porosities, and shapes by drying colloidal dispersion drops on liquid repellent surfaces. Until now, for the method, only spherical shaped colloidal particles have been used as primary colloids. Here, we introduce six different shapes of nano-colloidal dispersions for the STED method: nanocubics, nanoplates, nanosheets, coffin-shaped nanoparticles (NPs), spherical NPs, and aggregates of NPs. It is confirmed that the shape and size of the primary colloids have little effect for drying the dispersion drop when a single component colloidal dispersion is dried. For heterogeneous supraparticles with composite material assembly, still the shape of the colloids has no influences, while the size and dispersity play roles for tuning the morphology of the supraparticles. From the results, we propose a way to fabricate homogeneous mixture, core/shell, and Janus core/shell structures of the supraparticles depending on the size and dispersity of the mixture colloidal dispersion. Indeed, knowledge on the effects of types of colloids would be of great importance for tailoring supraparticles.
