Surface-templated evaporation-driven supraparticle synthesis is a versatile method for supraparticle fabrication. A supraparticle is formed by drying droplet of a colloidal dispersion on liquid repellent surfaces, allowing precise control of the size and mean composition of the supraparticles. The crucial factor determining the morphology is the motion of the contact line of the dispersion droplet on the liquid repellent surface. Here, we study effects of (i) the apparent contact angle and (ii) the contact line friction of a droplet on the shape of the supraparticle. In order to change the initial apparent contact angle of the dispersion droplet a surfactant was added to decrease surface tension. In addition, two different liquid repellent surfaces were used: a polydimethysiloxane (PDMS) grafted surface and a lubricated surface. Both surfaces exhibited distinctly different contact line friction during evaporation. As the initial contact angle of a droplet decreases and friction of a contact line increases, flatter supraparticles are fabricated. By using this simple manipulation principle, eventually, various shapes of supraparticles can be obtained, such as mushroom, hemispherical, convex lens, and disk shapes. This study presents fundamental and critical information that allow us to manipulate the shape of a supraparticle via surface-templated evaporation-driven synthesis that increases the scalability of supraparticles for use in a wide range of applications.
