Abstract

Dispersion of colloidal particles in water or oil is extensively desired for industrial and environmental applications. However, it often strongly depends on indispensable assistance of chemical surfactants or introduction of nanoprotrusions onto the particle surface. Here we demonstrate the omnidispersity of hydrophilic-hydrophobic heterostructure particles (HL-HBPs), synthesized by a surface heterogeneous nanostructuring strategy. Photo-induced force microscopy (PiFM) and adhesion force images both indicate the heterogeneous distribution of hydrophilic domains and hydrophobic domains on the particle surface. These alternating domains allow HL-HBPs to be dispersed in various solvents with different polarity and boiling point. The HL-HBPs can efficiently adsorb organic dyes from water and release them into organic solvents within several seconds. The surface heterogeneous nanostructuring strategy provides an unconventional approach to achieve omnidispersion of colloidal particles beyond surface modification, and the omnidispersible HL-HBPs demonstrate superior capability for dye recycle merely by solvent exchange. These omnidispersible HL-HBPs show great potentials in industrial process and environmental protection.
