Data Matrix of 60 Pairs of Different Donor and Receiver Liquids

(A) The printing experimental results on 60 pairs of different donor and receiver liquids. The solvents are in the brackets following by the solutes. For example, donor RB (GLY) means GLY (GLYglycerin) is the donor solvent and RB is the donor solute. Other solvents include shell oil (SO), dimethylacetamide (DMAC), dimethylformamide (DMF), formic acid (FA), dichloromethane (DCM), and tetrahydrofuran (THF). The corresponding solutes include polystyrene (PS), polylactic acid (PLA), polyvinyl butyral (PVB), polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP), sunset yellow (SY), carmine (CM) and Sudan red (SD).

(B) The ratio between the volatilization rate of the donor and receiver with regard to the affinity between the donor and receiver. Volatilization rate is the mass reduction of the liquids divided by the elapsed time whereby the liquid is vaporized (Table S2). The affinity is obtained by dividing the value of receding angle by the solubility level of the donor solute in the receiver solvent (Tables S3 and S4). The experiments show that in the cyan shading area, the pattern transfers at the liquid-liquid interface have higher possibilities to be achieved, whereas in the pink shading area some of them may not be achieved.
