When two fluids don't mix well, they sometimes form strange patterns called "viscous fingering," or Saffman-Taylor instability. Studying these patterns can help scientists understand how to design ...

An evaporating droplet that contains two fluids can sprout fingerlike protrusions or a chain of smaller droplets around its edge, depending on the liquids in the mixture, researchers report ...

Certain liquids do not want to play together: for an easy example, oil and water. If you put these two classic liquids together and try to mix them, the less dense oil will float on top.

The science pros at The King of Random mix liquid oxygen in a bold experiment to reveal its fascinating effects.

Two polymer-containing liquids are then printed onto the surface – one contains clay and the other polymers. Within milliseconds, a thin channel of ~1mm in diameter is formed at the interface.

Two distinctly different liquid states of water Date: November 24, 2020 Source: Stockholm University Summary: Using X-ray lasers, researchers have been able to follow the transformation between ...

This is because food coloring is a polar liquid but oil is nonpolar. If you mix the two, you will see lots of little food-coloring drops dispersed in the oil, but both liquids do not mix.
