Resumo

The break-up of long uniform liquid threads, suspended at rest in an immiscible viscous liquid, by the development of stationary symmetrical capillary waves is described. The wavelengths and rates of growth of the disturbances for systems having a range of viscosity ratio (thread liquid): (suspending liquid) from 0.03 to 6.7 showed good agreement with Tomotika's theory. When surface-active agents were present, there was some deviation from the theory, presumably from the development of a viscoelastic interfacial film.
