We study the folding instability of a viscous thread surrounded by a less viscous miscible liquid flowing from a square to a diverging microchannel. Because of the change in the flow introduced by the diverging channel, the viscous thread minimizes viscous dissipation by oscillating to form bends rather than by simply dilating. The folding frequency and the thread diameter can be related to the volume flow rates and thus to the characteristic shear rate. Diffusive mixing at the boundary of the thread can significantly modify the folding flow morphologies. This microfluidic system enables us to control the bending of the thread and to enhance mixing between liquids having significantly different viscosities.
