Concentrated starch solutions (typically 50%) exhibit strong
shear hardening properties: they almost turn into solid when they are forced
to flow. A long liquid filament is however formed when a drop of such a
liquid drips from a pipette. The filament finally breaks into smaller
satellite droplets.
