Preferred Label : equilibrium film;
IUPAC definition : A liquid film of thickness, or thicknesses, at which it is stable or metastable with
respect to small thickness changes. Unless the area of the film is small, its composition
may not be the same over its area and the (metastable) equilibrium thickness may be
characteristic of the local condition only.;
