Preferred Label : surface of tension;
IUPAC definition : The mechanical properties of an interfacial layer between two fluid phases may be
expressed in terms of those of a geometrical surface of uniform tension called the
surface of tension, whose location is dependent on the distribution of the stress
tensor within the interfacial layer.;
