๐งด Viscosity Converter
Pascal-second (Paยทs)0.001
Poise (P)0.01
Centipoise (cP)1
Convert between pascal-seconds (Paยทs), poise (P), and centipoise (cP) โ units of a liquid's dynamic viscosity โ in real time. Useful for chemistry and engineering homework, or checking product specs for lubricants and paints.
How to use
- Enter a value into any viscosity unit field (Paยทs, P, or cP).
- The converted values appear instantly in the other unit fields.
FAQ
What's the viscosity of water?
Water at room temperature (around 20ยฐC) has a viscosity of about 1 cP (0.001 Paยทs) โ a handy reference point for gauging other liquids.
What's the difference between poise and centipoise?
1 poise (P) equals 100 centipoise (cP). cP is the unit most commonly used for everyday liquid viscosity.
Does this handle kinematic viscosity (centistokes)?
No โ this tool only handles dynamic viscosity. Kinematic viscosity also depends on density, so it needs a separate conversion.
