Conversion Formula
abS/cm = kS/m × 1.000000000e-8
About Kilosiemens per metre
The kilosiemens per metre (kS/m) equals 10³ S/m, spanning liquid metals and very concentrated electrolytes. Molten NaCl at 900 °C ≈3.6 kS/m; liquid mercury ≈1 000 kS/m; bismuth melt ≈750 kS/m. Magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) channel design and induction heating studies express melt conductivities in kS/m. 1 kS/m = 10³ S/m = 10 S/cm.
About Absiemens per centimetre
The absiemens per centimetre (abS/cm) is the CGS-EMU unit of electrical conductivity, exactly 10¹¹ S/m (= 100 GS/m). It appears in nineteenth-century electromagnetic engineering texts alongside abohms and abamperes; no real bulk material at ambient conditions approaches 1 abS/cm. The figure arises in theoretical conductor-scaling and historical performance tables. 1 abS/cm = 10¹¹ S/m.
