About Grams-force per centimetre

The gram-force per centimetre (gf/cm) equals g_n × 10⁻³ / 10⁻² = 0.980665 N/m - a gravitational metric unit that appeared in early tensiometry where ring and plate instruments were calibrated in grams. 1 gf/cm ≈ 0.9807 N/m ≈ 980.7 mN/m, close to but slightly less than 1 N/m. Rarely used after SI adoption. 1 gf/cm = 0.980665 N/m.

About Microjoules per square metre

The microjoule per square metre (µJ/m²) equals 10⁻⁶ N/m - the surface-energy-per-area form, numerically identical to µN/m since [J/m²] = [N/m] exactly. Used in surface physics for low-energy interface characterisation and in thermodynamic modelling of cryogenic films. 1 µJ/m² = 1 µN/m = 10⁻³ mJ/m².
