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.

About Millinewtons per metre

The millinewton per metre (mN/m) equals 10⁻³ N/m, the most widely used practical unit for liquid surface tension worldwide. Water at 20 °C: 72.8 mN/m; ethanol: 22.1 mN/m; mercury: 485 mN/m; olive oil: ~32 mN/m. Numerically identical to dyn/cm, erg/cm² and mJ/m². 1 mN/m = 10⁻³ N/m.
