About Kilopascal-seconds

The kilopascal-second (kPa·s) equals 1 000 Pa·s, used for highly viscous materials such as bitumen binders, polymer melts, and pitch at processing temperatures. Bitumen (road asphalt) at 60 °C has a dynamic viscosity of 100-10 000 Pa·s = 0.1-10 kPa·s; hot-melt adhesives at application temperature are 10-100 kPa·s. 1 kPa·s = 1 000 Pa·s = 10 000 P.

About Pascal-seconds

The pascal-second (Pa·s) is the SI coherent unit of dynamic viscosity, equal to 1 kg/(m·s) = 1 N·s/m². Honey at 25 °C is ≈2-10 Pa·s; glycerol ≈1.4 Pa·s; bitumen 10⁴-10⁸ Pa·s. It replaced the poise in SI usage and is the standard unit in research and simulation software (CFD, process simulators). 1 Pa·s = 10 P = 1 000 cP.
