Convert Millipoises to Pascal-seconds
Convert Millipoises (mP) to Pascal-seconds (Pa·s) instantly and accurately.
Conversion Formula
Pa·s = mP × 0.0001
About Millipoises
The millipoise (mP) equals 10⁻⁴ Pa·s, an intermediate CGS unit between the micropascal-second gas range and the centipoise liquid range. It is occasionally used in older European scientific literature and in the textile industry for sizing-solution viscosity. Air at 20 °C is ≈ 0.185 mP; a 0.5% polymer solution might read 5-20 mP. 1 mP = 10⁻⁴ Pa·s = 0.1 cP.
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.
