Dynamic viscosity converter
Convert Pa·s, mPa·s, poise, centipoise and lb/(ft·s).
This tool lets you convert dynamic viscosity between pascal-seconds, poise, centipoise and equivalent units.

Quick explanation
Enter a positive or zero dynamic viscosity, then choose the source and target units.
The result is recalculated automatically in the browser.

Convert kinematic viscosity
For stokes and centistokes, use the kinematic viscosity converter.
Additional information
What is dynamic viscosity?
Dynamic viscosity describes a fluid’s internal resistance to flow. The reference unit is the pascal-second, written Pa·s.
Poise and centipoise
Poise and centipoise are still common in some fields. As a useful reference, 1 cP = 1 mPa·s.
Dynamic or kinematic?
Dynamic viscosity should not be confused with kinematic viscosity, which also depends on fluid density.
No data transfer
Conversions are performed locally, with no call to the AppErgo server.
