Centipoise

cP

Definition

The centipoise is a commonly used unit of dynamic viscosity, representing 10^-2 poise. It is widely used in industry for measuring the viscosity of various fluids.

History/Origin

This unit was created by applying the centi- prefix to the poise, providing a convenient scale for measuring low to moderate viscosities in industrial applications.

Current Use

Extensively used in the petroleum industry, chemical engineering, and food processing for measuring the viscosity of oils, polymers, and other fluids. It is often more convenient than the pascal second for practical applications.

Nanopoise

nP

Definition

The nanopoise is a unit of dynamic viscosity, representing 10^-9 poise. It is used for measuring the viscosity of extremely low-viscosity fluids such as gases and very thin liquids.

History/Origin

This unit was created by applying the nano- prefix to the poise, providing a scale for measuring extremely low viscosities in scientific and engineering contexts.

Current Use

Used in specialized scientific and engineering applications where materials have extremely low viscosities, such as gases and very thin liquids.
