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.

Poundal Second per Square Foot
pdl·s/ft²
Definition
The poundal second per square foot is an imperial unit of dynamic viscosity, representing the resistance of a fluid to flow when a force of one poundal per square foot is applied.
History/Origin
This unit originates from the imperial system of measurements, where force is measured in poundals and area in square feet. It was commonly used in engineering applications in the United States and other countries using imperial units.
Current Use
Still used in some engineering contexts, particularly in the United States and other countries that use imperial units. It provides a practical measure for engineers working with force-based calculations in imperial units.
