Dyne Second per Square Centimeter
dyn·s/cm²
Definition
The dyne second per square centimeter is a CGS unit of dynamic viscosity, representing the resistance of a fluid to flow when a force of one dyne per square centimeter is applied.
History/Origin
This unit is part of the centimeter-gram-second (CGS) system of units, which was widely used in physics and chemistry before the adoption of the SI system. It provides a smaller base unit for viscosity measurements.
Current Use
Still used in some scientific contexts, particularly in older literature and certain specialized fields. It is particularly useful for measuring the viscosity of very thin fluids and gases.

Poise
P
Definition
The poise is a unit of dynamic viscosity in the CGS system, named after Jean Léonard Marie Poiseuille. It represents the viscosity of a fluid in which a force of one dyne per square centimeter produces a velocity gradient of one centimeter per second per centimeter.
History/Origin
Named after Jean Léonard Marie Poiseuille, a French physicist who studied fluid flow. The poise was the standard unit of dynamic viscosity in the CGS system and is still widely used in many industries.
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.
