Hectopoise
hP
Definition
The hectopoise is a unit of dynamic viscosity, representing 10^2 poise. It is used for measuring the viscosity of moderately viscous materials in various applications.
History/Origin
This unit was created by applying the hecto- prefix to the poise, providing a scale for measuring moderately high viscosities in scientific and engineering contexts.
Current Use
Used in various applications where materials have moderately high viscosities, such as certain oils, polymers, and thick fluids.

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.
