Millipascal-seconds to centipoise

Type a value in mPa·s to get it in cP instantly.

1,000cP

That's 10× as thick as olive oil, while honey is 10× thicker. That is about 1,000× as thick as water.

What it means

How thick is that?

This is dynamic viscosity. Kinematic viscosity (cSt) divides by density and is a different quantity.

The math

How to convert mPa·s to cP

To convert millipascal-seconds to centipoise, multiply by 1.

Example: 1,000 mPa·s × 1 = 1,000 cP.

In the other direction, 1 cP = 1 mPa·s.

The units

About these units

Millipascal-seconds (mPa·s)

A thousandth of a pascal-second, numerically identical to the centipoise.

Centipoise (cP)

A hundredth of a poise, the industry standard. Water is 1 cP by happy accident.
