convertimate Vapor permeance

Nanograms per pascal second square meter to US perms

Type a value in ng/(Pa·s·m²) to get it in perm instantly.

0.01741perm

That's 1.74× as open as aluminum foil, while polythene sheet is 3.4× higher. That is a class I vapor barrier: essentially nothing gets through.

What it means

How much vapor gets through?

Permeance belongs to a material of a stated thickness. Permeability — perm-inches — belongs to the material itself, and must be divided by the thickness.

The math

How to convert ng/(Pa·s·m²) to perm

To convert nanograms per pascal second square meter to US perms, multiply by 0.0174057.

Example: 1 ng/(Pa·s·m²) × 0.0174057 = 0.0174057 perm.

In the other direction, 1 perm = 57.4525 ng/(Pa·s·m²).
