poise to micropascal second
Convert poise (P) to micropascal second (μPa·s). Use an editable dynamic viscosity converter, conversion formula, and reference table.
1 P = 100,000 μPa·s
Conversion formula
One poise equals 100,000 micropascal second. Multiply your value in poise by this factor to get micropascal second. For the reverse conversion, divide by the same factor.
Worked example
To convert 5 poise:5 × 100,000 = 500,000 μPa·s

About these measurements
Dynamic viscosity describes resistance to shear flow.
The base reference used here is the pascal second. One poise is 0.1 base units; one micropascal second is 0.000001 base units.
Important distinctions
Compound units must match the quantity and dimension. Temperature intervals use size factors rather than temperature offsets. Calorie and BTU entries use the explicit definitions shown.
Precision
The converter uses stored conversion factors and floating-point arithmetic. Results display up to ten significant digits, switching to scientific notation for very small or large values. Keep the precision of your original measurement when reporting results.
Common questions
How do I convert P to μPa·s?
Multiply the quantity in P by 100,000. You can also type the value into the converter above.
Can I reverse the conversion?
Yes. Use the swap button or open the micropascal second to poise converter.
