Centipoise to Millipoise Converter

Use this page to convert centipoise values into millipoise, with background details, formulas, a worked example, and a quick conversion table.

Centipoise

One centipoise is equal to 0.001 pascal seconds.

History: Centipoise became popular because water near room temperature is close to 1 cP.

Current use: Used for oils, coatings, polymers, food products, water, and lab viscosity measurements.

Also written as cP.

Millipoise

One millipoise is equal to 0.0001 pascal seconds.

History: Millipoise follows decimal CGS scaling below the poise.

Current use: Used for low-viscosity fluids and reference-table compatibility.

Also written as mP.
