Millipoise to Centipoise Converter
Use this page to convert millipoise values into centipoise, with background details, formulas, a worked example, and a quick conversion table.
Conversion formula
1 mP = 0.1 cP
1 cP = 10 mP
Example: 0.001 mP = 0.0001 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.
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.
