How to convert Poise to Centipoise
Multiply the poise value by 100: 1 P = 100 cP. Going the other way, 1 cP = 0.01 P, so divide by 100 or use the Centipoise to Poise converter.
About these units
Poise (P)
The poise is the CGS unit of dynamic viscosity, exactly 0.1 pascal-second.
Centipoise (cP)
A centipoise is one hundredth of a poise, exactly 1 millipascal-second. It is the traditional unit for liquids; water is about 1 cP at 20 °C.
