Pascal Second (Pa·s)
The pascal second (Pa·s) is the SI unit of dynamic viscosity — resistance to shear flow under an applied stress.
Pascal seconds quantify fluid resistance in CFD, polymer processing, and lubrication engineering calculations.

How to convert
Exact conversion factors in both directions, plus a worked example.
1 Pa·s = 1000 cP
1 cP = 0.001 Pa·s
To convert pascal second to centipoise, multiply by 1000.
To convert centipoise to pascal second, multiply by 0.001.
Example: convert 10 Pa·s to cP
10 × 1000 = 10000 cP
About these units
Short background on the units used in this conversion.
Centipoise (cP)
Centipoise (cP) equals 0.001 Pa·s. Water at 20°C has a dynamic viscosity of approximately 1 centipoise.
Centipoise is the everyday lab and industry unit for liquid viscosity — from water (~1 cP) to motor oils (hundreds of cP).
Frequently asked questions
How many centipoises are in one pascal second?
One pascal second equals 1,000 centipoises. Multiply your pascal seconds value by 1,000 to convert to centipoises.
What is the conversion formula?
cP = Pa·s × 1,000The reverse is
Pa·s = cP × 0.001, using the same exact factors as this converter.Is this Pascal Second to Centipoise converter private?
