centipoise to dekapoise
Please provide values below to convert centipoise [cP] to dekapoise [daP], or change ↔.
centipoise [cP]
Definition: A unit of viscosity equal to 0.01 poises.
Historyandorigin: A common subunit of the poise, frequently used in everyday viscosity measurements.
CurrentUse: Common in industries such as cosmetics, food, and pharmaceuticals to measure viscosity.
funfact: Water at 20°C has a viscosity of about 1 centipoise, making this unit a key reference for fluid consistency.
dekapoise [daP]
Definition: A unit of viscosity equal to 10 poises.
Historyandorigin: Based on the poise unit, with the 'deka-' prefix meaning a factor of 10.
CurrentUse: Used in scientific fields for highly viscous liquids.
funfact: The dekapoise is rarely encountered, as more common units like centipoise are often used instead.

How to Convert centipoise to dekapoise
1 centipoise [cP] = 0.001 dekapoise [daP]
1 dekapoise [daP] = 1000 centipoise [cP]
we use cross multiplication method
centipoise [cP] → dekapoise [daP]
1 → 0.001
1.5 → ?( suppose x)
=>1.5*0.001=1*x
by simplifying
x=0.0015
