centipoise to centistokes
Please provide values below to convert centipoise [cP] to centistokes [cSt], or change ↔.
centipoise [cP]
Definition: The centipoise is one one-hundredth of a poise and is commonly used to measure the viscosity of liquids.
Historyandorigin: Derived from the poise, it is more practical for measuring the viscosity of common fluids like water and oil.
CurrentUse: The centipoise is frequently used in industries like lubrication, cosmetics, and food science, where it is easier to work with than the larger poise unit.
funfact: Water has a viscosity of about 1 centipoise at 20°C—making it a useful baseline for viscosity measurements!
centistokes [cSt]
Definition: The centistoke is one one-hundredth of a stoke, used to measure the kinematic viscosity of fluids.
Historyandorigin: A smaller unit derived from the stoke, it is used for more precise viscosity measurements in fluid dynamics.
CurrentUse: Widely used in industries such as automotive, lubrication, and food processing.
funfact: Centistokes are commonly used to measure oils, where the viscosity can be very low but still crucial to machine function!

How to Convert centipoise to centistokes
1 centipoise [cP] = 1 centistokes [cSt]
1 centistokes [cSt] = 1 centipoise [cP]
we use cross multiplication method
centipoise [cP] → centistokes [cSt]
1 → 1
1.5 → ?( suppose x)
=>1.5*1=1*x
by simplifying
x=1.5
