centipoise to decipoise
Please provide values below to convert centipoise [cP] to decipoise [dP], 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.
decipoise [dP]
Definition: A unit of viscosity equal to 0.1 poises.
Historyandorigin: Derived from the poise unit, with the 'deci-' prefix indicating a factor of 0.1.
CurrentUse: Used in scientific measurements, particularly for less viscous fluids.
funfact: Used for measuring fluids with low to moderate viscosity, such as light oils.

How to Convert centipoise to decipoise
1 centipoise [cP] = 0.1 decipoise [dP]
1 decipoise [dP] = 10 centipoise [cP]
we use cross multiplication method
centipoise [cP] → decipoise [dP]
1 → 0.1
1.5 → ?( suppose x)
=>1.5*0.1=1*x
by simplifying
x=0.15
