What does one newton per square millimeter represent?

It represents a unit of pressure equal to one newton applied over one square millimeter, exactly equivalent to 1 megapascal.

Where is dekapascal commonly used?

Dekapascal is commonly used in audiology for middle-ear pressure, HVAC system diagnostics, cleanroom filter monitoring, and low-pressure sensor calibration.

How do I convert from N/mm² to daPa?

Multiply the value in newton per square millimeter by 100,000 to get the equivalent pressure in dekapascal.
