What Is This Tool?
This converter allows you to change dynamic viscosity values from femtopoise (fP) to attopoise (aP), units that measure extremely small viscosities often used in scientific and nanoscale applications.
How to Use This Tool?
-
Input the viscosity value in femtopoise (fP).
-
Select attopoise (aP) as the target unit.
-
Click convert to get the equivalent value in attopoise.
Key Features
-
Converts femtopoise to attopoise with ease.
-
Browser-based and accessible online tool.
-
Supports extremely small dynamic viscosity values.
-
Ideal for research in molecular, nanoscale, and ultracold gas phenomena.
Examples
-

Converting to attopoise allows expressing viscosity at a finer scale for detailed molecular and ultracold fluid studies.
Key Terminology
-
Femtopoise (fP)
-
A unit of dynamic viscosity equal to 10^-15 poise, used for measuring extremely low viscosity values.
-
Attopoise (aP)
-
A dynamic viscosity unit equal to 10^-18 poise, applied in molecular- and nanoscale viscosity measurements.
-
Dynamic Viscosity
-
A measure of a fluid's resistance to shear flow, describing how it flows under applied force.
