What is a hectopoise (hP)?

A hectopoise is a metric multiple of the poise used to measure dynamic viscosity, equal to 100 poise or 10 pascal-seconds.

When should I use exapoise (EP) units?

Exapoise units are used to express extremely high viscosities, often in theoretical or astrophysical contexts.

Why do converted values from hectopoise to exapoise become very small?

Because 1 hectopoise equals 1e-16 exapoise, resulting in very tiny numerical values when converting.
