What is kilogram-force second per square meter used to measure?

It is a non-SI unit of dynamic viscosity quantifying a fluid's resistance to shear deformation or internal friction.

Why convert to attopoise [aP]?

Attopoise is used to express extremely small viscosities typically encountered in molecular and nanoscale studies.

Is this conversion relevant for modern SI measurements?

Kilogram-force second per square meter is less common in modern SI usage, but conversion is useful for legacy data and nanoscale viscosity reporting.
