What does one newton second per square meter represent?

It is the SI unit for dynamic viscosity, measuring a fluid's internal resistance to shearing forces.

Why use nanopoise instead of newton second per square meter?

Nanopoise allows reporting of very small viscosity values with greater resolution, beneficial in microfluidics and similar research fields.

Can this converter help compare CGS and SI viscosity units?

Yes, it facilitates converting from the SI unit to the CGS-derived nanopoise unit, aiding accurate cross-system comparisons.
