Conversion Formulas
N/m → dyn/cm: dyn/cm = N/m × 1000
N/m → mN/m: mN/m = N/m × 1000
dyn/cm → N/m: N/m = dyn/cm ÷ 1000
mN/m → N/m: N/m = mN/m ÷ 1000
FAQ
What is surface tension?
Surface tension is the cohesive force between liquid molecules at the surface, creating a 'skin' effect. It's measured in newtons per meter (N/m).
What's the surface tension of water?
Water at 20°C has a surface tension of about 0.0728 N/m or 72.8 dyn/cm.
What units are supported?
This converter supports newtons per meter (N/m), dynes per centimeter (dyn/cm), millinewtons per meter (mN/m), pound-force per inch (lbf/in), and more.
