Poise to Pascal-seconds
1 Poise = 0.1 Pascal-seconds · fixed factor via physics reference unit model · no offset
Direct Answer
1 Poise equals 0.1 Pascal-seconds
This conversion uses a fixed factor based on physics reference unit model.
For 0.1 Poise, the result equals 0.01 Pascal-seconds.

0.1 Pascal-seconds (Pa-s)
SwitchExplanation
Formula: Pascal-seconds = Poise × 0.1. Why: poise is a CGS dynamic-viscosity unit with a fixed pascal-second equivalent, so the route moves through Pa·s and preserves one deterministic factor.
Poise (P): a CGS viscosity unit equal to exactly 0.1 pascal-seconds.
Pascal-seconds (Pa-s): the SI unit of dynamic viscosity, expressing resistance to shear flow under applied stress.
This route is useful when comparing modern SI dynamic-viscosity values with CGS poise-based references used in older technical and lab literature.
This conversion is purely multiplicative because both units reduce through pascal-seconds using fixed dynamic-viscosity definitions with no offset.

Frequently Asked Questions
What result does this Poise to Pascal-seconds page give for an input of 1?
For an input of 1 Poise, this page gives 0.1 Pascal-seconds.
Does this Poise to Pascal-seconds page use the fixed pascal-second equivalent for poise?
Yes. Poise uses a fixed pascal-second equivalent on this page, so modern SI and older CGS viscosity references stay aligned through one deterministic normalization path.
When would I convert poise to pascal-seconds?
This route is useful when comparing modern SI dynamic-viscosity values with CGS poise-based references used in older technical and lab literature.
How do I reverse Poise to Pascal-seconds?
Use the mirror Pascal-seconds to Poise route; it applies the inverse relationship with the same dynamic-viscosity assumptions.
