Surface Tension Converter

Comprehensive Surface Tension Converter

Surface tension is a key property of liquids, measuring the force per unit length acting along the surface of a fluid. Our Surface Tension Converter allows you to convert between various units—from the SI standard (newton per meter) to commonly used units like millinewton per meter, gram-force per centimeter, dyne per centimeter, and even imperial units like poundal/inch and pound-force/inch. This tool is essential for engineers and scientists working in fields such as material science, fluid dynamics, and chemical engineering.

Welche Einheiten sind abgedeckt?

Our converter supports a full range of surface tension units with conversion factors defined relative to newton/meter [N/m]:

• Newton/meter [N/m] (Basiseinheit)

• Millinewton/meter [mN/m]: 1 mN/m = 0.001 N/m.

• Gram-force/centimeter: 1 gf/cm ≈ 0.980665 N/m.

• Dyne/centimeter [dyn/cm]: 1 dyn/cm = 0.001 N/m.

• Erg/square centimeter: 1 erg/cm² = 0.001 N/m.

• Erg/square millimeter: 1 erg/mm² = 0.1 N/m.

• Poundal/inch [pdl/in]: 1 pdl/in ≈ 5.443108491 N/m.

• Pound-force/inch [lbf/in]: 1 lbf/in ≈ 175.1268369864 N/m.

Wie funktioniert es?

Der Konverter arbeitet in einem zweistufigen Verfahren:

1. Convert to Base Unit:
   The input value is first converted into newton per meter using the conversion factor of the selected “From” unit.

2. In Zieleinheit umrechnen:
   The base value is then converted into your desired “To” unit using its corresponding conversion factor.

This approach ensures accurate and consistent surface tension conversions for all your applications.
