Surface Tension converter
N/m, mN/m, dyn/cm and lbf/in.
Surface tension is force per unit length along a liquid surface. Water at room temperature sits near 72 mN/m, which is conveniently the same number in dyn/cm. Coatings, inks and detergents are all specified with it.
Result
1 dyn/cm = 1 mN/m
Dynes per Centimeter and Millinewtons per Meter are the same size.
Results are rounded for display. Double-check values for critical work.
