About these units
The millinewton per meter (mN/m) is a metric unit of surface tension, equal to 0.001 newtons per meter.
The dyne per centimeter (dyn/cm) is a metric unit of surface tension, equal to 0.001 newtons per meter.
Going the other way, 1 dyne per centimeter = 1 millinewton per meter. 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.
