Convert millistokes to pascal seconds by entering a value below.
How to Convert Millistokes to Pascal Seconds
The millistokes and pascal second are both units of viscosity. By definition, 1 pascal second equals exactly 10000000 millistokes. This means to convert millistokes to pascal seconds, you divide by 10000000.
Formula
Step-by-Step Example
Convert 5 mSt to pascal seconds:
We need to convert millistokes to pascal seconds
Since 1 Pa·s = 10000000 mSt, divide by 10000000
5 ÷ 10000000 = 5e-7
5 mSt = 5e-7 Pa·s

About These Units
Millistokes (mSt)
A millistokes (mSt) equals 0.001 stokes or 0.1 centistokes. Used for low-viscosity fluids: water is 10 mSt at 20°C. Provides finer resolution for thin fluids like solvents, fuels, and aqueous solutions. Rarely used; centistokes preferred.
Pascal Second (Pa·s)
The Pascal second (Pa·s) is the SI unit of dynamic (absolute) viscosity—a fluid's resistance to shear flow. Water at 20°C: 0.001 Pa·s, motor oil: 0.1-0.3 Pa·s, honey: 2-10 Pa·s, molten glass: 10-1000 Pa·s. Formula: τ = η × (dv/dy). One Pa·s = 10 poise = 1000 centipoise.
