To convert a measurement in dynes to a measurement in micronewtons, multiply the force by the following conversion ratio: 10 micronewtons/dyne.

Since one dyne is equal to 10 micronewtons, you can use this simple formula to convert:

micronewtons = dynes × 10

The force in micronewtons is equal to the force in dynes multiplied by 10.

For example, here's how to convert 5 dynes to micronewtons using the formula above.
micronewtons = (5 dyn × 10) = 50 μN

How Many Micronewtons Are in a Dyne?

There are 10 micronewtons in a dyne, which is why we use this value in the formula above.

1 dyn = 10 μN

Dynes and micronewtons are both units used to measure force. Keep reading to learn more about each unit of measure.

What Is a Dyne?

The dyne is the force needed to move one gram of mass at a rate of one centimeter per second squared.

The dyne is a centimeter-gram-second (CGS) unit of force. Dynes can be abbreviated as dyn; for example, 1 dyne can be written as 1 dyn.

Dynes can be expressed using the formula: 1 dyn = 1 gcms2

What Is a Micronewton?

One micronewton is equal to 1/1,000,000 of a newton, which is equal to the force needed to move one kilogram of mass at a rate of one meter per second squared.

The micronewton is a multiple of the newton, which is the SI derived unit for force. In the metric system, "micro" is the prefix for millionths, or 10-6. Micronewtons can be abbreviated as μN; for example, 1 micronewton can be written as 1 μN.
