To convert a measurement in dynes to a measurement in millinewtons, divide the force by the following conversion ratio: 100 dynes/millinewton.

Since one millinewton is equal to 100 dynes, you can use this simple formula to convert:

millinewtons = dynes ÷ 100

The force in millinewtons is equal to the force in dynes divided by 100.

For example, here's how to convert 5 dynes to millinewtons using the formula above.
millinewtons = (5 dyn ÷ 100) = 0.05 mN

Dynes and millinewtons 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 Millinewton?

One millinewton is equal to 1/1,000 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 millinewton is a multiple of the newton, which is the SI derived unit for force. In the metric system, "milli" is the prefix for thousandths, or 10-3. Millinewtons can be abbreviated as mN; for example, 1 millinewton can be written as 1 mN.
