Unité SI de viscosité dynamique (symb. Pa.s), équivalant à la viscosité dynamique d'un fluide dans lequel le mouvement rectiligne et uniforme dans son plan, d'une surface plane, solide, indéfinie, donne lieu à une force retardatrice de 1 newton par mètre carré de la surface en contact avec le fluide homogène et isotherme en écoulement relatif devenu permanent, lorsque le gradient de la vitesse du fluide, à la surface du solide et par mètre d'écartement normal à ladite surface, est le 1 m/s. 2, record 1, French, - pascal%2Dseconde
