Poundal/Inch

The poundal per inch (pdl/in) is an imperial unit of surface tension based on the poundal (a unit of force in the foot-pound-second system). One poundal per inch equals approximately 5.443×10⁻³ N/m. It is rarely used in modern engineering. 


Newton/Meter

The newton per metre (N/m) is the SI unit of surface tension, measuring the force acting along the surface of a liquid per unit length. Water has a surface tension of approximately 0.0728 N/m at 20°C. Surface tension causes phenomena such as capillary action and the formation of soap bubbles.
