Concentration units are classified as 4 main types
- Volume against volume (v/v) - percentage (%), part per thousand (ppt), part per million (ppm)
- Mass against mass (w/w) - percentage (%), part per thousand (ppt), part per million (ppm)
- Mass against volume (w/v) - kilogram / cubic meter (kg/m³), gram / 100 milliliter (g/100mL); 1 kg/m³ = 0.1 g/100mL
- Molar concentration (Molarity) - Mole / liter (c or mol/L); 1 c = 1 mol/L
These 4 types of concentration units are only interchangeable under certain condition

Kinematic viscosity (m²/s) = Dynamic viscosity (N·s/m²) / Density (kg/m³)
There are many other viscosity units, such as SSU, SUS, SSF.
However, most of them replaced by either dynamic viscosity units or kinematic viscosity units as their conversion are usually under limitations.
