mg/mintomg/s

Convert milligrams per minute (mg/min) to milligrams per second (mg/s).

Factor1 mg/min = 0.01666667 mg/s

Converter

mg/min

Accepts numbers or expressions, e.g. 150 + 14.7

Result
1mg/s

Rendered to 6 significant figures.

Formula

Formula
mg/s = mg/min × 0.01666667

Multiply any value in milligrams per minute by 0.01666667 to obtain the value in milligrams per second.

Worked example

Convert 60 mg/min to mg/s.

  1. 01Start with 60 mg/min.
  2. 02Multiply by the conversion factor: 60 × 0.01666667 = 1 mg/s.
Result60 mg/min = 1 mg/s

FAQ

What is the conversion factor from mg/min to mg/s?
1 mg/min equals 0.01666667 mg/s. To convert, multiply the value in milligrams per minute by 0.01666667.
How do I convert 1 mg/min to mg/s?
1 mg/min = 0.0166667 mg/s. For any value, multiply by 0.01666667.
How do I convert mg/s back to mg/min?
Divide by the same factor — or equivalently, multiply by 60. So 1 mg/s = 60 mg/min.
When would I need to convert milligram per minute to milligram per second?
Mass flow conversions between mg/min and mg/s are common in material balances, process stream summaries, bulk solids handling, custody transfer, and equipment sizing where kg/hr, t/hr, lb/hr, and lb/s may all appear in different datasheets or vendor documents.
Is the conversion exact?
The factor shown is precise to at least 7 significant figures. For most process-engineering work this is far better than instrument accuracy. For metrology or trade applications, refer to the relevant national standard (NIST, BIPM, ISO 80000).
