Convert millijoule to nanojoule
Please provide values below to convert millijoule [mJ] to nanojoule [nJ], or Convert nanojoule to millijoule.
1 mJ = 1000000 nJ. To convert millijoule to nanojoule, multiply the value by 1000000; to go the other way, divide by it (1 nJ = 1e-06 mJ). Both units measure energy and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.
Quick Reference
- 1 mJ = 1000000 nJ
- 1 nJ = 1e-06 mJ
- 10 mJ = 10000000 nJ
- 100 mJ = 100000000 nJ
How to Convert Millijoule to Nanojoule
1 mJ = 1000000 nJ
Example: convert 15 mJ to nJ:
15 mJ = 15 × 1000000 nJ = 15000000 nJ

Millijoule
A millijoule (mJ) is a unit of energy equal to one thousandth of a joule, where 1 joule equals 1 newton meter or 1 kg·m²/s².
History/Origin
The millijoule is derived from the SI base unit joule, with the prefix 'milli' indicating a factor of 10⁻³. It has been used in scientific and engineering contexts to measure small amounts of energy, especially in fields like electronics and biomechanics.
Current Use
The millijoule is commonly used today to quantify small energy quantities in electronics, biomedical applications, and energy measurements where precision at a small scale is required.
Nanojoule
A nanojoule (nJ) is a unit of energy equal to one billionth (10^-9) of a joule.
History/Origin
The nanojoule was introduced as part of the SI unit system to measure very small amounts of energy, especially in scientific and technological contexts, with its usage becoming more common with advancements in nanotechnology and micro-scale energy measurements.
Current Use
Nanojoules are used in fields such as electronics, nanotechnology, and physics to quantify small energy quantities, including in the measurement of energy consumption in micro- and nano-scale devices.
