Convert attonewton to kilopond
Please provide values below to convert attonewton [aN] to kilopond [kp], or Convert kilopond to attonewton.
1 aN = 1.0197e-19 kp. To convert attonewton to kilopond, multiply the value by 1.0197e-19; to go the other way, divide by it (1 kp = 9.8066e+18 aN). Both units measure force and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.
Quick Reference
- 1 aN = 1.0197e-19 kp
- 1 kp = 9.8066e+18 aN
- 10 aN = 1.0197e-18 kp
- 100 aN = 1.0197e-17 kp
How to Convert Attonewton to Kilopond
1 aN = 1.01971621297793e-19 kp

Attonewton
An attonewton (aN) is a unit of force equal to 10^-18 newtons.
History/Origin
The attonewton is part of the SI prefixes system, introduced to measure extremely small forces, with its usage becoming more relevant in nanotechnology and precision measurements.
Current Use
Attonewtons are used in scientific research involving microscopic forces, such as in atomic and molecular physics, and in nanotechnology applications where very small forces are measured.
Kilopond
The kilopond (kp) is a unit of force that was historically used to measure weight, defined as the force exerted by gravity on a mass of one kilogram under standard gravity.
History/Origin
The kilopond was introduced in the late 19th century as part of the gravitational system of units, primarily used in Europe before the adoption of the SI system. It was based on the standard acceleration due to gravity (9.80665 m/s²).
Current Use
The kilopond is largely obsolete and has been replaced by the newton (N) in the International System of Units. It is rarely used in modern scientific contexts but may still appear in some engineering or historical references.
