Convert cc to petaliter
Please provide values below to convert cc [cc, cm^3] to petaliter [PL], or Convert petaliter to cc.
1 cc, cm^3 = 1.0000e-18 PL. To convert cc to petaliter, multiply the value by 1.0000e-18; to go the other way, divide by it (1 PL = 1.0000e+18 cc, cm^3). Both units measure volume and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.
Quick Reference
- 1 cc, cm^3 = 1.0000e-18 PL
- 1 PL = 1.0000e+18 cc, cm^3
- 10 cc, cm^3 = 1.0000e-17 PL
- 100 cc, cm^3 = 1.0000e-16 PL
How to Convert Cc to Petaliter
1 cc, cm^3 = 1e-18 PL
Example: convert 15 cc, cm^3 to PL:
15 cc, cm^3 = 15 × 1e-18 PL = 1.5e-17 PL

Cc
The cubic centimeter (cc or cm^3) is a unit of volume representing the volume of a cube with sides of one centimeter.
History/Origin
The cubic centimeter has been used in scientific and medical contexts as a convenient measure of small volumes, especially in fields like medicine and engineering, evolving from the metric system's adoption in the 19th century.
Current Use
Today, the cubic centimeter is commonly used to measure small volumes in medicine (e.g., syringe capacities), automotive engine displacements, and scientific applications, often interchangeably with milliliters (mL).
Petaliter
A petaliter (PL) is a unit of volume measurement equal to one quadrillion liters, used primarily in scientific contexts for expressing extremely large volumes.
History/Origin
The petaliter was introduced as part of the extended metric system to facilitate measurements in fields such as astronomy and large-scale environmental studies, gaining recognition in the early 21st century.
Current Use
Currently, the petaliter is used mainly in scientific research, particularly in astrophysics and climate science, to quantify vast volumes such as cosmic gas clouds or global water reserves.
