CALCULATOR
PPM to PPB Converter
PPM to PPB. Example: Value in ppm: 2.5 gives 2500 ppb. Converts dimensionless proportions on the same stated basis: percent=one part per hundred, ppm=one part per million and ppb=one part per billion. Maximum input must additionally keep the actual fraction at or below one. No conversion between mass/volume/molar bases, mg/L, density or exposure advice is inferred.
How the calculation works
value × 1000
Worked example
With value in ppm 1 ppm, result in ppb is 1,000 ppb.
Assumptions and limits
Converts dimensionless proportions on the same stated basis: percent=one part per hundred, ppm=one part per million and ppb=one part per billion. Maximum input must additionally keep the actual fraction at or below one. No conversion between mass/volume/molar bases, mg/L, density or exposure advice is inferred.
