GSM (grams per square meter) is a unit of measurement used for the weight of paper or fabric. A micron (µm) is a unit of length equal to one millionth of a meter. To convert GSM to microns, you would need to know the density of the material in question. The relationship between GSM and microns is not a direct conversion and would depend on the specific material being measured.

There are 1000 nanometers in 1 micron. The GSM (grams per square meter) measurement is commonly used to measure the weight or density of paper or fabric. The GSM is not directly related to the size in microns.
None, since there can be no conversion. gsm (grams per square metre is a measure of mass per unit area - a kind of density whereas a micron is a measure of length. The two measure different characteristics and, according to the most basic principles of dimensional analysis, any attempt at comparisons or conversions between the two are fundamentally flawed. A material with high density would be much thinner (fewer microns) than one with low density.
The SI unit for 1 micron is the meter (m). A micron is equal to 1 x 10^-6 meters.
1 mm is 1000 micron. That means 1 micron is 0.0001 mm This is not correct. Yes, 1mm is 1000 micron. Watch those zeros. 1 micron is .001mm.
These are incompatible units. A ml is 1/1000 of a liter - a unit of volume. A micron is 1/1000 000 of a metre, a unit of length.
To convert grams per square meter (gsm) to microns, you need to know the density of the material. Without that information, it's not possible to provide an accurate conversion. The conversion formula is: (gsm / density) * 1000 = microns.
1 micron is equal to 0.001 millimeters, so 0.000001 millimeters is equivalent to 1 micron.
