MPa s

The abbreviation MPa is a Latin one: Megapascals. The suffix s is used in measuring viscosity as described in the following excerpt from
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viscosity

Shear viscosity and dynamic viscosity are much better known than the others. That is why they are often referred to as simply viscosity. Simply put, this quantity is the ratio between the pressure exerted on the surface of a fluid, in the lateral or horizontal direction, to the change in velocity of the fluid as you move down in the fluid (this is what is referred to as a velocity gradient). For example, at room temperature, water has a nominal viscosity of 1.0 × 10-3 Pa∙s and motor oil has a nominal apparent viscosity of 250 × 10-3 Pa∙s.

МПа*с

Думаю, что должно быть так. Единица измерения вязкости - Пуаз. Его размерность Па*с. Здесь, мегаПаскаль соответственно.
