Northshore MS9268

Northshore MS9268 is an oil-soluble zinc neodecanoate formulation considered for H₂S and mercaptan treatment in selected crude, residue and asphalt applications. Selection depends on temperature, sulfur loading, mixing and downstream specifications.

The application challenge

Hot, viscous hydrocarbons can be difficult to treat because contact is limited and sulfur compounds may continue to appear during transfer or storage. The treatment must also fit downstream metal and ash requirements.

The product's role

Northshore MS9268 provides a zinc-carboxylate route for the identified reactive sulfur species in an oil-soluble carrier. It is evaluated where metal addition is acceptable. Its PDS identifies refined fuel, crude, residue and asphalt applications, but a finished-fuel use still requires separate compatibility and specification review.

Plan an application evaluation

  • Measure liquid-phase H₂S and mercaptans separately, and record temperature and viscosity.
  • Compare representative treated and untreated samples at the intended contact time.
  • Check vapor-space H₂S where relevant, copper corrosion where specified, and any solids or phase changes.
  • Review metals, ash and downstream requirements before choosing a zinc route.
