Reaction Principle:
2 R-SH + Hg Cl2 ~> Hg(CH3S)2 + 2 HCl HCl + pH-indicator ~> reddish reaction product
Cross Sensitivity:
Propyl mercaptan and n-butyl-mercaptan are indicated, but with different sensitivities. 4 ppm ethylene, 30 ppm CO, 10 ppm tetrahydrothiophene and 100 ppm hydrogen sulfide do not affect the indication. Hydrogen sulfide changes the pre-layer to black..
