GC analysis is a critical and important technique in the petroleum and petrochemical industries. Using the correct type of column is necessary for reliable and consistent separation of complex samples in these industries. With growing environmental concerns and increasing focus on quality control and regulatory compliance, these industries demand quality columns with a high level of inertness. GS-Tek brings its experience and expertise to recommend the most suitable column for your petroleum and petrochemical compound separation needs.
