Refine your Petrochemical Insights with LECO

LECO's Petrochemical Solutions

The petroleum refining process relies on various analytical instruments and methods to ensure smooth operations and high product quality. Gas chromatography – time-of-flight mass spectrometry (GC-TOFMS) has become the leading technology for petrochemical analysis due to its fast acquisition, wide mass range, and accurate mass spectra.

At LECO, we offer reliable petrochemical analysis instruments like state-of-the-art GCxGC modulators and high-resolution time-of-flight mass spectrometers. In addition, we provide trusted global customer support with a proven commitment to your success. Keep scrolling to learn more about LECO’s petrochemical analysis solutions.
