PROFILE |
 |
Ethyl Corporation's additives make vehicles run smoother. Ethyl's petroleum additives (over 95% of sales) are used in gasoline, heating oil, and other fuels to improve refining and performance, and as a lubricant in motor oil, fluids, and grease. Its other product, antiknock additive tetraethyl lead (TEL), is rapidly losing ground in markets where unleaded gas has taken over as a result of the automakers' compliance with the Clean Air Act. Equilon, ExxonMobil, and Penzoil-Quaker State are Ethyl's biggest customers. The company hopes to boost its TEL sales via an agreement with Octel (UK) to market TEL outside Europe and the US. CEO Bruce Gottwald and his family own about 25% of Ethyl.
