Jellison began his career with the Donnelly Corporation, a publicly traded international automotive parts supplier, where he served in several senior leadership roles, advancing to Vice President of Finance. He was also a Director and Non-Executive Chairman of Valvoline Inc., a leading worldwide producer and distributer of premium-branded automotive, commercial and industrial lubricants and automotive chemicals, from 2016 until 2018.

Composites are used in many different industries, from automotive to aerospace and from infrastructure to recreation. Automotive — Polymer composites are used in several vehicle parts, including structural components, under hood and interior components, doors, seats, enclosures, bumper reinforcement, and body panels. Like automotive applications, the lighter weight of polymer composites can increase fuel efficiency, resulting in reduced fuel costs for the airlines.

In addition to weight reduction and raw material savings, Hydrocerol CFAs can provide several other benefits that include: • thermal and acoustic insulation • increased stiffness-to-weight ratio • elimination of warpage and sink marks • more efficient processing Automotive Hydrocerol Chemical Foaming Agents are particularly recommended for lightweighting projects. By reducing the weight of automotive parts, they support the reduction of CO2 emissions.
