PROFILE |
 |
It's a plastic world, thanks in part to Dow Chemical, a world leader in the production of plastics, chemicals, hydrocarbons, and herbicides and pesticides. The #2 chemical company in the US (behind DuPont), Dow Chemical also is a leader in performance plastics (adhesives, sealants, and coatings). Other products include polyethylene resins for packaging, fibers, and films, as well as performance chemicals such as acrylic acid for producing other functional ingredients. Dow, which has bolstered its polyethylene operations with the acquisition of Union Carbide, also produces commodity chemicals (chlorine and caustic soda), herbicide (Clincher), insecticide (Dursban), and crude oil-based raw materials.
