PROFILE |
 |
Credit good chemistry, but Equistar Chemical -- a partnership of Lyondell (about 40%), Millennium Chemicals, and Occidental Petroleum (about 30% each) -- is one of the world's largest producers of ethylene and its derivatives, olefins, and polymers. Equistar's two segments, petrochemicals (75% of sales) and polymers (25%), make products for use in the manufacture of items ranging from food and beverage packaging to carpet facing, paints, wire insulation, and cleaners. Through a joint venture with DuPont, the company also produces ethylene glycol (antifreeze, polyester fibers, resins, and films). Millennium was trying to sell its share of Equistar, but stopped when it received no offers.
