Economic and Other Factors
Performance Materials and Technologies operating results are principally driven by:
Level and timing of capital spending and capacity and utilization rates in refining and petrochemical end markets;
Pricing volatility and industry supply conditions for raw materials such as cumene, fluorspar, perchloroethylene, R240, natural gas, sulfur and
ethylene;
Impact of environmental and energy efficiency regulations;
Extent of change in order rates from global semiconductor customers;
Global demand for non-ozone depleting Hydro fluorocarbons (HFCs);
Condition of the U.S. residential housing and non residential industries and automotive demand;
Global demand for caprolactam and ammonium sulfate; and
Demand for new products including renewable energy and biofuels.

2011 compared with 2010
PMT sales increased by 20 percent in 2011 compared with 2010 due to a 16 percent increase in organic growth, 3 percent growth from acquisitions,
and a 1 percent favorable impact of foreign exchange.
Advanced Materials sales increased by 18 percent (12 percent organically) in 2011 compared to 2010 primarily driven by (i) a 33 percent (18
percent organically) increase in Resins and Chemicals sales primarily due to higher prices driven by strong Asia demand, agricultural demand,
formula pricing arrangements and increased sales resulting from the acquisition of a phenol plant, partially offset by decreased volumes primarily
due to disruptions in phenol supply and weather related events, (ii) a 10 percent increase in our Fluorine Products business due to higher pricing
reflecting robust global demand and tight industry supply conditions primarily in the first half of the year, which moderated in the second half of
the year due to seasonally weaker demand and increased available capacity in the marketplace, (iii) a 12 percent increase in Specialty Products
sales primarily due to higher sales volume in our armor, additives, and healthcare packaging products, and commercial excellence initiatives. We
expect Advanced Materials sales growth to continue to moderate during the first half of 2012 due to slowing global demand and lower prices
resulting from increased availability of refrigerants supply. 38
