"Over the past two years, Ashland has spent a significant amount of time refining its portfolio of businesses and focusing on technologies - such as thermoset chemistries - that are core to the company's long-term, strategic focus," said Theodore "Ted" Harris, vice president, Ashland Specialty Chemical, general manager, Composite Polymers. "Ashland's purchase of the DERAKANE resin business is in direct alignment with our long-term strategy to develop integrated systems and technology solutions that offer superior value to our customers."
