Overview

Rohm and Haas is the one to blame if you can't get that paint out of your hair. The company divides its operations among six units, the largest of which is the paints and coatings materials group, which makes additives and binders used by paint makers. There's also the packaging and building materials group and the primary materials division, which makes acrylates. (Those businesses operate within the Specialty Materials segment.) The electronic materials segment makes photoresists and materials for printed wiring boards. Rohm and Haas exited its salt business in 2009 when it sold Morton Salt to German chemicals company K+S for about $1.7 billion. Dow, the nation's largest chemicals maker, owns the company.
