The name Resolution Performance Products (RPP) is beginning to resin-ate throughout the chemical industry. Once part of Shell Chemicals, the firm was sold to private investment firm Apollo Management in 2000. RPP is a leading maker of epoxy resins (along with Dow and Huntsman), which are used in coatings, adhesives, and printed circuit boards. The company gets about two-thirds of its sales from epoxy resins. It also produces bisphenol-A (BPA) and epichlorohydrin (ECH), two chemical intermediates used in epoxy resins, and it is a top maker of versatic acids, which are used in pharmaceuticals, personal care products, and coatings. Apollo Management owns about 91% of the company; Shell Oil owns nearly 8%.
