Perhaps it wasn't such a fantastic finish, but when Alcoa was done with its chemicals division it presented it to the world as Almatis. The company manufactures alumina-based products used to make abrasives and polishers, paper coatings, flame retardants, plastics and polymers, and refractories. Its manufacturing plants are located in Asia, Europe, and the US. Formerly known as Alcoa World Chemicals, Almatis was formed in 2004 when the aluminum giant sold its chemicals unit to private investment firms Rhône Capital and Teachers' Private Capital. Toward the end of 2007 another private equity group Dubai International Capital, a unit of Dubai Holding, agreed to buy Almatis.
