Tronox Incorporated Company Profile
Tronox came into the chemical world with a lofty status. The company took over former parent Kerr-McGee's status as the third-largest global titanium dioxide (TiO2) producer. (DuPont and Huntsman are among the other top players in the market.) Its products are sold under the TRONOX brand and are used as a whitening pigment in coatings, plastics, and paper. TiO2 sales account for the vast majority of the company's revenues, though it also produces other chemicals, including electrolytic, boron-based, and specialty products. In 2009 the company, facing mounting debt and still laden with liabilities from its spin-off from Kerr-McGee, entered Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection.
