In plain English
Cabot is the world's largest maker of carbon black — the fine black powder that reinforces almost every tire on the road. It burns leftover refinery oil into engineered carbon particles, sells the bulk to tire and rubber makers, and is pivoting the higher-margin half of the business toward specialty carbons, fumed silica and the conductive additives that go inside lithium-ion batteries.
