Discontinued Operations and Disposal Groups [Abstract]
Discontinued Operations	DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS Our consolidated income statements for the nine months ended 30 June 2020 include a pre-tax loss from discontinued operations of $19.0 ($14.3 after-tax). We recorded this loss in the second quarter to increase our existing liability for retained environmental obligations associated with the sale of our former Amines business in September 2006. Refer to the Pace discussion within Note 14, Commitments and Contingencies, for additional information. The loss did not have an impact on our cash flows for the nine months ended 30 June 2020.

The entire disclosure related to a disposal group. Includes, but is not limited to, a discontinued operation, disposal classified as held-for-sale or disposed of by means other than sale or disposal of an individually significant component.
