Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation	Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of our wholly owned subsidiaries and are prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) applicable for interim periods and, therefore, do not include all information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In management’s opinion, all adjustments (which include normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. We have reclassified certain items in prior periods to conform to current classifications. The results of operations for our interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that may be achieved for the entire 2023 fiscal year. The financial information as of December 31, 2022 is derived from our audited consolidated financial statements and footnotes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.
Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements	Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements. The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires the use of estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities known to exist as of the date the financial statements are published and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Uncertainties with respect to such estimates and assumptions are inherent in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements; accordingly, it is possible that the actual results could differ from these estimates and assumptions, which could have a material effect on the reported amounts of our consolidated financial position and results of operations.
Supply Chain Financing	Supply Chain Financing. We are party to several supply chain financing arrangements, in which we may sell certain of our customers’ trade accounts receivable to such customers’ financial institutions without recourse. During the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2023, we sold trade accounts receivable totaling $323.4 million and $626.6 million, respectively, related to these supply chain financing arrangements, of which our customers’ financial institutions applied discount fees totaling $8.0 million and $15.2 million, respectively. During the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2022, we sold trade accounts receivable totaling $482.0 million and $889.4 million, respectively, related to these supply chain financing arrangements, of which our customers’ financial institutions applied discount fees totaling $6.3 million and $9.2 million, respectively. To the extent discount fees related to the sale of trade accounts receivable under supply chain financing arrangements are not reimbursed by our customers, they are included in Other (expense) income, net. As of June 30, 2023, we had been and/or expected to be fully reimbursed by our customers for the majority of these discount fees.
Favorable Commodity Contract Intangible Asset Impairment	Favorable Commodity Contract Intangible Asset Impairment. During the quarter ended June 30, 2022, we impaired the remaining book value of our favorable commodity contract intangible asset as the supplier associated with the intangible asset ceased all deliveries of magnesium to us and provided no indication of when or if deliveries would resume over the remaining six months of the contract. The impairment charge of $3.1 million was included within Other operating charges, net, in our Statements of Consolidated Income (Loss).
