Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]
Income Taxes	Income Taxes:The effective income tax rate for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2020 was 25.2% and 19.8%, respectively, compared to 15.5% and 19.2% for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2019, respectively. The Company’s effective income tax rate fluctuates based on, among other factors, its level and location of income. The difference between the U.S. federal statutory income tax rate and our effective income tax rate for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2020 was impacted by a variety of factors, primarily stemming from the location in which income was earned. For the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2020, this was mainly attributable to our share of the income of our Jordan Bromine Company Limited (“JBC”) joint venture, a Free Zones company under the laws of the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan. The three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2020 also include discrete tax expenses recorded for foreign uncertain tax positions and foreign return to accrual adjustments. The difference between the U.S. federal statutory income tax rate and our effective income tax rate for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2019 was impacted by a variety of factors, primarily stemming from the location in which income was earned.
