Background and Basis of Presentation [Abstract] | |
Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements Disclosure [Text Block] | Background and Basis of Presentation |
Based in Columbus, Ohio, Hexion Inc. (which may be referred to as “Hexion” or the “Company”) serves global industrial markets through a broad range of thermoset technologies, specialty products and technical support for customers in a diverse range of applications and industries. The Company’s business is organized based on the products offered and the markets served. At March 31, 2015, the Company had two reportable segments: Epoxy, Phenolic and Coating Resins and Forest Products Resins. | |
The Company’s direct parent is Hexion LLC, a holding company and wholly owned subsidiary of Hexion Holdings LLC (“Hexion Holdings”), the ultimate parent entity of Hexion. Hexion Holdings is controlled by investment funds managed by affiliates of Apollo Management Holdings, L.P. (together with Apollo Global Management, LLC and its subsidiaries, “Apollo”). Apollo may also be referred to as the Company’s owner. | |
The unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of the Company, its majority-owned subsidiaries in which minority shareholders hold no substantive participating rights and variable interest entities in which the Company is the primary beneficiary. Intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated in consolidation. In the opinion of management, all adjustments consisting of normal, recurring adjustments considered necessary for a fair statement have been included. Results for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for the entire year. | |
Year-end condensed consolidated balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). | |
Pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, certain information and disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted. These unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the audited Consolidated Financial Statements and the accompanying notes included in the Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K. |

Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |||||||||||||
Significant Accounting Policies [Text Block] | Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | ||||||||||||
Use of Estimates—The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and also requires the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. In addition, it requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates. | |||||||||||||
Change in Accounting Policy—The Company has elected to change its accounting policies related to the recognition of gains and losses for pension and other non-pension postretirement benefit plans (“OPEB”) to a more preferable policy under U.S. GAAP. Specifically, such gains and losses historically recognized as a component of “Other comprehensive income (loss)”, and amortized into net income (loss) in future periods, will be recognized in earnings in the period in which they occur. In addition, the Company has changed its policy for recognizing expected returns on plan assets from a market-related value method (based on a five-year smoothing of asset returns), to a fair value method. | |||||||||||||
Under the new policies, upon the Company’s annual remeasurement of its pension and OPEB plans in the fourth quarter, or on an interim basis as triggering events warrant remeasurement, the Company will immediately recognize gains and losses as a mark-to-market (“MTM”) gain or loss through earnings. As such, under the new policies, the Company’s net periodic pension and OPEB expense recognized on a quarterly basis will consist of i) service cost, interest cost, expected return on plan assets, amortization of prior service cost/credits and ii) MTM adjustments recognized annually in the fourth quarter upon remeasurement of pension and OPEB liabilities or when triggering events warrant remeasurement. The Company believes that these changes are preferable as they provide greater transparency of the Company’s economic obligations in accounting results and better alignment with fair value accounting principles by recognizing the effects of economic and interest rate changes on pension and OPEB assets and liabilities in the year in which the gains and losses are incurred. | |||||||||||||
The impact of these pension and OPEB accounting policy changes was applied through retrospective application of the new policies to all periods presented. Accordingly, all relevant information as of, and for the three months ended, March 31, 2015 and all prior periods has been adjusted to reflect the application of the changes. As of January 1, 2015, the cumulative effect of these changes was a $229 increase to “Accumulated deficit”, a $232 decrease to “Accumulated other comprehensive loss”, a $2 increase to “Finished and in-process goods” and a $1 increase to “Noncontrolling interest” in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards | |||||||||||||
In May, 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Board Update No. 2014-09: Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) (“ASU 2014-09”). ASU 2014-09 supersedes the existing revenue recognition guidance and most industry-specific guidance applicable to revenue recognition. According to the new guidance, an entity will apply a principles-based five step model to recognize revenue upon the transfer of promised goods or services to customers and in an amount that reflects the consideration for which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The tentative revised effective date for ASU 2014-09 is for annual and interim periods beginning on or after December 15, 2017, and early adoption will be permitted. Entities will have the option of using either a full retrospective approach or a modified approach to adopt the guidance in ASU 2014-09. The Company is currently assessing the potential impact of ASU 2014-09 on its financial statements. | |||||||||||||
In January 2015, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Board Update No. 2015-01: Income Statement—Extraordinary and Unusual Items (Subtopic 225-20): Simplifying Income Statement Presentation by Eliminating the Concept of Extraordinary Items (“ASU 2015-01”). ASU 2015-01 eliminates from U.S. GAAP the concept of extraordinary items and removes the requirement to present extraordinary items separately on the income statement, net of tax. The guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015, including interim periods within that reporting period. The requirements of ASU 2015-01 are not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements. | |||||||||||||
In February 2015, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Board Update No. 2015-02: Consolidation (Topic 810): Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis (“ASU 2015-02”). ASU 2015-02 amends the existing consolidation guidance related to (i) limited partnerships and similar legal entities, (ii) the evaluation of fees paid to a decision maker or a service provider as variable interest, (iii) the effect of fee arrangements on the primary beneficiary determination, and (iv) the effect of related parties on the primary beneficiary determination. ASU 2015-02 simplifies the existing guidance by reducing the number of consolidation models from four to two, reducing the extent to which related party arrangements cause an entity to be considered a primary beneficiary, and placing more emphasis on the risk of loss when determining a controlling financial interest. The guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015, including interim periods within that reporting period. The requirements of ASU 2015-02 are not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements. | |||||||||||||
In April 2015, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Board Update No. 2015-03: Interest—Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs (“ASU 2015-03”). ASU 2015-03 requires that debt issuance costs be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying value of the associated debt liability, and also requires that the amortization of such costs be reported as interest expense. The guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015, including interim periods within that reporting period, and early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently assessing the potential impact of ASU 2015-03 on its financial statements. |

In 2014, in response to an uncertain economic outlook, the Company initiated significant restructuring and cost reduction programs with the intent to optimize its cost structure and bring manufacturing capacity in line with demand. The Company estimates that these activities will occur over the next 18 to 24 months.

Administrative Service, Management and Consulting Arrangement | |
The Company is subject to a Management Consulting Agreement with Apollo (the “Management Consulting Agreement”) that renews on an annual basis, unless notice to the contrary is given by either party. Under the Management Consulting Agreement, the Company receives certain structuring and advisory services from Apollo and its affiliates. The Management Consulting Agreement provides indemnification to Apollo, its affiliates and their directors, officers and representatives for potential losses arising from these services. Apollo is entitled to an annual fee equal to the greater of $3 or 2% of the Company’s Adjusted EBITDA. Apollo elected to waive charges of any portion of the annual management fee due in excess of $3 for the calendar year 2015. | |
During both the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, the Company recognized expense under the Management Consulting Agreement of $1. This amount is included in “Other operating expense, net” in the Company’s unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. | |
Transactions with MPM | |
Shared Services Agreement | |
On October 1, 2010, the Company entered into a shared services agreement with Momentive Performance Materials Inc. (“MPM”) (which, from October 1, 2010 through October 24, 2014, was a subsidiary of Hexion Holdings) (the “Shared Services Agreement”). Under this agreement, the Company provides to MPM, and MPM provides to the Company, certain services, including, but not limited to, executive and senior management, administrative support, human resources, information technology support, accounting, finance, technology development, legal and procurement services. The Shared Services Agreement establishes certain criteria upon which the costs of such services are allocated between the Company and MPM. The Shared Services Agreement is subject to termination by either the Company or MPM, without cause, on not less than 30 days’ written notice, and expires in October 2015 (subject to one-year renewals every year thereafter; absent contrary notice from either party). | |
On April 13, 2014, Momentive Performance Materials Holdings Inc. (MPM’s direct parent company at such date), MPM and certain of its U.S. subsidiaries filed voluntary petitions for reorganization under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. On October 24, 2014, in conjunction with MPM’s emergence from Chapter 11 bankruptcy and the consummation of MPM’s plan of reorganization, the Shared Services Agreement was amended to, among other things, (i) exclude the services of certain executive officers, (ii) provide for a transition assistance period at the election of the recipient following termination of the Shared Services Agreement of up to 12 months, subject to one successive renewal period of an additional 60 days and (iii) provide for the use of an independent third-party firm to assist the Shared Services Steering Committee with its annual review of billings and allocations. Additionally, upon emergence from Chapter 11 bankruptcy, MPM paid all previously unpaid amounts to the Company related to the Shared Services Agreement. | |
Pursuant to the Shared Services Agreement, during the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, the Company incurred approximately $31 and $33, respectively, of net costs for shared services and MPM incurred approximately $25 of net costs for shared services. Included in the net costs incurred during the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, were net billings from the Company to MPM of $17 and $9, respectively, to bring the percentage of total net incurred costs for shared services under the Shared Services Agreement to the applicable allocation percentage. The allocation percentages are reviewed by the Steering Committee pursuant to the terms of the Shared Services Agreement. The Company had accounts receivable from MPM of $6 and $9 as of March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively, and no accounts payable to MPM. | |
Sales and Purchases of Products and Services with MPM | |
The Company also sells products to, and purchases products from, MPM pursuant to a Master Buy/Sell Agreement dated as of September 6, 2012 (the “Master Buy/Sell Agreement”). The standard terms and conditions of the seller in the applicable jurisdiction apply to transactions under the Master Buy/Sell Agreement. The Master Buy/Sell Agreement has an initial term of three years and may be terminated for convenience by either party thereunder upon 30 days' prior notice. Additionally, a subsidiary of MPM has acted as a non-exclusive distributor in India for certain of the Company’s subsidiaries pursuant to Distribution Agreements dated as of September 6, 2012 (the “Distribution Agreements”). The Distribution Agreements had initial terms of three years and were terminated by mutual agreement on March 9, 2015. Pursuant to these agreements and other purchase orders, during both the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, the Company sold less than $1 of products to MPM and purchased $2 of products from MPM. As of March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the Company had less than $1 of accounts receivable from MPM and less than $1 and $1, respectively, of accounts payable to MPM related to these agreements. | |
Other Transactions with MPM | |
In March 2014, the Company entered into a ground lease with a Brazilian subsidiary of MPM to lease a portion of MPM’s manufacturing site in Itatiba, Brazil for purposes of constructing and operating an epoxy production facility. In conjunction with the ground lease, the Company entered into a site services agreement whereby MPM’s subsidiary provides to the Company various services such as environmental, health and safety, security, maintenance and accounting, among others, to support the operation of this new facility. The Company paid less than $1 to MPM under this agreement during both the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014. | |
In April 2014, the Company purchased 100% of the interests in MPM’s Canadian subsidiary for a purchase price of approximately $12. As a part of the transaction the Company also entered into a non-exclusive distribution agreement with a subsidiary of MPM, whereby the Company acts as a distributor of certain MPM products in Canada. The agreement has a term of 10 years, and is cancelable by either party with 180 days’ notice. The Company is compensated for acting as distributor at a rate of 2% of the net selling price of the related products sold. During the three months ended March 31, 2015, the Company purchased approximately $7 of products from MPM under this distribution agreement, and earned less than $1 from MPM as compensation for acting as distributor of the products. As of March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the Company had $3 and $2, respectively, of accounts payable to MPM related to the distribution agreement. | |

The Company sells finished goods to, and purchases raw materials from, a foundry joint venture between the Company and HA-USA Inc. (“HAI”). The Company also provides toll-manufacturing and other services to HAI. The Company’s investment in HAI is recorded under the equity method of accounting, and the related sales and purchases are not eliminated from the Company’s unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. However, any profit on these transactions is eliminated in the Company’s unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements to the extent of the Company’s 50% interest in HAI. Sales and services provided to HAI were $21 and $27 for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Accounts receivable from HAI were $8 at both March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014. Purchases from HAI were $5 and $7 for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014. The Company had accounts payable to HAI of $2 at both March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014. Additionally, HAI declared dividends to the Company of $4 and $3 during the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. No amounts remained outstanding related to these previously declared dividends at March 31, 2015. | |
The Company’s purchase contracts with HAI represent a significant portion of HAI’s total revenue, and this factor results in the Company absorbing the majority of the risk from potential losses or the majority of the gains from potential returns. However, the Company does not have the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact HAI, and therefore, does not consolidate HAI. | |
In 2013, the Company and HAI resolved a dispute regarding raw material pricing. As part of the resolution, the Company will provide discounts to HAI on future purchases of dry and liquid resins totaling $16 over a period of three years. During both the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, the Company issued $1 of discounts to HAI under this agreement. As of March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, $5 and $7, respectively, remained outstanding under this agreement. As of both March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, $5 of the outstanding amount was classified in “Other current liabilities” in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, with the remaining amount included in “Other long-term liabilities.” | |
The Company had a loan receivable from its unconsolidated forest products joint venture in Russia of $6 as of both March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014. | |
As of both March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the Company had approximately $11 of cash on deposit as collateral for a loan that was extended by a third party to one of the Company’s unconsolidated joint ventures, which is classified as restricted cash. |

Fair Value and Financial Instruments [Abstract] | |||||||||||||||||||||
Fair Value Disclosures [Text Block] | Fair Value | ||||||||||||||||||||
Fair value is the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Fair value measurement provisions establish a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. This guidance describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value: | |||||||||||||||||||||
• | Level 1: Inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets. | ||||||||||||||||||||
• | Level 2: Pricing inputs are other than quoted prices in active markets included in Level 1, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reported date. | ||||||||||||||||||||
• | Level 3: Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and are developed based on the best information available in the circumstances. For example, inputs derived through extrapolation or interpolation that cannot be corroborated by observable market data. | ||||||||||||||||||||
Recurring Fair Value Measurements | |||||||||||||||||||||
As of March 31, 2015, the Company had derivative liabilities related to electricity and natural gas contracts of less than $1, which were measured using Level 2 inputs, and consist of derivative instruments transacted primarily in over-the-counter markets. There were no transfers between Level 1, Level 2 or Level 3 measurements during the three months ended March 31, 2015 or 2014. | |||||||||||||||||||||
The Company calculates the fair value of its Level 2 derivative liabilities using standard pricing models with market-based inputs, adjusted for nonperformance risk. When its financial instruments are in a liability position, the Company evaluates its credit risk as a component of fair value. At both March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, no adjustment was made by the Company to reduce its derivative liabilities for nonperformance risk. | |||||||||||||||||||||
When its financial instruments are in an asset position, the Company is exposed to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by other parties to these contracts and evaluates their credit risk as a component of fair value. | |||||||||||||||||||||
Non-derivative Financial Instruments | |||||||||||||||||||||
The following table summarizes the carrying amount and fair value of the Company’s non-derivative financial instruments: | |||||||||||||||||||||
Carrying Amount | Fair Value | ||||||||||||||||||||
Level 1 | Level 2 | Level 3 | Total | ||||||||||||||||||

31-Dec-14 | |||||||||||||||||||||
Debt | $ | 3,834 | $ | — | $ | 3,386 | $ | 9 | $ | 3,395 | |||||||||||
Fair values of debt classified as Level 2 are determined based on other similar financial instruments, or based upon interest rates that are currently available to the Company for the issuance of debt with similar terms and maturities. Level 3 amounts represent capital leases whose fair value is determined through the use of present value and specific contract terms. The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, short term investments, accounts receivable, accounts payable and other accrued liabilities are considered reasonable estimates of their fair values due to the short-term maturity of these financial instruments. |

On April 15, 2015, the Company issued $315 aggregate principal amount of 10.00% First-Priority Senior Secured Notes due 2020 (the “New First Lien Notes”). The Company used the net proceeds to redeem or repay all $40 of its outstanding 8.375% Sinking Fund Debentures due 2016, and to repay all amounts outstanding under its senior secured asset-based revolving loan facility (the “ABL Facility”) at the closing of the offering. | |||||||||||||||||
The New First Lien Notes are secured by first-priority liens on collateral that generally includes most of the Company and its domestic subsidiaries’ assets other than inventory and accounts receivable and related assets and by second-priority liens on the domestic portion of the collateral for the ABL Facility, which generally includes most of the inventory and accounts receivable and related assets of the Company, its domestic subsidiaries and certain of its foreign subsidiaries, in each case subject to certain exceptions and permitted liens. | |||||||||||||||||
Additionally, in April 2015, the Company received commitments from the requisite lenders to amend its ABL Facility to (i) add one of its German subsidiaries as a borrower and certain German subsidiaries as guarantors and (ii) expand its borrowing base to include certain machinery, equipment and real property in certain foreign jurisdictions, subject to customary reserves. The amendment is subject to customary closing conditions, including certain appraisals and other documentation. |

Environmental Matters | ||||||||||||||||||||
The Company’s operations involve the use, handling, processing, storage, transportation and disposal of hazardous materials. The Company is subject to extensive environmental regulation at the federal, state and local levels as well as foreign laws and regulations, and is therefore exposed to the risk of claims for environmental remediation or restoration. In addition, violations of environmental laws or permits may result in restrictions being imposed on operating activities, substantial fines, penalties, damages or other costs, any of which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. | ||||||||||||||||||||
Environmental Institution of Paraná IAP—On August 10, 2005, the Environmental Institute of Paraná (IAP), an environmental agency in the State of Paraná, provided Hexion Quimica Industria, the Company’s Brazilian subsidiary, with notice of an environmental assessment in the amount of 12 Brazilian reais. The assessment related to alleged environmental damages to the Paranagua Bay caused in November 2004 from an explosion on a shipping vessel carrying methanol purchased by the Company. The investigations performed by the public authorities have not identified any actions of the Company that contributed to or caused the accident. The Company responded to the assessment by filing a request to have it cancelled and by obtaining an injunction precluding execution of the assessment pending adjudication of the issue. In November 2010, the Court denied the Company’s request to cancel the assessment and lifted the injunction that had been issued. The Company responded to the ruling by filing an appeal in the State of Paraná Court of Appeals. In March 2012, the Company was informed that the Court of Appeals had denied the Company’s appeal, and on June 4, 2012 the Company filed appeals to the Superior Court of Justice and the Supreme Court of Brazil. The Company continues to believe it has strong defenses against the validity of the assessment, and does not believe that a loss is probable. At March 31, 2015, the amount of the assessment, including tax, penalties, monetary correction and interest, is 39 Brazilian reais, or approximately $12. | ||||||||||||||||||||
The following table summarizes all probable environmental remediation, indemnification and restoration liabilities, including related legal expenses, at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014: | ||||||||||||||||||||

These amounts include estimates for unasserted claims that the Company believes are probable of loss and reasonably estimable. The estimate of the range of reasonably possible costs is less certain than the estimates upon which the liabilities are based. To establish the upper end of a range, assumptions less favorable to the Company among the range of reasonably possible outcomes were used. As with any estimate, if facts or circumstances change, the final outcome could differ materially from these estimates. At March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, $9 and $12, respectively, have been included in “Other current liabilities” in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets with the remaining amount included in “Other long-term liabilities.” | ||||||||||||||||||||
Following is a discussion of the Company’s environmental liabilities and the related assumptions at March 31, 2015: | ||||||||||||||||||||
Geismar, LA Site—The Company formerly owned a basic chemicals and polyvinyl chloride business that was taken public as Borden Chemicals and Plastics Operating Limited Partnership (“BCPOLP”) in 1987. The Company retained a 1% interest, the general partner interest and the liability for certain environmental matters after BCPOLP’s formation. Under a Settlement Agreement approved by the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware among the Company, BCPOLP, the United States Environmental Protection Agency and the Louisiana Department of Environmental Quality, the Company agreed to perform certain of BCPOLP’s obligations for soil and groundwater contamination at BCPOLP’s Geismar, Louisiana site. The Company bears the sole responsibility for these obligations because there are no other potentially responsible parties (“PRP”) or third parties from whom the Company could seek reimbursement. | ||||||||||||||||||||
A groundwater pump and treat system to remove contaminants is operational, and natural attenuation studies are proceeding. If closure procedures and remediation systems prove to be inadequate, or if additional contamination is discovered, costs that would approach the higher end of the range of possible outcomes could result. | ||||||||||||||||||||
Due to the long-term nature of the project, the reliability of timing and the ability to estimate remediation payments, a portion of this liability was recorded at its net present value, assuming a 3% discount rate and a time period of 24 years. The range of possible outcomes is discounted in a similar manner. The undiscounted liability, which is expected to be paid over the next 24 years, is approximately $20. Over the next five years, the Company expects to make ratable payments totaling $6. | ||||||||||||||||||||
Superfund Sites and Offsite Landfills—The Company is currently involved in environmental remediation activities at a number of sites for which it has been notified that it is, or may be, a PRP under the United States Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act or similar state “superfund” laws. The Company anticipates approximately 50% of the estimated liability for these sites will be paid within the next five years, with the remainder over the next twenty-five years. The Company generally does not bear a significant level of responsibility for these sites, and as a result, has little control over the costs and timing of cash flows. | ||||||||||||||||||||
The Company’s ultimate liability will depend on many factors including its share of waste volume, the financial viability of other PRPs, the remediation methods and technology used, the amount of time necessary to accomplish remediation and the availability of insurance coverage. The range of possible outcomes takes into account the maturity of each project, resulting in a more narrow range as the project progresses. To estimate both its current reserves for environmental remediation at these sites and the possible range of additional costs, the Company has not assumed that it will bear the entire cost of remediation of every site to the exclusion of other known PRPs who may be jointly and severally liable. The Company has limited information to assess the viability of other PRPs and their probable contribution on a per site basis. The Company’s insurance provides very limited, if any, coverage for these environmental matters. | ||||||||||||||||||||
Sites Under Current Ownership—The Company is conducting environmental remediation at a number of locations that it currently owns, of which ten sites are no longer in operation. As the Company is performing a portion of the remediation on a voluntary basis, it has some control over the costs to be incurred and the timing of cash flows. The Company expects to pay approximately $5 of these liabilities within the next five years, with the remainder over the next ten years. The factors influencing the ultimate outcome include the methods of remediation elected, the conclusions and assessment of site studies remaining to be completed, and the time period required to complete the work. No other parties are responsible for remediation at these sites. | ||||||||||||||||||||
Formerly-Owned Sites—The Company is conducting, or has been identified as a PRP in connection with, environmental remediation at a number of locations that it formerly owned and/or operated. Remediation costs at these former sites, such as those associated with our former phosphate mining and processing operations, could be material. The Company has accrued those costs for formerly-owned sites which are currently probable and reasonably estimable. One such site is the Coronet Industries, Inc. Superfund Alternative Site in Plant City, Florida. The current owner of the site has alleged that it has incurred environmental costs at the site for which it believes it has a contribution claim against the Company, and that additional future costs are likely to be incurred. In July 2014, the Company reached a non-binding agreement with the current owner of the site, subject to negotiation of an acceptable settlement agreement and required approvals. Pursuant to the agreement, the Company would pay $10 in fulfillment of the contribution claim against the Company for past remediation costs. Additionally, the Company would accept a 40% allocable share of specified future remediation costs at this site. The Company estimates its allocable share of future remediation costs to be approximately $12. The final costs to the Company will depend on the method of remediation chosen, the amount of time necessary to accomplish remediation and the ongoing financial viability of the other PRPs. Currently, the Company has insufficient information to estimate the range of reasonably possible costs related to this site. | ||||||||||||||||||||
Monitoring Only Sites—The Company is responsible for a number of sites that require monitoring where no additional remediation is expected. The Company has established reserves for costs related to these sites. Payment of these liabilities is anticipated to occur over the next ten or more years. The ultimate cost to the Company will be influenced by fluctuations in projected monitoring periods or by findings that are different than anticipated. | ||||||||||||||||||||
Indemnifications—In connection with the acquisition of certain of the Company’s operating businesses, the Company has been indemnified by the sellers against certain liabilities of the acquired businesses, including liabilities relating to both known and unknown environmental contamination arising prior to the date of the purchase. The indemnifications may be subject to certain exceptions and limitations, deductibles and indemnity caps. While it is reasonably possible that some costs could be incurred, except for those sites identified above, the Company has inadequate information to allow it to estimate a potential range of liability, if any. | ||||||||||||||||||||
Non-Environmental Legal Matters | ||||||||||||||||||||
The Company is involved in various legal proceedings in the ordinary course of business and had reserves of $7 and $12 at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively, for all non-environmental legal defense costs incurred and settlement costs that it believes are probable and estimable. At March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, $6 and $9, respectively, has been included in “Other current liabilities” in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, with the remaining amount included in “Other long-term liabilities.” | ||||||||||||||||||||
The Company is also involved in various product liability, commercial and employment litigation, personal injury, property damage and other legal proceedings, including actions that allege harm caused by products the Company has allegedly made or used, containing silica, vinyl chloride monomer and asbestos. The Company believes it has adequate reserves and that it is not reasonably possible that a loss exceeding amounts already reserved would be material. Furthermore, the Company has insurance to cover claims of these types. |

Segment Reporting Disclosure [Text Block] | Segment Information | |||||||
The Company’s business segments are based on the products that the Company offers and the markets that it serves. At March 31, 2015, the Company had two reportable segments: Epoxy, Phenolic and Coating Resins and Forest Products Resins. A summary of the major products of the Company’s reportable segments follows: | ||||||||
• | Epoxy, Phenolic and Coating Resins: epoxy specialty resins, phenolic encapsulated substrates, versatic acids and derivatives, basic epoxy resins and intermediates, phenolic specialty resins and molding compounds, polyester resins, acrylic resins and vinylic resins | |||||||
• | Forest Products Resins: forest products resins and formaldehyde applications | |||||||
Reportable Segments | ||||||||
Following are net sales and Segment EBITDA (earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization) by reportable segment. Segment EBITDA is defined as EBITDA adjusted for certain non-cash items and other income and expenses. Segment EBITDA is the primary performance measure used by the Company’s senior management, the chief operating decision-maker and the board of directors to evaluate operating results and allocate capital resources among segments. Segment EBITDA is also the profitability measure used to set management and executive incentive compensation goals. Corporate and Other is primarily corporate general and administrative expenses that are not allocated to the segments, such as shared service and administrative functions, foreign exchange gains and losses and legacy company costs not allocated to continuing segments. | ||||||||
Beginning in the first quarter of 2015, the Company has modified the components of Corporate and Other to include certain shared service and administrative functional costs that were previously allocated to the reportable segments. Accordingly, for comparative purposes, the Company has recasted its Segment EBITDA results to include these costs within Corporate and Other for all prior periods presented. | ||||||||

Income Tax Disclosure [Text Block] | Income Taxes |
The effective tax rate was (236)% and (38)% for the first quarter of 2015 and 2014, respectively. The change in the effective tax rate was primarily attributable to the amount and distribution of income and losses among the various jurisdictions in which the Company operates. The effective tax rates were also impacted by operating losses generated in jurisdictions where no tax benefit was recognized due to the maintenance of a full valuation allowance. | |
For the first quarter of 2015 and 2014, income tax expense relates primarily to income from certain foreign operations. Losses in the United States and certain foreign jurisdictions had no impact on income tax expense as no tax benefit was recognized due to the maintenance of a full valuation allowance. |

Guarantees [Text Block] | Guarantor/Non-Guarantor Subsidiary Financial Information | |||||||||||||||||||
The Company’s 6.625% First-Priority Senior Secured Notes due 2020, New First Lien Notes, 8.875% Senior Secured Notes due 2018 and 9.00% Second-Priority Senior Secured Notes due 2020 are guaranteed by certain of its U.S. subsidiaries. | ||||||||||||||||||||
The following information contains the condensed consolidating financial information for Hexion Inc. (the parent), the combined subsidiary guarantors (Hexion Investments Inc.; Borden Chemical Foundry, LLC; Lawter International, Inc.; HSC Capital Corporation; Hexion International Inc.; Hexion CI Holding Company (China) LLC; NL COOP Holdings LLC and Oilfield Technology Group, Inc.) and the combined non-guarantor subsidiaries, which includes all of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries. | ||||||||||||||||||||
All of the subsidiary guarantors are 100% owned by Hexion Inc. All guarantees are full and unconditional, and are joint and several. There are no significant restrictions on the ability of the Company to obtain funds from its domestic subsidiaries by dividend or loan. While the Company’s Australian, New Zealand and Brazilian subsidiaries are restricted in the payment of dividends and intercompany loans due to the terms of their credit facilities, there are no material restrictions on the Company’s ability to obtain cash from the remaining non-guarantor subsidiaries. | ||||||||||||||||||||
These financial statements are prepared on the same basis as the consolidated financial statements of the Company except that investments in subsidiaries are accounted for using the equity method for purposes of the consolidating presentation. The principal elimination entries relate to investments in subsidiaries and intercompany balances and transactions. | ||||||||||||||||||||
This information includes allocations of corporate overhead to the combined non-guarantor subsidiaries based on net sales. Income tax expense has been provided on the combined non-guarantor subsidiaries based on actual effective tax rates. | ||||||||||||||||||||
Corporate Changes | ||||||||||||||||||||
In December 2014, Hexion U.S. Finance Corp. (“Hexion U.S.”), the issuer under the indentures governing the Company’s 6.625% First-Priority Senior Secured Notes due 2020 (the “First Lien Notes”), the Company’s 8.875% Senior Secured Notes due 2018 (the “Senior Secured Notes”) and the Company’s 9.00% Second-Priority Senior Secured Notes due 2020 (the “Second Lien Notes”), merged with and into Hexion Inc., its parent company, with Hexion Inc. remaining as the surviving entity. Pursuant to supplemental indentures, Hexion Inc. assumed all the obligations of Hexion U.S. under the indentures and the First Lien Notes, the Senior Secured Notes and the Second Lien Notes. | ||||||||||||||||||||
The merger was accounted for as a transaction under common control as defined in the accounting guidance for business combinations. As a result, the Company has recasted its prior period guarantor/non-guarantor subsidiary financial information on a combined basis to reflect the merger of Hexion U.S. with and into Hexion Inc., resulting in the balances and activity previously reported in the Issuer column to be combined with the balances and activity reported in the Hexion Inc. column. | ||||||||||||||||||||
Financial Statement Revisions | ||||||||||||||||||||
The Company revised its Condensed Consolidating Statement of Operations for the three months ended March 31, 2014 to correct the amount of other comprehensive income reported in the Combined Guarantor Subsidiaries, Combined Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries and Eliminations columns. The revisions resulted in a decrease of $125, $115 and $240, respectively, to “Comprehensive loss”. | ||||||||||||||||||||
These corrections, which the Company determined are not material to the previously issued financial statements, had no impact on the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements or footnotes, except for the columns of the Condensed Consolidating Statement of Operations for the three months ended March 31, 2014. | ||||||||||||||||||||

Significant Accounting Policies Level 2 (Policies) | 3 Months Ended | ||||||||||||
Mar. 31, 2015 | |||||||||||||
Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |||||||||||||
Use of Estimates, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Use of Estimates—The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and also requires the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. In addition, it requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates. | ||||||||||||
Accounting Changes [Text Block] | Change in Accounting Policy—The Company has elected to change its accounting policies related to the recognition of gains and losses for pension and other non-pension postretirement benefit plans (“OPEB”) to a more preferable policy under U.S. GAAP. Specifically, such gains and losses historically recognized as a component of “Other comprehensive income (loss)”, and amortized into net income (loss) in future periods, will be recognized in earnings in the period in which they occur. In addition, the Company has changed its policy for recognizing expected returns on plan assets from a market-related value method (based on a five-year smoothing of asset returns), to a fair value method. | ||||||||||||
Under the new policies, upon the Company’s annual remeasurement of its pension and OPEB plans in the fourth quarter, or on an interim basis as triggering events warrant remeasurement, the Company will immediately recognize gains and losses as a mark-to-market (“MTM”) gain or loss through earnings. As such, under the new policies, the Company’s net periodic pension and OPEB expense recognized on a quarterly basis will consist of i) service cost, interest cost, expected return on plan assets, amortization of prior service cost/credits and ii) MTM adjustments recognized annually in the fourth quarter upon remeasurement of pension and OPEB liabilities or when triggering events warrant remeasurement. The Company believes that these changes are preferable as they provide greater transparency of the Company’s economic obligations in accounting results and better alignment with fair value accounting principles by recognizing the effects of economic and interest rate changes on pension and OPEB assets and liabilities in the year in which the gains and losses are incurred. | |||||||||||||
The impact of these pension and OPEB accounting policy changes was applied through retrospective application of the new policies to all periods presented. Accordingly, all relevant information as of, and for the three months ended, March 31, 2015 and all prior periods has been adjusted to reflect the application of the changes. As of January 1, 2015, the cumulative effect of these changes was a $229 increase to “Accumulated deficit”, a $232 decrease to “Accumulated other comprehensive loss”, a $2 increase to “Finished and in-process goods” and a $1 increase to “Noncontrolling interest” in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

New Accounting Pronouncements, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Recently Issued Accounting Standards | ||||||||||||
In May, 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Board Update No. 2014-09: Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) (“ASU 2014-09”). ASU 2014-09 supersedes the existing revenue recognition guidance and most industry-specific guidance applicable to revenue recognition. According to the new guidance, an entity will apply a principles-based five step model to recognize revenue upon the transfer of promised goods or services to customers and in an amount that reflects the consideration for which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The tentative revised effective date for ASU 2014-09 is for annual and interim periods beginning on or after December 15, 2017, and early adoption will be permitted. Entities will have the option of using either a full retrospective approach or a modified approach to adopt the guidance in ASU 2014-09. The Company is currently assessing the potential impact of ASU 2014-09 on its financial statements. | |||||||||||||
In January 2015, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Board Update No. 2015-01: Income Statement—Extraordinary and Unusual Items (Subtopic 225-20): Simplifying Income Statement Presentation by Eliminating the Concept of Extraordinary Items (“ASU 2015-01”). ASU 2015-01 eliminates from U.S. GAAP the concept of extraordinary items and removes the requirement to present extraordinary items separately on the income statement, net of tax. The guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015, including interim periods within that reporting period. The requirements of ASU 2015-01 are not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements. | |||||||||||||
In February 2015, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Board Update No. 2015-02: Consolidation (Topic 810): Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis (“ASU 2015-02”). ASU 2015-02 amends the existing consolidation guidance related to (i) limited partnerships and similar legal entities, (ii) the evaluation of fees paid to a decision maker or a service provider as variable interest, (iii) the effect of fee arrangements on the primary beneficiary determination, and (iv) the effect of related parties on the primary beneficiary determination. ASU 2015-02 simplifies the existing guidance by reducing the number of consolidation models from four to two, reducing the extent to which related party arrangements cause an entity to be considered a primary beneficiary, and placing more emphasis on the risk of loss when determining a controlling financial interest. The guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015, including interim periods within that reporting period. The requirements of ASU 2015-02 are not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements. | |||||||||||||
In April 2015, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Board Update No. 2015-03: Interest—Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs (“ASU 2015-03”). ASU 2015-03 requires that debt issuance costs be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying value of the associated debt liability, and also requires that the amortization of such costs be reported as interest expense. The guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015, including interim periods within that reporting period, and early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently assessing the potential impact of ASU 2015-03 on its financial statements. |
