Significant Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Organization, Consolidation, Basis of Presentation, Business Description and Accounting Policies [Text Block] | SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared by Eastman Chemical Company ("Eastman" or the "Company") in accordance and consistent with the accounting policies stated in the Company's 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K , and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements in Part II, Item 8 of that report, with the exception of recently adopted accounting standards noted below. The December 31, 2021 financial position data included herein was derived from the consolidated financial statements included in the 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP"). In the opinion of management, the unaudited consolidated financial statements include all normal recurring adjustments necessary for the fair statement of the interim financial information in conformity with GAAP. These statements contain some amounts that are based upon management estimates and judgments. Future actual results could differ from such current estimates. The unaudited consolidated financial statements include assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses of business ventures for which a controlling interest is determined. Eastman accounts for other joint ventures and investments where it exercises significant influence on the equity basis. During the first nine months 2022, the Company contributed $24 million in a new joint venture located in Kingsport, Tennessee, which will produce acetylated wood. The Company owns a 40 percent interest in the joint venture. Intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated in consolidation. Certain prior period data has been reclassified in the unaudited consolidated financial statements and accompanying footnotes to conform to current period presentation, including sales revenue, earnings before interest and taxes ("EBIT"), and assets related to the divested rubber additives product lines and related assets and technology and the divested adhesives resins business. See Note 17, "Segment and Regional Sales Information" for more information. Recently Adopted Accounting Standards Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2021-05 Leases (Topic 842): Lessors—Certain Leases with Variable Lease Payments : On January 1, 2022, Eastman adopted this update which is a part of the Financial Accounting Standards Board's ("FASB") post-implementation review of this Topic. The update provides that lessors should classify and account for a lease with variable lease payments that do not depend on a reference index or a rate as an operating lease if both: the lease would have been classified as a sales-type lease or a direct financing lease and the lessor would have otherwise recognized a day-one loss. The adoption does not have significant impact on the Company's financial statements and related disclosures. ASU 2021-10 Government Assistance (Topic 832): Disclosures by Business Entities about Government Assistance : On January 1, 2022, Eastman adopted prospectively this amendment which requires business entities that account for transactions with a government by applying a grant or contribution model by analogy (for example, a grant model within International Financial Reporting Standards) to provide annual disclosures about government assistance recorded during the period. The adoption does not have significant impact on the Company's financial statements and related disclosures. Accounting Standards Issued But Not Adopted as of September 30, 2022 ASU 2021-08 Business Combinations (Topic 805): Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers : The FASB issued this update in October 2021, which requires that an entity (acquirer) recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in a business combination in accordance with Topic 606 Revenue from Contracts with Customers , as if it had originated the contracts. The update also provides certain practical expedients for acquirers and is applicable to all contract assets and liabilities within the scope of Topic 606. The expedients are as follows: "provides relief for contracts that have been previously modified before the acquisition date" and "relief for situations in which the acquirer does not have the appropriate data or expertise to analyze the historical periods in which the contract was entered into". This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those years. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. Adoption is on a prospective basis to business combinations occurring on or after the initial application and if adopted early, retrospectively to all business combinations for which the acquisition date occurs on or after the beginning of the fiscal year that includes the interim period of early application. Management does not expect that changes required by the new standard will have a significant impact on the Company's financial statements and related disclosures. ASU 2022-01 Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Fair Value Hedging—Portfolio Layer Method : The FASB issued this update in March 2022. This ASU clarifies the guidance in Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 815 on fair value hedge accounting of interest rate risk for portfolios of financial assets. This ASU amends the guidance in ASU 2017-12 (released on August 28, 2017) that, among other things, established the "last-of-layer" method for making the fair value hedge accounting for these portfolios more accessible. ASU 2022-01 renames that method the "portfolio layer" method and addresses feedback from stakeholders regarding its application. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those years. Management does not expect that changes required by the new standard will have a significant impact on the Company's financial statements and related disclosures. ASU 2022-02 Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures : The FASB issued this update in March 2022. This ASU updates the requirements for accounting for credit losses under ASC 326, eliminates the accounting guidance on troubled debt restructurings for creditors in ASC 310-40, and enhances creditors' disclosure requirements related to loan refinancings and restructurings for borrowers experiencing financial difficulty. This ASU also amends the guidance on "vintage disclosures" to require disclosure of gross write-offs by year of origination. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those years. Management does not expect that changes required by the new standard will have a significant impact on the Company's financial statements and related disclosures. ASU 2022-03 Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Fair Value Measurement of Equity Securities Subject to Contractual Sale Restrictions : The FASB issued this update in June 2022, which states that when measuring the fair value of an asset or a liability, a reporting entity should consider the characteristics of the asset or liability, including restrictions on the sale of the asset or liability, if a market participant also would take those characteristics into account. Key to that determination is the unit of account for the asset or liability being measured at fair value. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. Management does not expect that changes required by the new standard will have a significant impact on the Company's financial statements and related disclosures. ASU 2022-04 Liabilities - Supplier Finance Programs (Subtopic 405-50): Disclosure of Supplier Finance Program Obligations : The FASB issued this update in September 2022, which requires the buyer in a supplier finance program to disclose qualitative and quantitative information about the program. Required disclosures include information about the key terms of the program, outstanding confirmed amounts as of the end of the period, a rollforward of such amounts during each annual period, and a description of where in the financial statements outstanding amounts are presented. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years, except for the disclosure of rollforward information, which is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, with early adoption permitted. Management is currently evaluating the impact on the Company's financial statements and related disclosures. Working Capital Management and Off Balance Sheet Arrangements |

The sale did not include the Eastman Impera™ and other performance resins product lines of the tire additives business. The Company is providing certain business transition and post-closing services to the buyer on agreed terms. The business was not reported as a discontinued operation because the sale did not have a major effect on the Company's operations and financial results. The total estimated consideration, after estimates of contingent consideration and post-closing adjustments and ongoing agreements through October 2027, was $687 million. The additional amount of consideration of up to $75 million is to be paid based on performance of divested rubber additives through December 2023. The divestiture resulted in a $552 million loss (including cumulative translation adjustment liquidation of $23 million and certain costs to sell of $ 10 million The major classes of divested assets and liabilities as of the date of the divestiture were as follows: (Dollars in millions) Assets divested Trade receivables, net of allowance for doubtful accounts $ 107 Inventories 94 Other assets 26 Properties, net of accumulated depreciation 300 Goodwill 398 Intangible assets, net of accumulated amortization 381 Assets divested 1,306 Liabilities divested Payables and other liabilities 48 Post-employment obligations 34 Other liabilities 18 Liabilities divested 100 Disposal group, net $ 1,206 Separately, the Company recognized $4 million and $15 million of transaction costs for the divested business in first nine months 2022 and twelve months 2021, respectively.

Adhesives Resins Divestiture On April 1, 2022, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries completed the sale of its adhesives resins business, which included hydrocarbon resins (including Eastman Impera™ tire resins), pure monomer resins, polyolefin polymers, rosins and dispersions, and oleochemical and fatty-acid based resins product lines ("adhesives resins"), of its AFP segment. The business was not reported as a discontinued operation because the sale did not have a major effect on the Company's operations and financial results. Included in the adhesives resins divestiture was the 50 percent interest in a joint venture that has a manufacturing facility in Nanjing, China, which produces Eastotac™ hydrocarbon tackifying resins for pressure-sensitive adhesives, caulks, and sealants. The total estimated consideration, after estimates of post-closing adjustments, was $957 million.

Provision for income taxes was adjusted in third quarter 2022 to reflect finalization of the tax implications of the adhesives resins business divestiture, which, for first nine months 2022, is an increase of $38 million to the provision for income taxes. Third quarter and first nine months 2021 provision for income taxes included a $65 million decrease for income taxes as a result of decreases in unrecognized tax positions, a portion of which related to the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. Additionally, first nine months 2021 included a $20 million decrease to the provision for income taxes from the revaluation of deferred tax liabilities as a result of the rubber additives divestiture. At September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, Eastman had $230 million and $200 million, respectively, in unrecognized tax benefits. At September 30, 2022, it is expected that, as a result of the resolution of federal, state, and foreign examinations and appeals, and the expiration of various statutes of limitation, the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits could decrease by up to $15 million within the next 12 months. |

The carrying value of these euro-denominated borrowings have been designated as non-derivative net investment hedges of a portion of the Company's net investments in euro functional-currency denominated subsidiaries to offset foreign currency fluctuations. The Company repaid the 3.6% notes due August 2022, of which $550 million was repaid in second quarter 2022 primarily from proceeds from the 2027 Term Loan discussed below and $200 million was repaid in third quarter 2022 using available cash. There were no debt extinguishment costs associated with the repayment of this debt. Credit Facility, Term Loan, and Commercial Paper Borrowings The Company has access to a $1.50 billion revolving credit agreement (the "Credit Facility") expiring December 2026. Borrowings under the Credit Facility are subject to interest at varying spreads above quoted market rates and a commitment fee is paid on the total unused commitment. The Credit Facility includes sustainability-linked pricing terms, provides available liquidity for general corporate purposes, and supports commercial paper borrowings. Commercial paper borrowings are classified as short-term. At September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had no outstanding borrowings under the Credit Facility. At September 30, 2022, the Company's commercial paper borrowings were $355 million with a weighted average interest rate of 3.64 percent. At December 31, 2021, the Company had no outstanding commercial paper borrowings. In April 2022, the Company borrowed $500 million under a five-year term loan agreement (the "2027 Term Loan"). The 2027 Term Loan had a variable interest rate of 4.30 percent as of September 30, 2022. Borrowings under the 2027 Term Loan are subject to interest at varying spreads above quoted market rates. The Credit Facility and 2027 Term Loan contain customary covenants, including requirements to maintain certain financial ratios, that determine the events of default, amounts available, and terms of borrowings. The Company was in compliance with all applicable covenants at both September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract] | |
DERIVATIVES | DERIVATIVE AND NON-DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS Overview of Hedging Programs Eastman is exposed to market risks, such as changes in foreign currency exchange rates, commodity prices, and interest rates. To mitigate these market risks and their effects on the cash flows of the underlying transactions and investments in foreign subsidiaries, the Company uses various derivative and non-derivative financial instruments, when appropriate, in accordance with the Company's hedging strategy and policies. Designation is performed on a specific exposure basis to support hedge accounting. The Company does not enter into derivative transactions for speculative purposes. For further information on hedging programs, see Note 10, "Derivative and Non-Derivative Financial Instruments", to the consolidated financial statements in Part II, Item 8 of the Company's 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K . Cash Flow Hedges Cash flow hedges are derivative instruments designated as and used to hedge the exposure to variability in expected future cash flows that are attributable to a particular risk. The derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as a cash flow hedge are reported on the balance sheet at fair value and the changes in fair value of these hedging instruments are offset in part or in whole by corresponding changes in the anticipated cash flows of the underlying exposures being hedged. The change in the hedge instrument is reported as a component of "Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss)" ("AOCI") on the Unaudited Consolidated Statements of Financial Position and reclassified into earnings in the same period or periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. Cash flows from cash flow hedges are classified as operating activities in the Unaudited Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. In third quarter 2022, the Company settled the notional amount of $75 million associated with the 2022 forward starting interest rate swap, resulting in a cash gain of $13 million which is included as part of operating activities in the Unaudited Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. The recognized gain from cash flow hedges of $1 million is included within "Net interest expense" on the Unaudited Consolidated Statements of Earnings, Comprehensive Income and Retained Earnings and the unrecognized gain of $12 million from cash flow hedges is included in "Accumulated other comprehensive income" on the Unaudited Consolidated Statements of Financial Position. Fair Value Hedges Fair value hedges are defined as derivative or non-derivative instruments designated as and used to hedge the exposure to changes in the fair value of an asset or a liability or an identified portion thereof that is attributable to a particular risk. The derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as fair value hedges are reported as "Long-term borrowings" on the Unaudited Consolidated Statements of Financial Position at fair value and the changes in fair value of these hedging instruments are offset in part or in whole by corresponding changes in the anticipated fair value of the underlying exposures being hedged. The net of the change in the hedge instrument and item being hedged for qualifying fair value hedges is recognized in earnings in the same period or periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. Cash flows from fair value hedges are classified as operating activities in the Unaudited Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. Net Investment Hedges Net investment hedges are defined as derivative or non-derivative instruments designated as and used to hedge the foreign currency exposure of the net investments in certain foreign operations. The net of the change in the hedge instrument and item being hedged for qualifying net investment hedges is reported as a component of the "Cumulative Translation Adjustment" ("CTA") within AOCI on the Unaudited Consolidated Statements of Financial Position. Cash flows from the CTA component are classified as operating activities in the Unaudited Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. Recognition in earnings of amounts previously recognized in CTA is limited to circumstances such as complete or substantially complete liquidation of the net investment in the hedged foreign operation. In the event of a complete or substantially complete liquidation of the net investment, cash flows from net investment hedges are classified as investing activities in the Unaudited Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. For derivative cross-currency interest rate swap net investment hedges, gains and losses representing hedge components excluded from the assessment of effectiveness are recognized in CTA within AOCI and recognized in earnings through the periodic swap interest accruals. The cross-currency interest rate swaps designated as net investment hedges are included as part of "Other long-term liabilities", "Other noncurrent assets", "Payables and other current liabilities", or "Other current assets" on the Unaudited Consolidated Statements of Financial Position. Cash flows from excluded components are classified as operating activities in the Unaudited Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. In second quarter 2022, the Company terminated fixed-to-fixed cross-currency swaps designated to hedge a portion of its net investment in a euro functional currency denominated subsidiary against foreign currency fluctuations. The notional amount terminated was €266 million ($320 million) which was scheduled to mature in August 2022. The termination resulted in a $40 million gain recognized in CTA. The related cash flows were classified as investing activities in the Unaudited Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. Summary of Financial Position and Financial Performance of Hedging Ins truments The following table presents the notional amounts outstanding at September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 associated with Eastman's hedging programs. Notional Outstanding September 30, 2022 December 31, 2021 Derivatives designated as cash flow hedges: Foreign Exchange Forward and Option Contracts (in millions) EUR/USD (in EUR) €612 €429 Commodity Forward and Collar Contracts Feedstock (in million barrels) 1 1 Energy (in million british thermal units) 5 13 Interest rate swaps for the future issuance of debt (in millions) — $75 Derivatives designated as fair value hedges: Fixed-for-floating interest rate swaps (in millions) $75 $75 Derivatives designated as net investment hedges: Cross-currency interest rate swaps (in millions) EUR/USD (in EUR) €587 €853 Non-derivatives designated as net investment hedges: Foreign Currency Net Investment Hedges (in millions) EUR/USD (in EUR) €1,246 €1,246 Fair Value Measurements All the Company's derivative assets and liabilities are currently classified as Level 2. Level 2 fair value is based on estimates using standard pricing models. These standard pricing models use inputs that are derived from or corroborated by observable market data such as interest rate yield curves and currency spot and forward rates. The fair value of commodity contracts is derived using forward curves supplied by an industry recognized and unrelated third party. In addition, on an ongoing basis, the Company tests a subset of its valuations against valuations received from transaction counterparties to validate the accuracy of its standard pricing models. The Company had no derivatives classified as Level 3 as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021. Counterparties to these derivative contracts are highly rated financial institutions which the Company believes carry minimal risk of nonperformance, and the Company diversifies its positions among such counterparties to reduce its exposure to counterparty risk and credit losses. The Company monitors the creditworthiness of its counterparties on an ongoing basis. The Company did not recognize a credit loss during third quarter and first nine months 2022 or 2021. All the Company's derivative contracts are subject to master netting arrangements, or similar agreements, which provide for the option to settle contracts on a net basis when they settle on the same day and in the same currency. In addition, these arrangements provide for a net settlement of all contracts with a given counterparty in the event that the arrangement is terminated due to the occurrence of default or a termination event. The Company does not have any cash collateral due under such agreements. The Company has elected to present derivative contracts on a gross basis on the Unaudited Consolidated Statements of Financial Position. The following table presents the financial assets and liabilities valued on a recurring and gross basis and includes where the financial assets and liabilities are on the Unaudited Consolidated Statements of Financial Position as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021.

These derivatives are not designated as hedges due to the short-term nature and the gains or losses on these derivatives are marked-to-market in line item "Other (income) charges, net" in the Unaudited Consolidated Statements of Earnings, Comprehensive Income and Retained Earnings. As a result of these derivatives, the Company recognized a net loss of $5 million and $11 million during third quarter and first nine months 2022, respectively, and recognized a net gain of $5 million during both third quarter 2021 and first nine months 2021. Pre-tax monetized positions and mark-to-market gains and losses from raw materials and energy, currency, and certain interest rate hedges that were included in AOCI included net gains of $362 million and net losses of $7 million at September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. Gains in AOCI increased between December 31, 2021 and September 30, 2022 primarily as a result of an increase in euro to U.S. dollar exchange rates. If recognized, approximately $59 million in pre-tax gains, as of September 30, 2022, would be reclassified into earnings during the next 12 months. |

Retirement Benefits [Abstract] | |
RETIREMENT PLANS | RETIREMENT PLANS Defined Benefit Pension Plans and Other Postretirement Benefit Plans Eastman maintains defined benefit pension plans that provide eligible employees with retirement benefits. In addition, Eastman provides life insurance for eligible retirees hired prior to January 1, 2007. The Company provided a subsidy for pre-Medicare health care and dental benefits to eligible retirees hired prior to January 1, 2007 that ended on December 31, 2021. Company funding is also provided for eligible Medicare retirees hired prior to January 1, 2007 with a health reimbursement arrangement. Costs recognized for these benefits are estimated amounts, which may change as actual costs for the year are determined. For additional information regarding retirement plans, see Note 11, "Retirement Plans", to the consolidated financial statements in Part II, Item 8 of the Company's 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K . Components of net periodic benefit (credit) cost were as follows: Third Quarter Pension Plans Other Postretirement Benefit Plans 2022 2021 2022 2021 (Dollars in millions) U.S. Non-U.S. U.S. Non-U.S. Service cost $ 7 $ 2 $ 7 $ 5 $ — $ — Interest cost 11 3 9 3 4 3 Expected return on assets (32) (7) (31) (9) (1) (1) Amortization of: Prior service credit, net — — — (1) (8) (9) Net periodic benefit (credit) cost $ (14) $ (2) $ (15) $ (2) $ (5) $ (7) First Nine Months Pension Plans Other Postretirement Benefit Plans 2022 2021 2022 2021 (Dollars in millions) U.S. Non-U.S. U.S. Non-U.S. Service cost $ 19 $ 9 $ 20 $ 14 $ — $ — Interest cost 33 11 27 9 11 9 Expected return on assets (96) (24) (94) (28) (3) (3) Amortization of: Prior service credit, net — — — (1) (24) (28) Mark-to-market pension and other postretirement benefits (gain) loss (1) 7 (10) — — — — Net periodic benefit (credit) cost $ (37) $ (14) $ (47) $ (6) $ (16) $ (22) (1) Also includes curtailment triggered by the sale of the adhesives resins business which is included in "Other components of post-employment (benefit) cost, net" on the Unaudited Consolidated Statements of Earnings, Comprehensive Income and Retained Earnings. Subsequent to the adhesives resins divestiture, the Company retained pension liabilities of certain plan participants while the status of the participants changed in a Non-U.S. pension plan which triggered a curtailment and an interim mark-to-market ("MTM") remeasurement of the impacted Non-U.S. pension plan's assets and liabilities. First nine months 2022 includes a curtailment gain of $7 million and a MTM gain of $3 million. Settlements are triggered in a plan when distributions exceed the sum of service cost and interest cost of the respective plan. Lump sum payments from a U.S. pension plan resulted in a plan settlement in second quarter 2022. The settlement itself was not material, but it triggered an interim MTM remeasurement of the impacted U.S. pension plan's assets and liabilities. First nine months 2022 includes a $7 million MTM loss. |

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Commitments Disclosure [Text Block] | LEASES AND OTHER COMMITMENTS Leases There are two types of leases: financing and operating. Both types of leases have associated right-to-use assets and lease liabilities that are valued at the present value of the lease payments and recognized on the Unaudited Consolidated Statements of Financial Position. The discount rate used in the measurement of a right-to-use asset and lease liability is the rate implicit in the lease whenever that rate is readily determinable. If the rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable, the collateralized incremental borrowing rate is used. The Company elected the accounting policy not to apply the recognition and measurement requirements to short-term leases with a term of 12 months or less and do not include a bargain purchase option. The Company has operating leases, as a lessee, with customary terms that do not include: significant variable lease payments; significant reasonably certain extensions or options required to be included in the lease term; restrictions; or other covenants for real property, rolling stock, and machinery and equipment. Real property leases primarily consist of office space and rolling stock leases primarily for railcars and fleet vehicles. At September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, right-to-use assets for operating leases totaled $205 million and $216 million, respectively, and are included as part of "Other noncurrent assets" on the Unaudited Consolidated Statements of Financial Position. At both September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the operating right-to-use assets include $3 million of assets previously classified as lease intangibles and $5 million of prepaid lease assets. Operating lease liabilities are included as part of "Payables and other current liabilities" and "Other long-term liabilities" on the Unaudited Consolidated Statements of Financial Position. As of September 30, 2022, financing leases were not material to the Company's financial statements. As of September 30, 2022, reconciliation of lease payments and operating lease liabilities is provided below: (Dollars in millions) Operating Lease Liabilities Remainder of 2022 $ 15 2023 53 2024 40 2025 32 2026 22 2027 and beyond 52 Total lease payments 214 Less: amounts of lease payments representing interest 18 Present value of future lease payments 196 Less: current obligations under leases 50 Long-term lease obligations $ 146 The Company has operating leases, primarily leases for railcars, with terms that require the Company to guarantee a portion of the residual value of the leased assets upon termination of the lease that will expire beginning third quarter 2023. Residual guarantee payments that become probable and estimable are recognized as rent expense over the remaining life of the applicable lease. Management's current expectation is that the likelihood of material residual guarantee payments is remote. Lease costs during the period and other information is provided below: Third Quarter First Nine Months (Dollars in millions) 2022 2021 2022 2021 Lease costs: Operating lease costs $ 16 $ 18 $ 50 $ 54 Short-term lease costs 13 9 34 28 Sublease income (3) (1) (10) (3) Total $ 26 $ 26 $ 74 $ 79 Other operating lease information: Cash paid for amounts included in the measurement of lease liabilities $ 18 $ 17 $ 51 $ 52 Right-to-use assets obtained in exchange for new lease liabilities $ 15 $ 33 $ 50 $ 59 Weighted-average remaining lease term, in years 6 6 Weighted-average discount rate 3.0 % 3.1 % |

Accrual for Environmental Loss Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Environmental Matters | ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS AND ASSET RETIREMENT OBLIGATIONS Certain Eastman manufacturing facilities generate hazardous and nonhazardous wastes, of which the treatment, storage, transportation, and disposal are regulated by various governmental agencies. In connection with the cleanup of various hazardous waste sites, the Company, along with many other entities, has been designated a potentially responsible party ("PRP") by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act, which potentially subjects PRPs to joint and several liability for certain cleanup costs. In addition, the Company will incur costs for environmental remediation and closure and post-closure under the federal Resource Conservation and Recovery Act. Reserves for environmental contingencies have been established in accordance with Eastman's policies described in Note 1, "Significant Accounting Policies", to the consolidated financial statements in Part II, Item 8 of the Company's 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K . The resolution of uncertainties related to environmental matters may have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated results of operations in the period recognized. However, because of the availability of legal defenses, the Company's preliminary assessment of actions that may be required, and the extended period of time that the obligations are expected to be satisfied, management does not believe that the Company's liability for these environmental matters, individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on the Company's future overall financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. Environmental Remediation and Environmental Asset Retirement Obligations The Company's net environmental reserve for environmental contingencies, including remediation costs and asset retirement obligations, is included as part of "Other noncurrent assets", "Payables and other current liabilities", and "Other long-term liabilities" on the Unaudited Consolidated Statements of Financial Position as follows: (Dollars in millions) September 30, 2022 December 31, 2021 Environmental contingencies, current $ 10 $ 20 Environmental contingencies, long-term 264 261 Total $ 274 $ 281 Environmental Remediation Estimated future environmental expenditures for undiscounted remediation costs ranged from the best estimate or minimum of $246 million to the maximum of $461 million and from the best estimate or minimum of $253 million to the maximum of $473 million at September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. The best estimate or minimum estimated future environmental expenditures are considered to be probable and reasonably estimable and include the amounts recognized at both September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021. Reserves for environmental remediation include liabilities expected to be paid within approximately 30 years. The amounts charged to pre-tax earnings for environmental remediation and related charges are recognized in "Cost of sales" and "Other (income) charges, net" in the Unaudited Consolidated Statements of Earnings, Comprehensive Income and Retained Earnings. Changes in the reserves for environmental remediation liabilities during first nine months 2022 and full year 2021 are summarized below: (Dollars in millions) Environmental Remediation Liabilities Balance at December 31, 2020 $ 257 Changes in estimates recognized in earnings and other 9 Cash reductions (13) Balance at December 31, 2021 253 Changes in estimates recognized in earnings and other 4 Cash reductions (11) Balance at September 30, 2022 $ 246 Environmental Asset Retirement Obligations An asset retirement obligation is an obligation for the retirement of a tangible long-lived asset that is incurred upon the acquisition, construction, development, or normal operation of that long-lived asset. Environmental asset retirement obligations consist of primarily closure and post-closure costs. For sites that have environmental asset retirement obligations, the best estimate recognized to date for these environmental asset retirement obligation costs was $28 million at both September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021. Non-Environmental Asset Retirement Obligations The Company has contractual asset retirement obligations not associated with environmental liabilities. Eastman's non-environmental asset retirement obligations are primarily associated with the future closure of leased manufacturing assets in Pace, Florida and Oulu, Finland. These non-environmental asset retirement obligations were $50 million and $51 million at September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, and are included in "Other long-term liabilities" on the Unaudited Consolidated Statements of Financial Position. |

Earnings Per Share [Abstract] | |
Earnings Per Share | EARNINGS AND DIVIDENDS PER SHARE The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share ("EPS") which are calculated using the treasury stock method: Third Quarter First Nine Months (In millions, except per share amounts) 2022 2021 2022 2021 Numerator Earnings attributable to Eastman, net of tax $ 301 $ 351 $ 792 $ 479 Denominator Weighted average shares used for basic EPS 121.0 135.3 124.9 135.8 Dilutive effect of stock options and other awards 1.3 1.7 1.5 1.8 Weighted average shares used for diluted EPS 122.3 137.0 126.4 137.6 (Calculated using whole dollars and shares) EPS Basic $ 2.48 $ 2.60 $ 6.34 $ 3.53 Diluted $ 2.46 $ 2.57 $ 6.26 $ 3.49 Shares underlying stock options of 1,342,328 and 327,782 for third quarter 2022 and 2021, respectively, and 1,342,328 and 150,781 for first nine months 2022 and 2021, respectively, were excluded from calculations of diluted EPS because the grant date exercise price of these options was greater than the average market price of the Company's common stock and the effect of including them in the calculation of diluted EPS would have been antidilutive. There were 2,839,875 and 9,505,944 share repurchases in third quarter and first nine months 2022, respectively, and 1,354,737 and 2,543,112 share repurchases in third quarter and first nine months 2021, respectively. The Company declared cash dividends of $0.76 and $0.69 per share for third quarter 2022 and 2021, respectively, and $2.28 and $2.07 per share for first nine months 2022 and 2021, respectively. In December 2021, the Company's Board of Directors authorized the additional repurchase of up to $2.5 billion of the Company's outstanding common stock at such times, in such amounts, and on such terms, as determined by management to be in the best interest of the Company and its stockholders (the "2021 authorization"). In second quarter 2022, the Company entered into the 2022 ASR to purchase $500 million of the Company's common stock under the board approved authorizations. In exchange for upfront payment totaling $500 million, the financial institutions committed to deliver shares during the 2022 ASR's purchase period, which was settled in third quarter 2022. The total number of shares ultimately delivered was determined at the end of the applicable purchase period based on the volume-weighted average price of the Company's stock during the term of the 2022 ASR, less a discount. As of September 30, 2022, all shares repurchased under the 2022 ASR have been delivered. Approximately 80 percent of the expected shares repurchased under the 2022 ASR were delivered in second quarter 2022, and a final settlement of 1,212,732 shares were delivered in third quarter 2022. |

Basis of Presentation [Abstract] | |
Basis of Accounting, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared by Eastman Chemical Company ("Eastman" or the "Company") in accordance and consistent with the accounting policies stated in the Company's 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K , and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements in Part II, Item 8 of that report, with the exception of recently adopted accounting standards noted below. The December 31, 2021 financial position data included herein was derived from the consolidated financial statements included in the 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP"). In the opinion of management, the unaudited consolidated financial statements include all normal recurring adjustments necessary for the fair statement of the interim financial information in conformity with GAAP. These statements contain some amounts that are based upon management estimates and judgments. Future actual results could differ from such current estimates. The unaudited consolidated financial statements include assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses of business ventures for which a controlling interest is determined. Eastman accounts for other joint ventures and investments where it exercises significant influence on the equity basis. During the first nine months 2022, the Company contributed $24 million in a new joint venture located in Kingsport, Tennessee, which will produce acetylated wood. The Company owns a 40 percent interest in the joint venture. Intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated in consolidation. Certain prior period data has been reclassified in the unaudited consolidated financial statements and accompanying footnotes to conform to current period presentation, including sales revenue, earnings before interest and taxes ("EBIT"), and assets related to the divested rubber additives product lines and related assets and technology and the divested adhesives resins business. See Note 17, "Segment and Regional Sales Information" for more information. |
New Accounting Pronouncements, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Recently Adopted Accounting Standards Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2021-05 Leases (Topic 842): Lessors—Certain Leases with Variable Lease Payments : On January 1, 2022, Eastman adopted this update which is a part of the Financial Accounting Standards Board's ("FASB") post-implementation review of this Topic. The update provides that lessors should classify and account for a lease with variable lease payments that do not depend on a reference index or a rate as an operating lease if both: the lease would have been classified as a sales-type lease or a direct financing lease and the lessor would have otherwise recognized a day-one loss. The adoption does not have significant impact on the Company's financial statements and related disclosures. ASU 2021-10 Government Assistance (Topic 832): Disclosures by Business Entities about Government Assistance : On January 1, 2022, Eastman adopted prospectively this amendment which requires business entities that account for transactions with a government by applying a grant or contribution model by analogy (for example, a grant model within International Financial Reporting Standards) to provide annual disclosures about government assistance recorded during the period. The adoption does not have significant impact on the Company's financial statements and related disclosures. Accounting Standards Issued But Not Adopted as of September 30, 2022 ASU 2021-08 Business Combinations (Topic 805): Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers : The FASB issued this update in October 2021, which requires that an entity (acquirer) recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in a business combination in accordance with Topic 606 Revenue from Contracts with Customers , as if it had originated the contracts. The update also provides certain practical expedients for acquirers and is applicable to all contract assets and liabilities within the scope of Topic 606. The expedients are as follows: "provides relief for contracts that have been previously modified before the acquisition date" and "relief for situations in which the acquirer does not have the appropriate data or expertise to analyze the historical periods in which the contract was entered into". This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those years. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. Adoption is on a prospective basis to business combinations occurring on or after the initial application and if adopted early, retrospectively to all business combinations for which the acquisition date occurs on or after the beginning of the fiscal year that includes the interim period of early application. Management does not expect that changes required by the new standard will have a significant impact on the Company's financial statements and related disclosures. ASU 2022-01 Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Fair Value Hedging—Portfolio Layer Method : The FASB issued this update in March 2022. This ASU clarifies the guidance in Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 815 on fair value hedge accounting of interest rate risk for portfolios of financial assets. This ASU amends the guidance in ASU 2017-12 (released on August 28, 2017) that, among other things, established the "last-of-layer" method for making the fair value hedge accounting for these portfolios more accessible. ASU 2022-01 renames that method the "portfolio layer" method and addresses feedback from stakeholders regarding its application. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those years. Management does not expect that changes required by the new standard will have a significant impact on the Company's financial statements and related disclosures. ASU 2022-02 Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures : The FASB issued this update in March 2022. This ASU updates the requirements for accounting for credit losses under ASC 326, eliminates the accounting guidance on troubled debt restructurings for creditors in ASC 310-40, and enhances creditors' disclosure requirements related to loan refinancings and restructurings for borrowers experiencing financial difficulty. This ASU also amends the guidance on "vintage disclosures" to require disclosure of gross write-offs by year of origination. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those years. Management does not expect that changes required by the new standard will have a significant impact on the Company's financial statements and related disclosures. ASU 2022-03 Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Fair Value Measurement of Equity Securities Subject to Contractual Sale Restrictions : The FASB issued this update in June 2022, which states that when measuring the fair value of an asset or a liability, a reporting entity should consider the characteristics of the asset or liability, including restrictions on the sale of the asset or liability, if a market participant also would take those characteristics into account. Key to that determination is the unit of account for the asset or liability being measured at fair value. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. Management does not expect that changes required by the new standard will have a significant impact on the Company's financial statements and related disclosures. |
Off-Balance-Sheet Credit Exposure, Policy | Working Capital Management and Off Balance Sheet ArrangementsThe Company has an off balance sheet, uncommitted accounts receivable factoring program under which entire invoices may be sold, without recourse, to third-party financial institutions. Under these agreements, the Company sells the invoices at face value, less a transaction fee, which substantially equals the carrying value and fair value with no gain or loss recognized, and no credit loss exposure is retained. Available capacity under these agreements, which the Company uses as a routine source of working capital funding, is dependent on the level of accounts receivable eligible to be sold and the financial institutions' willingness to purchase such receivables. In addition, certain agreements also require that the Company continue to service, administer, and collect the sold accounts receivable at market rates. The total amounts sold under the program in third quarter 2022 and 2021 were $700 million and $252 million, respectively, and $1,839 million and $839 million in first nine months 2022 and 2021, respectively. |
