- Description: Even if it lost money, Cabot still would be in the black. The company is the world's #1 producer of carbon black, a reinforcing and pigmenting agent used in tires, inks, cables, and coatings. It has about 25% of the world market for carbon black. Cabot also makes fumed metal oxides such as fumed silica and fumed alumina, which are used as anti-caking, thickening, and reinforcing agents. Other products include tantalum (used to make capacitors used in electronics), thermoplastic concentrates, ink jet colorants, and fluids used in gas and oil drilling. Cabot also owns about 42% of Aearo Corporation (a maker of safety products such as eyewear; formerly Cabot Safety Holding Corporation).
