Celanese Corp. (<a href=http://www.zacks.com/stock/quote/ce>CE</a>) is a global hybrid chemical company based in Dallas. The company produces chemical substances and materials. <p> Weak market conditions drove a dramatic decline in overall global demand for many industries which affected Celanese operations. Recessionary trends, coupled with inventory destocking, resulted in sharp volume declines in the Advanced Engineered Materials and the Acetyl Intermediates businesses. <p> The company expects volumes to remain under pressure in 2009, even with the easing of inventory destocking.
