We saw strong margin expansion, with sequential improvements in volumes and net sales in both materials and consumer and resources. However, it is still too early to call it a trend, and we therefore reiterate our full year outlook.

In addition we announced new and ambitious partnerships, launched new disruptive technologies to advance our leadership positions in aerospace, electric vehicles and specialty coatings, as well as making a bolt-on investment in high value dermocosmetics to enhance our portfolio in the consumer market."
