To which company are the machines and territories sold too, and who owns the majority stake of the "spin" out company?

I have heard that so often, that this or that technology is faded out in the car industry, and in reality, that just ment, the factory is carefully dissasembled, shipped to some 2nd world or 3rd world country, reassembled and buisness just continus or more often then not, actually expands. Fridges, diesel cars, you name it.

One thing about fluorine chemistry is that it is an exquisite engineering challenge. The reason these molecules are majority synthesized by the major chemical companies is that smaller players lack the capacity to run these plants. There have been catastrophic explosions at more than one plant in China.
