Segment Reporting [Abstract]  
SEGMENT INFORMATION SEGMENT INFORMATION
The Company's segments are aligned with the market verticals they serve, while maintaining integration and innovation strengths within strategic value chains. The Company's Chief Executive Officer is its Chief Operating Decision Maker ("CODM"). Effective in the first quarter of 2025, in anticipation of the Separation, DuPont and Qnity realigned their segment structure. As a result of this realignment, Qnity consists of two operating and reportable segments: Semiconductor Technologies (“Semi”) and Interconnect Solutions (“ICS”). All periods presented have been adjusted to conform to the current segment reporting structure. This realignment is consistent with how the CODM now assesses performance. Major products by segment include: Semi (which includes chemical mechanical planarization (“CMP”) pads and slurries, photoresists, functional sub-layers, advanced overcoats, post-CMP cleaners, post-Etch residue removers and emerging cleans) and ICS (which includes copper pillar plating, copper redistribution layer, solder bump plating, under bump metallization, photoresists, packaging dielectrics, gap fillers, phase change, specialty thermal interface materials, thermally conductive insulators, copper plating solutions, dry film photoresists, laminates and polyimide films). The Company operates globally in substantially all of its product lines. Transfers of products between operating segments are generally valued at cost, to the extent such transfers are applicable.
The Company's measure of profit/loss for segment reporting purposes is Adjusted Operating EBITDA as this is the manner in which the CODM assesses performance and allocates resources. The CODM utilizes Adjusted Operating EBITDA to assess financial performance and allocate resources by comparing actual results to historical and previously forecasted results. The Company defines Adjusted Operating EBITDA as earnings (i.e., “Income (loss) before income taxes”) before interest, depreciation, amortization, non-operating pension and other post-employment benefits / charges, and foreign exchange gains / losses, indirect legacy costs, and adjusted for significant items. Reconciliations of these measures are provided on the following pages.
