(“DowDuPont” and effective June 3, 2019, n/k/a DuPont de Nemours, Inc. or "DuPont") completed the separation of its materials science business and Dow Inc. became the direct parent company of The Dow Chemical Company and its consolidated subsidiaries (“TDCC” and together with Dow Inc., “Dow” or the “Company”). The separation was contemplated by the merger of equals transaction effective August 31, 2017, under the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of December 11, 2015, as amended on March 31, 2017. TDCC and E. I. du Pont de Nemours and Company and its consolidated subsidiaries (“Historical DuPont”) each merged with subsidiaries of DowDuPont and, as a result, TDCC and Historical DuPont became subsidiaries of DowDuPont (the “Merger”). Subsequent to the Merger, TDCC and Historical DuPont engaged in a series of internal reorganization and realignment steps to realign their businesses into three subgroups: agriculture, materials science and specialty products. Dow Inc. was formed as a wholly owned subsidiary of DowDuPont to serve as the holding company for the materials science business. See Note 3 for additional information. Basis of Presentation The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements of Dow Inc. and TDCC were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and reflect all adjustments (including normal recurring accruals) which, in the opinion of management, are considered necessary for the fair presentation of the results for the periods presented. These statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in TDCC's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 . Effective April 1, 2019, Dow Inc. owns all of the outstanding common shares of TDCC. TDCC is deemed the predecessor to Dow Inc. and the historical results of TDCC are deemed the historical results of Dow Inc. for periods prior to and including March 31, 2019. As a result of the parent/subsidiary relationship between Dow Inc. and TDCC, and the expectation that the financial statements and disclosures of each company will be substantially similar, the companies are filing a combined report for this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The information reflected in the report is equally applicable to both Dow Inc. and TDCC, except where otherwise noted. As of the effective date and time of the distribution, DowDuPont does not beneficially own any equity interest in Dow and no longer consolidates Dow and its consolidated subsidiaries into its financial results. The consolidated financial results of Dow for all periods presented reflect the distribution of TDCC’s agricultural sciences business (“AgCo”) and specialty products business (“SpecCo”) as discontinued operations, as well as the receipt of Historical DuPont’s ethylene and ethylene copolymers businesses (other than its ethylene acrylic elastomers business) (“ECP”) as a common control transaction from the closing of the Merger on August 31, 2017. See Note 3 and Dow Inc.'s Amendment No. 4 to the Registration Statement on Form 10 filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") on March 8, 2019 for additional information. Effective with the Merger, the Company's business activities were components of DowDuPont's business operations and therefore, were reported as a single operating segment. Following the separation from DowDuPont, the Company changed the manner in which its business activities were managed. The Company's portfolio now includes six global businesses which are organized into the following operating segments: Performance Materials & Coatings, Industrial Intermediates & Infrastructure and Packaging & Specialty Plastics. Corporate contains the reconciliation between the totals for the operating segments and the Company's totals. See Note 23 for additional information. From the Merger date through the separation, transactions between DowDuPont, TDCC and Historical DuPont and their affiliates were treated as related party transactions. Transactions between TDCC and Historical DuPont primarily consisted of the sale and procurement of certain raw materials that were consumed in each company's manufacturing process. Transactions between TDCC and Dow Inc. are treated as related party transactions for TDCC. See Note 22 for additional information. Throughout this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, unless otherwise indicated, amounts and activity are presented on a continuing operations basis. Except as otherwise indicated by the context, the term "Union Carbide" means Union Carbide Corporation and "Dow Silicones" means Dow Silicones Corporation, both wholly owned subsidiaries of the Company. Adoption of Accounting Standards 2019 In the first quarter of 2019, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2016-02, "Leases (Topic 842)," and associated ASUs (collectively, "Topic 842"). See Notes 2 and 14 for additional information. The Company added a significant accounting policy for leases as a result of the adoption of Topic 842: Leases The Company determines whether a contract contains a lease at contract inception. A contract contains a lease if there is an identified asset and the Company has the right to control the asset. Operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets represent the Company's right to use an underlying asset for the lease term, and lease liabilities represent the Company's obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease ROU assets and lease liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. The Company uses the incremental borrowing rate (“IBR”) in determining the present value of lease payments, unless the implicit rate is readily determinable. If lease terms include options to extend or terminate the lease, the ROU asset and lease liability are measured based on the reasonably certain decision. Leases with a term of 12 months or less at the commencement date are not recognized on the balance sheet and are expensed as incurred. The Company has lease agreements with lease and non-lease components, which are accounted for as a single lease component for all classes of leased assets for which the Company is the lessee. Additionally, for certain equipment leases, the portfolio approach is applied to account for the operating lease ROU assets and lease liabilities. In the consolidated statements of income, lease expense for operating lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. For finance leases, interest expense is recognized on the lease liability and the ROU asset is amortized over the lease term. Some leasing arrangements require variable payments that are dependent upon usage or output, or may vary for other reasons, such as insurance or tax payments. Variable lease payments are recognized as incurred and are not presented as part of the ROU asset or lease liability. Additionally, the Company's consolidated balance sheet reflects the impact of the adoption of ASU 2014-09, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)" and the associated ASUs (collectively, "Topic 606") at January 1, 2019, by certain nonconsolidated affiliates of the Company, which were subsequently distributed as part of the separation. The impact to the Company's investment was a reduction to "Investment in nonconsolidated affiliates" of $71 million and an increase to "Other noncurrent obligations" of $168 million , as well as an increase to "Deferred income tax assets" of $56 million and a reduction to "Retained earnings" of $183 million in the consolidated balance sheets at January 1, 2019. 2018 In the first quarter of 2018, the Company adopted Topic 606, ASU 2016-01, "Financial Instruments - Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities" and ASU 2016-16, "Income Taxes (Topic 740): Intra-Entity Transfers of Assets Other Than Inventory." The adoption of these ASUs resulted in a net decrease of $68 million to retained earnings and a decrease of $20 million to accumulated other comprehensive loss ("AOCL") in the consolidated statements of equity at January 1, 2018. In the second quarter of 2018, the Company early adopted ASU 2018-02, "Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income ("ASU 2018-02")." The adoption of this standard resulted in a $1,057 million increase to retained earnings due to the reclassification from AOCL in the consolidated statements of equity at April 1, 2018. Dividends Effective with the Merger, TDCC no longer had publicly traded common stock. TDCC's common shares were owned solely by its parent company, DowDuPont, prior to separation and TDCC’s Board of Directors determined whether or not there would be a dividend distribution to DowDuPont.

Accounting Changes and Error Corrections [Abstract] | |
RECENT ACCOUNTING GUIDANCE | RECENT ACCOUNTING GUIDANCE Recently Adopted Accounting Guidance In the first quarter of 2019, the Company adopted ASU 2016-02, "Leases (Topic 842)," and associated ASUs related to Topic 842, which requires organizations that lease assets to recognize on the balance sheet the assets and liabilities for the rights and obligations created by those leases. The new guidance requires that a lessee recognize assets and liabilities for leases, and recognition, presentation and measurement in the financial statements will depend on its classification as a finance or operating lease. In addition, the new guidance requires disclosures to help investors and other financial statement users better understand the amount, timing and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. Lessor accounting remains largely unchanged from legacy U.S. GAAP but does contain some targeted improvements to align with the new revenue recognition guidance in Topic 606, issued in 2014. The new standard was effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018, and early adoption was permitted. The Company adopted Topic 842 using the modified retrospective transition approach, applying the new standard to leases existing at the date of initial adoption. The Company elected to apply the transition requirements at the effective date rather than at the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented with a cumulative effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption, and prior periods were not restated. In addition, the Company elected to apply the package of practical expedients permitted under the transition guidance which does not require reassessment of prior conclusions, lease classification and initial direct lease costs. The Company did not elect to use the hindsight practical expedient in determining the lease term or assessing impairment of ROU assets. Adoption of the new standard resulted in the recording of operating lease ROU assets and lease liabilities of $2.3 billion at January 1, 2019. The net impact to retained earnings was an increase of $72 million and was primarily a result of the recognition of a deferred gain associated with a prior sale-leaseback transaction. The adoption of the new guidance did not have a material impact on Dow's consolidated statements of income and had no impact on cash flows. See Note 14 for additional information. Accounting Guidance Issued But Not Adopted at June 30, 2019 In August 2018, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASU 2018-13, "Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework - Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement," which is part of the FASB disclosure framework project to improve the effectiveness of disclosures in the notes to the financial statements. The amendments in the new guidance remove, modify and add certain disclosure requirements related to fair value measurements covered in Topic 820, "Fair Value Measurement." The new standard is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted for either the entire standard or only the requirements that modify or eliminate the disclosure requirements, with certain requirements applied prospectively, and all other requirements applied retrospectively to all periods presented. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance. In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-15, "Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Customer's Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That is a Service Contract," which requires a customer in a cloud computing arrangement that is a service contract to follow the internal-use software guidance in Topic 350, "Intangibles - Goodwill and Other" to determine which implementation costs to capitalize as assets or expense as incurred. The new standard is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted and an entity can elect to apply the new guidance on a prospective or retrospective basis. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance. |
SEPARATION FROM DOWDUPONT Separ
SEPARATION FROM DOWDUPONT Separation from DowDuPont (Notes) | 6 Months Ended |

Discontinued Operations and Disposal Groups [Abstract] | |
Separation from DowDuPont [Text Block] | SEPARATION FROM DOWDUPONT On April 1, 2019, DowDuPont completed the previously announced separation of its materials science business. The separation was effected by way of a pro rata distribution of all of the then-issued and outstanding shares of Dow Inc. common stock to DowDuPont stockholders of record as of the close of business, Eastern Time, on March 21, 2019 (the “Record Date”). The shareholders of record of DowDuPont received one share of Dow Inc. common stock, par value $0.01 per share, for every three shares of DowDuPont common stock, par value $0.01 per share, held as of the Record Date ("Distribution Ratio"). No fractional shares of Dow Inc. common stock were issued. Instead, cash in lieu of any fractional shares was paid to DowDuPont registered shareholders. The number of shares of Dow Inc. common stock issued on April 1, 2019 was 748.8 million shares. Dow Inc. is now an independent, publicly traded company and Dow Inc. common stock is listed on the NYSE under the symbol “DOW.” Dow Inc. common stock began regular-way trading on April 2, 2019, the first day following the distribution. On April 1, 2019, Dow Inc. received a cash contribution of $2,024 million from DowDuPont as part of the internal reorganization and business realignment steps between Dow Inc., TDCC and DowDuPont. Dow Inc. recognized a reduction to "Retained earnings" of $14,846 million in the second quarter of 2019 as a result of the cash contribution, the distribution of AgCo and SpecCo, and other separation related adjustments. TDCC recognized a reduction to "Retained earnings" of $16,025 million in the second quarter of 2019 as a result of the distribution of AgCo and SpecCo. Receipt of ECP As the receipt of ECP was accounted for as a transfer between entities under common control, the consolidated financial statements have been retrospectively adjusted to reflect the receipt of ECP from the closing of the Merger on August 31, 2017. All intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The ECP assets received and liabilities assumed were recorded at DowDuPont's historical cost basis as reflected in the following table: ECP Assets Received and Liabilities Assumed on Aug 31, 2017 Carrying value In millions Cash and cash equivalents $ 1 Accounts and notes receivable - Trade 169 Accounts and notes receivable - Other 32 Inventories 529 Other current assets 6 Investment in nonconsolidated affiliates 116 Net property 817 Goodwill 3,617 Other intangible assets 1,484 Deferred income tax assets 9 Total Assets $ 6,780 Accounts payable - Trade 102 Accounts payable - Other 29 Accrued and other current liabilities 31 Deferred income tax liabilities 683 Pension and other postretirement benefits - noncurrent 6 Other noncurrent obligations 3 Total Liabilities $ 854 Net Assets (impact to "Retained earnings") $ 5,926 Distribution of AgCo and SpecCo Upon distribution, the Company retrospectively adjusted the previously issued consolidated financial statements and presented AgCo and SpecCo as discontinued operations based on the guidance in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 205-20 “Discontinued Operations.” The results of operations of AgCo and SpecCo are presented as discontinued operations in the consolidated statements of income and are summarized in the table that follows: Results of Operations of AgCo and SpecCo Three Months Ended Six Months Ended Jun 30, 2018 Jun 30, 2019 Jun 30, 2018 In millions Net sales $ 3,397 $ 2,953 $ 6,456 Cost of sales 2,123 1,804 3,948 Research and development expenses 193 175 376 Selling, general and administrative expenses 272 262 555 Amortization of intangibles 63 61 127 Restructuring and asset related charges - net 56 78 138 Equity in earnings of nonconsolidated affiliates 41 28 83 Sundry income (expense) - net 1 (18 ) 5 Interest income 3 3 11 Interest expense and amortization of debt discount 12 7 21 Income from discontinued operations before income taxes $ 723 $ 579 $ 1,390 Provision for income taxes 169 134 322 Income from discontinued operations, net of tax $ 554 $ 445 $ 1,068 The carrying amount of major classes of assets and liabilities related to the distribution of AgCo and SpecCo consisted of the following: Carrying Values of AgCo and SpecCo 1 Dec 31, 2018 In millions Accounts and notes receivable - Trade $ 2,768 Accounts and notes receivable - Other 773 Inventories 2,826 Other current assets 151 Investment in nonconsolidated affiliates 612 Other investments 2 Noncurrent receivables 35 Net property 3,014 Goodwill 7,590 Other intangible assets 1,830 Deferred income tax assets 239 Deferred charges and other assets 60 Total assets of discontinued operations $ 19,900 Notes payable 7 Long-term debt due within one year 4 Accounts payable - Trade 1,118 Accounts payable - Other 868 Income taxes payable 234 Accrued and other current liabilities 716 Long-Term Debt 5 Deferred income tax liabilities 568 Pension and other postretirement benefits - noncurrent 306 Other noncurrent obligations 662 Total liabilities of discontinued operations $ 4,488 1. Includes assets and liabilities of consolidated variable interest entities related to discontinued operations. Separation and Distribution, Tax Matters and Other Agreements In connection with the separation, Dow Inc. entered into certain agreements with DuPont and/or Corteva, Inc. ("Corteva"), including the following: Separation and Distribution Agreement, Tax Matters Agreement and Employee Matters Agreement (collectively, the "Agreements"). In addition to establishing the terms of the separation, the Agreements provide a framework for Dow’s interaction with DuPont and Corteva after the separation and also provide for the allocation among Dow, DuPont and Corteva of assets, liabilities and obligations attributable to periods prior to, at and after the completion of the separation. The Agreements also contain certain indemnity and/or cross-indemnity provisions that are intended to set forth each party’s respective rights, responsibilities and obligations for matters subject to indemnification. Except in certain instances, the parties’ indemnification obligations are uncapped. Certain indemnification obligations will be subject to reduction by insurance proceeds or other third-party proceeds of the indemnified party that reduces the amount of the loss. In addition, indemnifiable losses will be subject to, in certain cases, “de minimis” threshold amounts and, in certain cases, deductible amounts. The impacts of indemnifications and other post-separation matters relating to the Agreements were primarily reflected in the consolidated financial statements of Dow Inc. In the second quarter of 2019, the Company recorded pretax charges related to the Agreements of $24 million in "Integration and separation costs" and $52 million in "Sundry income (expense) - net" in the consolidated statements of income of Dow Inc. and related to the Corporate segment. At June 30, 2019, the Company had assets of $167 million included in "Other current assets" and liabilities of $471 million included in "Accrued and other current liabilities" and $158 million included in"Other noncurrent obligations" in the consolidated balance sheets of Dow Inc. related to the Agreements. Any adjustments to these assets and liabilities in subsequent periods will be recorded in Dow Inc.'s results of operations. In addition, the Company deferred approximately $400 million of the cash distribution received from DowDuPont at separation and recorded an associated liability in "Other noncurrent obligations," with an offset to "Retained earnings" in the consolidated balance sheets of Dow Inc. The final resolution of this liability is uncertain and any subsequent adjustments to the carrying value of this liability will be reflected in equity of Dow Inc. In the second quarter of 2019, Dow Inc. made cash payments of $93 million related to the Agreements, recorded in "Cash flows from operating activities - discontinued operations" in the Dow Inc. consolidated statements of cash flows. The Company also received $25 million related to the Agreements, recorded in "Other assets and liabilities, net" within "Cash flows from operating activities - continuing operations" in the Dow Inc. consolidated statements of cash flows. Continuing Involvement In addition, the Company has certain product and service agreements with DuPont and Corteva that were considered intercompany transactions prior to the separation, but are trade transactions subsequent to the separation. These transactions have been retrospectively reclassified as trade transactions in the consolidated financial statements. Based on the Company’s assessment of the specific factors identified in ASC Topic 205, “Presentation of Financial Statements,” the Company concluded that these agreements do not constitute significant continuing involvement in AgCo or SpecCo. Integration and Separation Costs Integration and separation costs, which reflect costs related to post-Merger integration and business separation activities, as well as the ownership restructure of Dow Silicones (through May 31, 2018), were $348 million and $324 million for Dow Inc. and TDCC, respectively, in the second quarter of 2019 , compared with $262 million in the second quarter of 2018 . Integration and separation costs were $800 million and $776 million for Dow Inc. and TDCC, respectively, in the first six months of 2019 compared with $486 million in the first six months of 2018 . Integration and separation costs related to post-Merger integration and business separation activities are expected to decline through the remainder of 2019. |
REVENUE (Notes)
REVENUE (Notes) | 6 Months Ended |
Jun. 30, 2019 | |
Revenue from Contract with Customer [Abstract] | |
Revenue from Contract with Customer [Text Block] | REVENUE Revenue Recognition The majority of Dow's revenue is derived from product sales. In the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 , 98 percent of Dow's revenue related to product sales ( 99 percent for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 ), with the remaining balance primarily related to the Company's insurance operations and licensing of patents and technologies. Product sales consist of sales of Dow's products to manufacturers and distributors and considers order confirmations or purchase orders, which in some cases are governed by master supply agreements, to be contracts with a customer. Dow enters into licensing arrangements in which it licenses certain rights of its patents and technology to customers. Revenue from Dow’s licenses for patents and technology is derived from sales-based royalties and licensing arrangements based on billing schedules established in each contract. Remaining Performance Obligations Remaining performance obligations represent the transaction price allocated to unsatisfied or partially unsatisfied performance obligations. At June 30, 2019 , Dow had unfulfilled performance obligations of $652 million ( $407 million at December 31, 2018) related to the licensing of technology. Dow expects revenue to be recognized for the remaining performance obligations over the next one to six years. The remaining performance obligations are for product sales that have expected durations of one year or less, product sales of materials delivered through a pipeline for which Dow has elected the right to invoice practical expedient, or variable consideration attributable to royalties for licenses of patents and technology. Dow has received advance payments from customers related to long-term supply agreements that are deferred and recognized over the life of the contract, with remaining contract terms that range up to 22 years. Dow will have rights to future consideration for revenue recognized when product is delivered to the customer. These payments are included in "Accrued and other current liabilities" and "Other noncurrent obligations" in Dow's consolidated balance sheets. Disaggregation of Revenue Dow disaggregates its revenue from contracts with customers by segment and business, as the Company believes it best depicts the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of its revenue and cash flows.

Europe, Middle East, Africa and India. Contract Assets and Liabilities Dow receives payments from customers based upon contractual billing schedules. Accounts receivable are recorded when the right to consideration becomes unconditional. Contract assets include amounts related to Dow's contractual right to consideration for completed performance obligations not yet invoiced. Contract liabilities include payments received in advance of performance under the contract and are realized when the associated revenue is recognized under the contract. "Contract liabilities - current" primarily reflects deferred revenue from prepayments from customers for product to be delivered in 12 months or less. "Contract liabilities - noncurrent" includes advance payments that Dow has received from customers related to long-term supply agreements and royalty payments that are deferred and recognized over the life of the contract. The increase in contract liabilities from December 31, 2018 to June 30, 2019 was due to advanced payments from a customer related to long-term product supply agreements. Revenue recognized in the first six months of 2019 from amounts included in contract liabilities at the beginning of the period was approximately $110 million (approximately $105 million in the first six months of 2018). In the first six months of 2019, the amount of contract assets reclassified to receivables as a result of the right to the transaction consideration becoming unconditional was $15 million (insignificant in the first six months of 2018).

Restructuring and Related Activities [Abstract] | |
Restructuring and Related Activities Disclosure [Text Block] | RESTRUCTURING AND ASSET RELATED CHARGES - NET Charges for restructuring programs and other asset related charges, which includes other asset impairments, were $65 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019 ( $40 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018) and $221 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019 ( $127 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018). These charges were recorded in "Restructuring and asset related charges - net" in the consolidated statements of income. Further details on these charges are as follows. Restructuring Plans DowDuPont Cost Synergy Program In September and November 2017, DowDuPont approved post-merger restructuring actions under the DowDuPont Cost Synergy Program (the "Synergy Program") which was designed to integrate and optimize the organization following the Merger and in preparation for the business separations. The following table summarizes the activities related to the Synergy Program, which are reflected on a continuing operations basis. The Company expects actions related to the Synergy Program to be substantially complete by the end of 2019.

The Company recorded pretax restructuring charges of $786 million inception-to-date under the Synergy Program, consisting of severance and related benefit costs of $521 million , asset write-downs and write-offs of $225 million and costs associated with exit and disposal activities of $40 million . Asset Write-downs and Write-offs The restructuring charges related to the write-down and write-off of assets for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, related primarily to miscellaneous asset write-downs and write-offs, including the shutdown of several small manufacturing facilities and the write-off of non-manufacturing assets and certain corporate facilities. Costs Associated with Exit and Disposal Activities The restructuring charges for costs associated with exit and disposal activities for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, included contract cancellation penalties and environmental remediation liabilities. The Company expects to incur additional costs in the future related to its restructuring activities. Future costs are expected to include demolition costs related to closed facilities and restructuring plan implementation costs; these costs will be recognized as incurred. The Company also expects to incur additional employee-related costs, including involuntary termination benefits, related to its other optimization activities. These costs cannot be reasonably estimated at this time. Asset Related Charges The Company recognized an additional pretax impairment charge of $6 million and $18 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 , respectively, related primarily to capital additions made to a biopolymers manufacturing facility in Santa Vitoria, Minas Gerais, Brazil, which was impaired in 2017 (charge of $3 million and $6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018). The impairment charge was included in “Restructuring and asset related charges - net” in the consolidated statements of income and related to the Packaging & Specialty Plastics segment.

Supplementary Information Disclosure [Text Block] | SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION The Company uses "Sundry income (expense) – net" to record a variety of income and expense items such as foreign currency exchange gains and losses, dividends from investments, gains and losses on sales of investments and assets, non-operating pension and other postretirement benefit plan credits or costs, and certain litigation matters. TDCC For the three months ended June 30, 2019 , "Sundry income (expense) - net" was income of $109 million compared with expense of $14 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018 . "Sundry income (expense) – net" increased primarily due to an increase in foreign currency exchange gains and non-operating pension and postretirement benefit plan credits compared with the second quarter of 2018. The second quarter of 2019 also included a $44 million loss on the early extinguishment of debt and a gain of $14 million on post-closing adjustments related to a previous divestiture (both related to the Corporate segment). The second quarter of 2018 included a $20 million loss for a post-closing adjustment related to the Dow Silicones ownership restructure (related to the Performance Materials & Coatings segment). "Sundry income (expense) - net" in the first six months of 2019 was income of $178 million compared with income of $40 million in the first six months of 2018. In addition to the amounts previously discussed, the first six months of 2018 included a $20 million gain related to the Company's sale of its equity interest in MEGlobal (related to the Industrial Intermediates & Infrastructure segment). Dow Inc. For the three months ended June 30, 2019 , "Sundry income (expense) - net" was expense of $1 million compared with expense of $14 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018 . For the six months ended June 30, 2019 , "Sundry income (expense) - net" was income of $68 million compared with income of $40 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018 . In addition to the amounts previously discussed above for TDCC, "Sundry income (expense) - net" for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 , included a $58 million loss on post-closing adjustments related to a previous divestiture and $52 million in charges associated with agreements entered into with DuPont and Corteva as part of the separation and distribution, which provides for cross-indemnities and allocations of obligations and liabilities for periods prior to, at and after completion of the separation (both related to the Corporate segment).

TRANSFERS OF FINANCIAL ASSETS | TRANSFERS OF FINANCIAL ASSETS The Company historically sold trade accounts receivable of select North American entities and qualifying trade accounts receivable of select European entities on a revolving basis to certain multi-seller commercial paper conduit entities ("conduits"). The proceeds received were comprised of cash and interests in specified assets of the conduits (the receivables sold by the Company) that entitled the Company to the residual cash flows of such specified assets in the conduits after the commercial paper was repaid. Neither the conduits nor the investors in those entities had recourse to other assets of the Company in the event of nonpayment by the debtors. In the fourth quarter of 2017, the Company suspended further sales of trade accounts receivable through these facilities and began reducing outstanding balances through collections of trade accounts receivable previously sold to such conduits. In September and October 2018, the North American and European facilities, respectively, were amended and the terms of the agreements changed from off-balance sheet arrangements to secured borrowing arrangements. See Note 12 for additional information on the secured borrowing arrangements.

On April 1, 2019, DowDuPont completed the separation of its materials science business and Dow Inc. became the direct parent company of TDCC. In conjunction with the separation, Dow Inc. is obligated, substantially concurrently with the issuance of any guarantee in respect of outstanding or committed indebtedness under the Company's Five Year Competitive Advance and Revolving Credit Facility Agreement ("Revolving Credit Agreement"), to enter into a supplemental indenture with TDCC and the trustee under TDCC’s existing 2008 base indenture governing certain notes issued by TDCC. Under such supplemental indenture, Dow Inc. will guarantee all outstanding debt securities and all amounts due under such existing base indenture and will become subject to certain covenants and events of default under the existing base indenture. In addition, the Revolving Credit Agreement includes an event of default which would be triggered in the event Dow Inc. incurs or guarantees third party indebtedness for borrowed money in excess of $250 million or engages in any material activity or directly owns any material assets, in each case, subject to certain conditions and exceptions. Dow Inc. may, at its option, cure the event of default by delivering an unconditional and irrevocable guarantee to the administrative agent within thirty days of the event or events giving rise to such event of default.

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Text Block] | COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES Environmental Matters Accruals for environmental matters are recorded when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the liability can be reasonably estimated, based on current law and existing technologies. At June 30, 2019 , Dow had accrued obligations of $796 million for probable environmental remediation and restoration costs, including $156 million for the remediation of Superfund sites. These obligations are included in "Accrued and other current liabilities" and "Other noncurrent obligations" in the consolidated balance sheets. This is management’s current estimate of the costs for remediation and restoration with respect to environmental matters for which Dow has accrued liabilities, although it is reasonably possible that the ultimate cost with respect to these particular matters could range up to approximately two and a half times that amount. Consequently, it is reasonably possible that environmental remediation and restoration costs in excess of amounts accrued could have a material impact on Dow’s results of operations, financial condition and cash flows. It is the opinion of Dow’s management, however, that the possibility is remote that costs in excess of the range disclosed will have a material impact on Dow’s results of operations, financial condition and cash flows. Inherent uncertainties exist in these estimates primarily due to unknown conditions, changing governmental regulations and legal standards regarding liability, and emerging remediation technologies for handling site remediation and restoration. As new or additional information becomes available and/or certain spending trends become known, management will evaluate such information in determination of the current estimate of environmental liability. In the second half of 2019, as a result of the business separations, and change in ownership of certain sites where there are remediation activities, additional costs may be incurred to effectively manage the ongoing activities. In addition, as a result of the potential culmination of long standing negotiations with regulators and/or agencies, additional charges for environmental matters may be recorded. Management believes that it is reasonably possible that the additional charges for environmental matters may be increased up to $400 million as a result of this review. At December 31, 2018 , Dow had accrued obligations of $810 million for probable environmental remediation and restoration costs, including $156 million for the remediation of Superfund sites. Litigation Asbestos-Related Matters of Union Carbide Corporation A summary of Asbestos-Related Matters of Union Carbide Corporation can be found in Note 16 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in TDCC's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 . Introduction Union Carbide is and has been involved in a large number of asbestos-related suits filed primarily in state courts during the past four decades. These suits principally allege personal injury resulting from exposure to asbestos-containing products and frequently seek both actual and punitive damages. The alleged claims primarily relate to products that Union Carbide sold in the past, alleged exposure to asbestos-containing products located on Union Carbide’s premises and Union Carbide’s responsibility for asbestos suits filed against a former Union Carbide subsidiary, Amchem Products, Inc. (“Amchem”). In many cases, plaintiffs are unable to demonstrate that they have suffered any compensable loss as a result of such exposure, or that injuries incurred in fact resulted from exposure to Union Carbide’s products. Union Carbide expects more asbestos-related suits to be filed against Union Carbide and Amchem in the future, and will aggressively defend or reasonably resolve, as appropriate, both pending and future claims. Estimating the Asbestos-Related Liability Since 2003, Union Carbide has engaged Ankura Consulting Group, LLC ("Ankura"), a third party actuarial specialist, to review Union Carbide's historical asbestos-related claim and resolution activity in order to assist Union Carbide's management in estimating the asbestos-related liability. Each year, Ankura has reviewed the claim and resolution activity to determine the appropriateness of updating the most recent Ankura study. Based on the December 2018 Ankura review and Union Carbide's own review of the data, Union Carbide's total asbestos-related liability through the terminal year of 2049, including asbestos-related defense and processing costs, was $1,260 million at December 31, 2018 , and included in “Accrued and other current liabilities” and “Asbestos-related liabilities - noncurrent” in the consolidated balance sheets. Each quarter, Union Carbide reviews claims filed, settled and dismissed, as well as average settlement and resolution costs by disease category. Union Carbide also considers additional quantitative and qualitative factors such as the nature of pending claims, trial experience of Union Carbide and other asbestos defendants, current spending for defense and processing costs, significant appellate rulings and legislative developments, trends in the tort system, and their respective effects on expected future resolution costs. Union Carbide's management considers all these factors in conjunction with the most recent Ankura study and determines whether a change in the estimate is warranted. Based on Union Carbide's review of 2019 activity, it was determined that no adjustment to the accrual was required at June 30, 2019 . Union Carbide’s asbestos-related liability for pending and future claims and defense and processing costs was $1,218 million at June 30, 2019 , and approximately 17 percent of the recorded liability related to pending claims and approximately 83 percent related to future claims. Summary Dow's management believes the amounts recorded by Union Carbide for the asbestos-related liability (including defense and processing costs) reflect reasonable and probable estimates of the liability based upon current, known facts. However, future events, such as the number of new claims to be filed and/or received each year, the average cost of defending and disposing of each such claim, as well as the numerous uncertainties surrounding asbestos litigation in the United States over a significant period of time, could cause the actual costs for Union Carbide to be higher or lower than those projected or those recorded. Any such events could result in an increase or decrease in the recorded liability. Because of the uncertainties described above, Union Carbide cannot estimate the full range of the cost of resolving pending and future asbestos-related claims facing Union Carbide and Amchem. As a result, it is reasonably possible that an additional cost of disposing of Union Carbide's asbestos-related claims, including future defense and processing costs, could have a material impact on Dow's results of operations and cash flows for a particular period and on the consolidated financial position. Dow Silicones Chapter 11 Related Matters A summary of the Dow Silicones Chapter 11 Related Matters can be found in Note 16 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in TDCC's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018. Introduction In 1995, Dow Silicones, then a 50:50 joint venture between the Company and Corning Incorporated ("Corning"), voluntarily filed for protection under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code in order to resolve Dow Silicones’ breast implant liabilities and related matters (the “Chapter 11 Proceeding”). Dow Silicones emerged from the Chapter 11 Proceeding on June 1, 2004 (the “Effective Date”) and is implementing the Joint Plan of Reorganization (the “Plan”). The Plan provides funding for the resolution of breast implant and other product liability litigation covered by the Chapter 11 Proceeding and provides a process for the satisfaction of commercial creditor claims in the Chapter 11 Proceeding. As of June 1, 2016, Dow Silicones is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. Breast Implant and Other Product Liability Claims Under the Plan, a product liability settlement program administered by an independent claims office (the “Settlement Facility”) was created to resolve breast implant and other product liability claims. Product liability claimants rejecting the settlement program in favor of pursuing litigation must bring suit against a litigation facility (the “Litigation Facility”). Dow Silicones has an obligation to fund the Settlement Facility and the Litigation Facility over a 16-year period, commencing at the Effective Date. At June 30, 2019 , Dow Silicones and its insurers have made life-to-date payments of $1,762 million to the Settlement Facility and the Settlement Facility reported an unexpended balance of $88 million . Dow Silicones' liability for breast implant and other product liability claims ("Implant Liability") was $263 million at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 , of which $201 million at June 30, 2019 ( $111 million at December 31, 2018 ) was included in “Accrued and other current liabilities” and $62 million at June 30, 2019 ( $152 million at December 31, 2018 ) was included in "Other noncurrent obligations" in the consolidated balance sheets. Dow Silicones is not aware of circumstances that would change the factors used in estimating the Implant Liability and believes the recorded liability reflects the best estimate of the remaining funding obligations under the Plan; however, the estimate relies upon a number of significant assumptions, including: future claim filing levels in the Settlement Facility will be similar to those in a prior settlement program, which management uses to estimate future claim filing levels for the Settlement Facility; future acceptance rates, disease mix, and payment values will be materially consistent with historical experience; no material negative outcomes in future controversies or disputes over Plan interpretation will occur; and the Plan will not be modified. If actual outcomes related to any of these assumptions prove to be materially different, the future liability to fund the Plan may be materially different than the amount estimated. If Dow Silicones was ultimately required to fund the full liability up to the maximum capped value, the liability would be $2,183 million at June 30, 2019 . Commercial Creditor Issues The Plan provides that each of Dow Silicones' commercial creditors (the “Commercial Creditors”) would receive in cash the sum of (a) an amount equal to the principal amount of their claims and (b) interest on such claims. The actual amount of interest that will ultimately be paid to these Commercial Creditors is uncertain due to pending litigation between Dow Silicones and the Commercial Creditors regarding the appropriate interest rates to be applied to outstanding obligations from the 1995 bankruptcy filing date through the Effective Date, as well as the presence of any recoverable fees, costs and expenses. Upon the Plan becoming effective, Dow Silicones paid approximately $1,500 million to the Commercial Creditors, representing principal and an amount of interest that Dow Silicones considers undisputed. On May 10, 2017, the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan entered a stipulated order resolving pending discovery motions and established a discovery schedule for the Commercial Creditors matter. As a result, Dow Silicones and its third party consultants conducted further analysis of the Commercial Creditors claims and defenses. This analysis indicated the estimated remaining liability to Commercial Creditors to be within a range of $77 million to $260 million . No single amount within the range appeared to be a better estimate than any other amount within the range. Therefore, Dow Silicones recorded the minimum liability within the range. At June 30, 2019 , the liability related to Dow Silicones' potential obligation to its Commercial Creditors in the Chapter 11 Proceeding was $84 million and is included in "Accrued and other current liabilities" in the consolidated balance sheets ( $82 million at December 31, 2018 ). The actual amount of interest that will be paid to these creditors is uncertain and will ultimately be resolved through continued proceedings in the District Court. Indemnifications In connection with the June 1, 2016, ownership restructure of Dow Silicones, the Company is indemnified by Corning for 50 percent of future losses associated with certain pre-closing liabilities, including the Implant Liability and Commercial Creditors matters described above, subject to certain conditions and limits. The maximum amount of indemnified losses which may be recovered are subject to a cap that declines over time. Indemnification assets were insignificant at June 30, 2019 ( zero at December 31, 2018). Summary The amounts recorded by Dow Silicones for the Chapter 11 related matters described above were based on current, known facts, which management believes reflect reasonable and probable estimates of the liability. However, future events could cause the actual costs for Dow Silicones to be higher or lower than those projected or those recorded. Any such events could result in an increase or decrease in the recorded liability. Other Litigation Matters In addition to the specific matters described above, the Company is party to a number of other claims and lawsuits arising out of the normal course of business with respect to product liability, patent infringement, employment matters, governmental tax and regulation disputes, contract and commercial litigation, and other actions. Certain of these actions purport to be class actions and seek damages in very large amounts. All such claims are being contested. The Company has an active risk management program consisting of numerous insurance policies secured from many carriers at various times. These policies may provide coverage that could be utilized to minimize the financial impact, if any, of certain contingencies described above. It is the opinion of the Company’s management that the possibility is remote that the aggregate of all such other claims and lawsuits will have a material adverse impact on the results of operations, financial condition and cash flows of the Company. Gain Contingency - Dow v. Nova Chemicals Corporation Patent Infringement Matter On December 9, 2010, Dow filed suit in the Federal Court in Ontario, Canada ("Federal Court") alleging that Nova Chemicals Corporation ("Nova") was infringing the Company's Canadian polyethylene patent 2,106,705. Nova counterclaimed on the grounds of invalidity and non-infringement. On June 29, 2017, the Federal Court issued a Confidential Supplemental Judgment, concluding that Nova must pay $645 million Canadian dollars (equivalent to $495 million U.S. dollars) to the Company, plus pre- and post-judgment interest, for which the Company received payment of $501 million from Nova on July 6, 2017. Although Nova is appealing portions of the damages judgment, certain portions of it are indisputable and will be owed to the Company regardless of the outcome of any further appeals by Nova. At June 30, 2019 , the Company had $341 million ( $341 million at December 31, 2018 ) included in "Other noncurrent obligations" in the consolidated balance sheets related to the disputed portion of the damages judgment. The Company is confident of its chances of defending the entire judgment on appeal, particularly the trial court's determinations on important factual issues, which will be accorded deferential review on appeal. See Note 16 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in TDCC's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 for additional information. Guarantees The following table provides a summary of the final expiration, maximum future payments and recorded liability reflected in the consolidated balance sheets for guarantees: Guarantees Jun 30, 2019 Dec 31, 2018 In millions Final Expiration Maximum Future Payments Recorded Liability Final Expiration Maximum Future Payments Recorded Liability Guarantees 2023 $ 4,123 $ 11 2023 $ 4,273 $ 22 Guarantees arise during the ordinary course of business from relationships with customers and nonconsolidated affiliates when the Company undertakes an obligation to guarantee the performance of others (via delivery of cash or other assets) if specified triggering events occur. With guarantees, such as commercial or financial contracts, non-performance by the guaranteed party triggers the obligation of the Company to make payments to the beneficiary of the guarantee. The majority of the Company’s guarantees relate to debt of nonconsolidated affiliates, which have expiration dates ranging from less than one year to less than four years. The Company’s current expectation is that future payment or performance related to the non-performance of others is considered remote. The Company has entered into guarantee agreements ("Guarantees") related to project financing for Sadara Chemical Company ("Sadara"), a nonconsolidated affiliate. The total of an Islamic bond and additional project financing (collectively “Total Project Financing”) obtained by Sadara is approximately $12.5 billion . Sadara had $11.2 billion of Total Project Financing outstanding at June 30, 2019 ( $11.7 billion at December 31, 2018 ). The Company's guarantee of the Total Project Financing is in proportion to the Company's 35 percent ownership interest in Sadara, or up to approximately $4.1 billion when the project financing is fully drawn. Sadara successfully completed an extensive operational testing program in December 2018, however, the Guarantees will be released upon the satisfactory fulfillment of certain project completion conditions, which is expected in the second half of 2019, and must occur no later than December 2020. |

Stockholders' Equity Note Disclosure [Text Block] | STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY Common Stock Dow Inc. Dow Inc. was incorporated in 2018 with 100 authorized and issued shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, owned solely by its parent company, DowDuPont.

Also includes amounts attributable to discontinued operations of zero for the three months ended June 30, 2019 ( $23 million for the the three months ended June 30, 2018) and $7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019 ( $28 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018). 2. Relates to the separation from DowDuPont. See Note 3 for additional information. 3. Relates to the pending acquisition of full ownership in a propylene oxide manufacturing joint venture, which is expected to occur in the fourth quarter of 2019. See Note 21 for additional information. As a result of this arrangement, the carrying value of the noncontrolling interest was removed, a liability of $283 million was recognized, and “Additional paid-in capital” was adjusted by $29 million . After adjustment for subsequent dividends of $127 million , paid to the noncontrolling interest holder in the second quarter of 2019, the liability at June 30, 2019 was $156 million and is reflected in “Accrued and other current liabilities” in the consolidated balance sheets. |

Retirement Benefits [Abstract] | |
PENSION PLANS AND OTHER POSTRETIREMENT BENEFITS | PENSION PLANS AND OTHER POSTRETIREMENT BENEFITS As a result of the Company’s separation from DowDuPont, the number of defined benefit pension plans administered by the Company decreased from 45 plans to 35 plans, of which approximately $270 million of net unfunded pension liabilities transferred to DowDuPont. Plans administered by other subsidiaries of DowDuPont that were transferred to the Company were not significant. There were no changes in the number of other postretirement benefit plans administered by the Company as a result of the separation. Existing Company plans that were significantly impacted by the transfer of active plan participants to DowDuPont were remeasured, resulting in curtailment gains and losses and recognition of special termination benefits. A summary of the Company's pension plans and other postretirement benefits can be found in Note 19 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in TDCC’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018. The following table provides the components of the Company's net periodic benefit cost for all significant plans: Net Periodic Benefit Cost for All Significant Plans Three Months Ended Six Months Ended In millions Jun 30, Jun 30, Jun 30, Jun 30, Defined Benefit Pension Plans: Service cost $ 95 $ 132 $ 207 $ 265 Interest cost 227 217 468 435 Expected return on plan assets (421 ) (404 ) (838 ) (810 ) Amortization of prior service credit (5 ) (6 ) (11 ) (12 ) Amortization of net loss 147 170 279 341 Curtailment/special termination benefits 1 (27 ) — (27 ) — Net periodic benefit cost $ 16 $ 109 $ 78 $ 219 Less: discontinued operations — 25 21 50 Net periodic benefit cost - continuing operations $ 16 $ 84 $ 57 $ 169 Other Postretirement Benefits: Service cost $ 2 $ 3 $ 4 $ 6 Interest cost 12 11 26 22 Amortization of net gain (5 ) (6 ) (11 ) (12 ) Curtailment/special termination benefits 1 (3 ) — (3 ) — Net periodic benefit cost $ 6 $ 8 $ 16 $ 16 Less: discontinued operations — 1 — 2 Net periodic benefit cost - continuing operations $ 6 $ 7 $ 16 $ 14 1. The 2019 impact relates to plan curtailments and associated special termination benefits resulting from the reduction in plan participation by employees transferred to DowDuPont. Net periodic benefit cost, other than the service cost component, is included in "Sundry income (expense) - net" in the consolidated statements of income. The Company's funding policy is to contribute to defined benefit pension plans in the United States and a number of other countries when pension laws and/or economics either require or encourage funding. The Company expects to contribute approximately $285 million to its pension plans in 2019, of which $152 million has been contributed through June 30, 2019 . |

Disclosure of Compensation Related Costs, Share-based Payments [Text Block] | STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION A summary of the Company's stock-based compensation plans can be found in Note 20 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in TDCC’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 . Stock Incentive Plan The Company grants stock-based compensation to employees and non-employee directors in the form of stock incentive plans, which include stock options, restricted stock units ("RSUs") (formerly termed deferred stock) and restricted stock. The Company also provides stock-based compensation in the form of performance stock units ("PSUs") (formerly termed performance deferred stock). The Company has historically granted stock-based compensation to employees and non-employee directors under The Dow Chemical Company Amended and Restated 2012 Stock Incentive Plan (the "2012 Plan"). In connection with the Merger, on August 31, 2017 ("Conversion Date") all outstanding TDCC stock options and RSU awards were converted into stock options and RSU awards with respect to DowDuPont common stock. The stock options and RSU awards had the same terms and conditions under the applicable plans and award agreements prior to the Merger. All outstanding and nonvested PSU awards were converted into RSU awards with respect to DowDuPont common stock at the greater of the applicable performance target or the actual performance as of the effective time of the Merger. Changes in the fair value of liability instruments are recognized as compensation expense each quarter. TDCC and Historical DuPont did not merge their stock-based compensation plans as a result of the Merger. TDCC and Historical DuPont stock-based compensation plans were assumed by DowDuPont and continued in place with the ability to grant and issue DowDuPont common stock until separation. There was minimal grant activity in the first quarter of 2019. In connection with the separation on April 1, 2019, outstanding stock options, RSU and PSU awards were converted to Dow Inc. denominated awards under the “Employer Method,” or DowDuPont denominated awards under the “Shareholder Method,” and adjusted to maintain the intrinsic value of those awards before and after the date of the separation. In connection with the Corteva separation transaction on June 3, 2019, the outstanding DowDuPont denominated stock options, RSU and PSU awards were converted to Corteva and DuPont denominated awards and adjusted to maintain the intrinsic value of those awards before and after the date of the Corteva separation. The awards have the same terms and conditions under the applicable plans and award agreements prior to the separation transactions. The conversions of stock awards resulted in no incremental compensation expense. Approximately 5,000 employees were impacted by the conversion on April 1, 2019 in connection with the separation. Approximately 4,000 employees were impacted by the conversion on June 3, 2019 in connection with the Corteva separation transaction. On April 1, 2019 ("Original Effective Date"), in connection with the separation, the Company adopted the 2019 Stock Incentive Plan (the "2019 Plan"). Under the 2019 Plan, the Company may grant stock options, RSUs, PSUs, restricted stock, stock appreciation rights and stock units to employees and non-employee directors until the tenth anniversary of the Original Effective Date, subject to an aggregate limit and annual individual limits. The terms of the grants are fixed at the grant date. In the second quarter of 2019, Dow Inc. granted the following stock-based compensation awards to employees and non-employee directors: • 1.6 million stock options with a weighted-average exercise price of $54.89 and a weighted-average fair value of $7.99 per share; • 1.8 million RSUs with a weighted-average fair value of $54.85 per share; and • 1.2 million PSUs with a weighted-average fair value of $57.58 per share. |

Counterparty and cash collateral amounts represent the estimated net settlement amount when applying netting and set-off rights included in master netting arrangements between the Company and its counterparties and the payable or receivable for cash collateral held or placed with the same counterparty. Assets and liabilities related to forward contracts, interest rate swaps, currency swaps, options and other conditional or exchange contracts executed with the same counterparty under a master netting arrangement are netted. Collateral accounts are netted with corresponding assets or liabilities, when applicable. The Company posted cash collateral of $36 million at June 30, 2019 ( $26 million at December 31, 2018 ). There was no counterparty cash collateral posted with the Company at June 30, 2019 ( $34 million at December 31, 2018 ). Net Foreign Investment Hedges For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as net foreign investment hedges, the effective portion of the gain or loss on the derivative is included in “Cumulative Translation Adjustments” in AOCL. The Company had outstanding foreign-currency denominated debt designated as a hedge of net foreign investment of $186 million at June 30, 2019 ( $182 million at December 31, 2018 ). For the six months ended June 30, 2019 , the results of hedges of the Company’s net investment in foreign operations included in “Cumulative Translation Adjustments” in AOCL was a net loss of $101 million after tax (net gain of $53 million after tax for the six months ended June 30, 2018 ). The Company recognized after-tax gains of $66 million related to excluded components of net foreign investment hedges included in “Cumulative Translation Adjustments” in AOCL for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and after-tax gains of $152 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019 . For the three months ended June 30, 2019 , gains of $25 million were amortized to “Sundry income (expense) - net” in the consolidated statements of income. For the six months ended June 30, 2019 , gains of $50 million were amortized to “Sundry income (expense) - net” in the consolidated statements of income. Cash Flow Hedges For derivatives that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedging instruments, the gain or loss on the derivative is recorded in AOCL; it is reclassified to income in the same period or periods that the hedged transaction affects income. The unrealized amounts in AOCL fluctuate based on changes in the fair value of open contracts at the end of each reporting period. The Company anticipates volatility in AOCL and net income from its cash flow hedges. The amount of volatility varies with the level of derivative activities and market conditions during any period. For the six months ended June 30, 2019 , the Company terminated certain interest rate contracts and realized net losses in AOCL of $113 million after tax. The net loss from open and realized interest rate contract hedges included in AOCL at June 30, 2019 was $213 million after tax (net gain of $23 million after tax at December 31, 2018 ). Fair Value Hedges For interest rate instruments that are designated and qualify as fair value hedges, the gain or loss on the derivative as well as the offsetting loss or gain on the hedge item attributable to the hedged risk are recognized in current period income and reflected as “Interest expense and amortization of debt discount” in the consolidated statements of income, except for amounts excluded from the assessment of effectiveness that are recognized in earnings through an amortization approach. During the second quarter of 2019, the Company entered into interest rate contracts designated as fair value hedges of underlying fixed rate debt obligations with maturity dates extending through 2048. The fair value adjustment resulting from these contracts was a net gain on the derivative of $16 million , with a net loss of $4 million after tax for excluded components recognized in AOCL. Income Statement Effect of Derivative Instruments Foreign currency derivatives not designated as hedges are used to offset foreign exchange gains or losses resulting from the underlying exposures of foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities. The amounts charged on a pretax basis related to foreign currency derivatives not designated as a hedge, which were included in “Sundry income (expense) - net” in the consolidated statements of income, were a gain of $38 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019 (gain of $82 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018 ) and a gain of $6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019 (gain of $65 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018 ). The income statement effects of other derivatives were immaterial. Reclassification from AOCL The net after-tax amounts to be reclassified from AOCL to income within the next 12 months are a $1 million gain for interest rate contracts, a $49 million loss for commodity contracts, a $6 million gain for foreign currency contracts and a $60 million gain for excluded components. |

Segment Reporting [Abstract] | |
Segments and Geographic Regions [Text Block] | SEGMENTS AND GEOGRAPHIC REGIONS Dow combines one of the broadest technology sets in the industry with asset integration, focused innovation and global scale to achieve profitable growth and become the most innovative, customer centric, inclusive and sustainable materials science company. Dow’s portfolio of performance materials, industrial intermediates and plastics businesses delivers a broad range of differentiated science-based products and solutions for our customers in high-growth segments, such as packaging, infrastructure and consumer care. Effective with the Merger, TDCC's business activities were components of DowDuPont's business operations and were reported as a single operating segment. Following the separation from DowDuPont, the Company changed the manner in which its business activities were managed. The Company's portfolio now includes six global businesses which are organized into the following operating segments: Performance Materials & Coatings, Industrial Intermediates & Infrastructure and Packaging & Specialty Plastics. Corporate contains the reconciliation between the totals for the operating segments and the Company's totals. The Company did not aggregate any operating segments when determining its reportable segments. Following the separation from DowDuPont, the Company changed its practice of transferring ethylene to its downstream derivative businesses at cost to transferring ethylene at market prices. The Company also changed certain of its Corporate segment allocation practices including costs previously assigned to AgCo and SpecCo, which are now allocated to the operating segments. These changes have been consistently applied to all periods presented. Dow reported geographic information for the following regions: U.S. & Canada, Asia Pacific, Latin America and EMEAI. As a result of the separation from DowDuPont, the Company changed the geographic alignment for the country of India to be reflected in EMEAI (previously reported in Asia Pacific). Dow’s measure of profit/loss for segment reporting purposes is pro forma Operating EBIT (for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and the three and six months ended June 30, 2018) and Operating EBIT (for the three months ended June 30, 2019) as this is the manner in which the Company's chief operating decision maker ("CODM") assesses performance and allocates resources. The Company defines pro forma Operating EBIT as earnings (i.e., "Income from continuing operations before income taxes") before interest, plus pro forma adjustments, excluding the impact of significant items. The Company defines Operating EBIT as earnings (i.e., "Income from continuing operations before income taxes") before interest, excluding the impact of significant items. Pro forma Operating EBIT and Operating EBIT by segment include all operating items relating to the businesses; items that principally apply to Dow as a whole are assigned to Corporate. These measures have been reflected retrospectively for all periods presented, and reconciliations of these measures are provided at the end of this footnote. The Company also presents pro forma net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 in this footnote as it is included in management's measure of segment performance and is regularly reviewed by the CODM. Pro forma net sales includes the impact of various manufacturing, supply and service related agreements entered into with DuPont and Corteva in connection with the separation which provide for different pricing than the historical intercompany and intracompany pricing practices of TDCC and Historical DuPont. Corporate Profile Dow conducts its worldwide operations through global businesses which are reflected in the following reportable segments: Performance Materials & Coatings Performance Materials & Coatings includes industry-leading franchises that deliver a wide array of solutions into consumer and infrastructure end-markets.

CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEM_2
CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Policies) | Jan. 01, 2019 | Jan. 01, 2018 |
Accounting Policies [Abstract] | ||
Schedule of New Accounting Pronouncements and Changes in Accounting Principles [Table Text Block] | Adoption of Accounting Standards 2019 In the first quarter of 2019, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2016-02, "Leases (Topic 842)," and associated ASUs (collectively, "Topic 842"). See Notes 2 and 14 for additional information. The Company added a significant accounting policy for leases as a result of the adoption of Topic 842: Leases The Company determines whether a contract contains a lease at contract inception. A contract contains a lease if there is an identified asset and the Company has the right to control the asset. Operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets represent the Company's right to use an underlying asset for the lease term, and lease liabilities represent the Company's obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease ROU assets and lease liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. The Company uses the incremental borrowing rate (“IBR”) in determining the present value of lease payments, unless the implicit rate is readily determinable. If lease terms include options to extend or terminate the lease, the ROU asset and lease liability are measured based on the reasonably certain decision. Leases with a term of 12 months or less at the commencement date are not recognized on the balance sheet and are expensed as incurred. The Company has lease agreements with lease and non-lease components, which are accounted for as a single lease component for all classes of leased assets for which the Company is the lessee. Additionally, for certain equipment leases, the portfolio approach is applied to account for the operating lease ROU assets and lease liabilities. In the consolidated statements of income, lease expense for operating lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. For finance leases, interest expense is recognized on the lease liability and the ROU asset is amortized over the lease term. Some leasing arrangements require variable payments that are dependent upon usage or output, or may vary for other reasons, such as insurance or tax payments. Variable lease payments are recognized as incurred and are not presented as part of the ROU asset or lease liability. Additionally, the Company's consolidated balance sheet reflects the impact of the adoption of ASU 2014-09, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)" and the associated ASUs (collectively, "Topic 606") at January 1, 2019, by certain nonconsolidated affiliates of the Company, which were subsequently distributed as part of the separation. The impact to the Company's investment was a reduction to "Investment in nonconsolidated affiliates" of $71 million and an increase to "Other noncurrent obligations" of $168 million , as well as an increase to "Deferred income tax assets" of $56 million and a reduction to "Retained earnings" of $183 million in the consolidated balance sheets at January 1, 2019. | 2018 In the first quarter of 2018, the Company adopted Topic 606, ASU 2016-01, "Financial Instruments - Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities" and ASU 2016-16, "Income Taxes (Topic 740): Intra-Entity Transfers of Assets Other Than Inventory." The adoption of these ASUs resulted in a net decrease of $68 million to retained earnings and a decrease of $20 million to accumulated other comprehensive loss ("AOCL") in the consolidated statements of equity at January 1, 2018. In the second quarter of 2018, the Company early adopted ASU 2018-02, "Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income ("ASU 2018-02")." The adoption of this standard resulted in a $1,057 million increase to retained earnings due to the reclassification from AOCL in the consolidated statements of equity at April 1, 2018. |

Restricted stock units (formerly termed deferred stock) are considered participating securities due to the Company's practice of paying dividend equivalents on unvested shares. 2. Share amounts for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, were based on 2,246.3 million DowDuPont common shares outstanding as of the Record Date for the April 1, 2019 distribution, less 4.6 million Employee Stock Ownership Plan ("ESOP") shares that had not been released and were not considered outstanding, adjusted for the Distribution Ratio.
