Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure


On January 31, 2006, Cytec Industries Inc. issued a press release announcing a
refinement to its segment reporting structure implemented in the fourth quarter
of 2005 based on the creation of the Cytec Specialty Chemicals unit. We are
still reporting Cytec Specialty Chemicals as two reporting units, however, this
refinement better reflects the customer perspective, how we run the business and
manage the assets. Included in this press release is an unaudited restatement of
consolidated net sales and earnings from operations by each business segment to
reflect the reorganization covering the quarterly and full year results for year
ended December 31, 2004 and the quarterly and nine month results for the nine
months ended September 30, 2005. A copy of the press release is furnished as
Exhibit 99.1 hereto.
