First Reserve Corp. and SK Capital Partners have agreed to acquire specialty chemicals company TPC Group Inc. (Nasdaq: TPCG). The deal is valued at approximately $850 million (including debt), or $40 per share in cash (20% premium to closing price on July 24, the last day before published reports of a possible buyout).
