               THE SAVINGS PROGRAM FOR EMPLOYEES OF UNION CARBIDE
               CORPORATION AND PARTICIPATING SUBSIDIARY COMPANIES

                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Investments are reported at market value, based upon quoted market prices plus 
accrued income thereon, except for investments in United States Savings Bonds, 
which are carried at current redemption value, loans to participants, which 
are carried at face value, certain fixed income investments which are carried 
at contract value and Union Carbide Corporation Convertible Preferred Stock, 
which is valued at fair value.  Fair value of Union Carbide Corporation 
Convertible Preferred Stock is the greater of the market value of Union 
Carbide Corporation Common Stock and the established floor price of $8.981.  
Fixed Income Fund investments consist of investment contracts with banks and 
insurance companies, government, corporate and international securities and a 
short-term investment fund of the trustee (see Note 8).  Unrealized 
appreciation or depreciation of investments is recognized currently in the 
financial statements.

Participants' accounts are credited with participant contributions, 
contributions from Union Carbide Corporation ("the corporation", "UCC") and an 
allocation of earnings from the Savings Program for Employees of Union Carbide 
Corporation and Participating Subsidiary Companies ("the Program") and charged 
with an allocation of administrative expenses.  The allocation of earnings is 
based upon a participant's interest in a respective investment fund.  The 
allocation of administrative expenses is based upon participants' account 
balances.

On June 30, 1992, the corporation completed the spin-off of its industrial 
gases business, Praxair, Inc. ("Praxair").  Under the terms of the spin-off, 
UCC distributed to its holders of common stock, including participants in the 
Program, one share of Praxair Common Stock and an associated Praxair Common 
Stock purchase right for each share of UCC Common Stock.  The spin-off 
distribution created the investment fund, Praxair Common Stock.  As of June 
30, 1992, the Praxair Common Stock investment fund was closed to new 
participants and existing participants are unable to increase their investment 
in the fund.  The investment fund balances of Praxair employees in the Program 
at June 30, 1992 were transferred to the newly established Savings Program for 
Employees of Praxair, Inc. (see Note 5).

The cost of UCC Common Stock and Praxair Common Stock sold is the respective 
employee's average cost.  The cost of other security investments sold or 
redeemed is the actual cost of the specific securities.  Purchases and sales 
of investments are recorded on the trade date.  The financial statements have 
been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting.

In accordance with the provisions of Statement of Position 94-4, "Reporting of 
Investment Contracts Held by Health and Welfare Benefit Plans and Defined-
Contribution Pension Plans", insurance contracts are carried at contract value 
in the accompanying financial statements.

                    NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (Continued)

Note 2 - Description of the Program

Participants may elect to have the corporation pay from 1% to 17 1/2% (subject 
to the maximum allowed by the Internal Revenue Code for the 401(k) part of the 
Program, which in 1994 was $9,240) of the employee's compensation to the 
Program instead of paying that amount to the employee.  Effective January 1, 
1993, the minimum participation percentage was lowered from 2 1/2% to 1%.  

The corporation contributes, for the account of each employee who chooses to 
participate in the Program, 50% of the amount contributed by the employee, up 
to 7 1/2% of the employee's compensation ("basic deduction").  Effective 
January 1, 1995, the corporation contribution was increased from 50% to 75%.  
Employer contributions are made to a participant's individual account in 
shares of the corporation's convertible preferred stock that are contributed 
from the Employee Stock Ownership Plan (see Note 6).

On March 10, 1994, UCC announced a special stock grant of 40 shares of ESOP 
Stock to certain UCC employees.  The ESOP Stock grant was credited to eligible 
employees' Savings Program 401(k) accounts as of March 31, 1994.

On June 30, 1993, the General Savings Fund was terminated.  All money in the 
Fund, including deferred balances from prior plan periods, was transferred to 
the Fixed Income Fund, unless specifically requested.  Withdrawals from the 
other investment programs normally are made at retirement or other termination 
of employment and may be deferred under the terms of the Program.  Other 
features are described in the Program's Summary Plan Description.

Effective January 1, 1995 the Program changed its name to the Savings and 
Investment Program for Employees of Union Carbide Corporation and 
Participating Subsidiary Companies to reflect its expanding role in employees' 
retirement, estate and financial planning.


Note 3 - Investment Programs

Participants may invest their basic deduction and a supplemental deduction (an 
additional 1/2% to 10% of the employee's compensation) in 1/2 percentage point 
increments in any or all of: Common Stock of Union Carbide Corporation, United 
States Savings Bonds, the Fixed Income Fund, the Fidelity Equity-Income Fund, 
the Fidelity U.S. Equity Index Portfolio, the Fidelity Magellan Fund, the 
Fidelity Contrafund, the Fidelity Growth Company Fund, or the Discounted 
Company Stock Fund.  However, a participant may not invest a supplemental 
deposit (a cash deposit, made on an after-tax basis, ineligible for a 
corporation contribution) in the Discounted Company Stock Fund.  The General 
Savings Fund, available through June 30, 1993, was invested by the Trustee in 
a commingled trust fund which invested in bonds and other securities (except 
common and preferred stocks).  As of January 1, 1991, the General Savings Fund 
was closed to new participants and existing participants were unable to 
increase the percentage of compensation contributed to the fund.  As of 
June 30, 1993, the General Savings Fund ceased being a part of the Program.

Note 3 - Investment Programs (Continued)

Contributions by the corporation are made to the ESOP Stock Fund.  The 
Fidelity Contrafund and the Fidelity Growth Company Fund were made available 
to participants on April 19, 1993.  

Participants are limited to selling the Praxair Common Stock they received in 
the 1992 spin-off distribution (see Note 1) and are prohibited from purchasing 
Praxair Common Stock through the Program.  Dividends earned on Praxair Common 
Stock are reinvested in the Fixed Income Fund.

At December 31, 1994, there were 10,107 employees participating in the Program 
(10,025 at December 31, 1993 and 10,598 at December 31, 1992). The sum of 
participation by investment program is greater than the total number of 
Program participants because participation is allowed in more than one fund.

*  During 1993, Union Carbide Corporation sold the OrganoSilicon business 
   ("OSi").  In May, 1994, the investment fund balances of certain OSi 
   employees in the Program were transferred to the newly established Savings 
   Program for Employees of OSi Specialties, Inc.


Note 6 - Employee Stock Ownership Plan

The Employee Stock Ownership Plan ("ESOP") is an integral part of the Program.  
In November 1990, the trust established for the ESOP purchased 15.1 million 
shares of a new series of convertible preferred stock ("ESOP Stock") from the 
corporation with proceeds from a $325 million loan from Union Carbide 
Chemicals and Plastics Company Inc.  This loan was subsequently assigned to 
the corporation.  The corporation's contributions, plus dividends on the 
shares held by the ESOP, are used to meet interest and principal payments on 
the 15-year 10% loan.  As loan payments are made, shares of the ESOP Stock are 
allocated to eligible participants.

During the second quarter of 1992, the corporation repurchased 7.5 million 
shares of unallocated ESOP Stock from the ESOP's trustee for $26.875 per share 
or $202 million.  This was done to preserve the expected life of the ESOP, 
which had fewer participating employees as a result of the spin-off of Praxair 
(see Note 1).  Also in connection with the spin-off, approximately one million 
shares of the ESOP Stock held by individuals who became employees of Praxair 
were redeemed for UCC Common Stock.

                    NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (Continued)


Note 6 - Employee Stock Ownership Plan (Continued)

The terms of the ESOP provided that the ESOP conversion price, liquidation 
price, dividend and number of shares of ESOP Stock were adjusted upon the 
distribution of Praxair stock to shareholders so that the interests of the 
ESOP shareholders were not diluted.  As of June 30, 1992, the spin-off date, 
the conversion price, liquidation price and annual preferred dividend of the 
ESOP Stock were adjusted from $21.50, $21.50 and $1.90, respectively, to 
$8.981, $8.981 and $0.794, respectively.  The ESOP Stock is convertible into 
the corporation's common stock at a ratio of one-to-one and has a preference 
in liquidation and each share has one voting right.  The adjusted ESOP Stock 
annual dividend rate of $0.794 per share yields 8.93% based on the adjusted 
liquidation price.  Dividends on allocated shares are credited quarterly to 
participants' accounts in the form of additional shares of ESOP Stock.


Note 7 - Expenses

Transfer taxes and other costs and expenses, if any, associated with the sale 
and transfer of UCC Common Stock for a participant's account, are deducted 
from the proceeds or charged to the account.  Fees of the trustee and 
investment managers are paid by the Program.  For the year ended December 31, 
1994, the Program paid certain administration costs and recordkeeping expenses 
of the Program.  The corporation paid those expenses not borne by the Program.  
For the years ended December 31, 1993 and 1992, the corporation paid all the 
administration costs and recordkeeping expenses of the Program.


Note 8 - Fixed Income Fund

During 1993, the Program expanded the Fixed Income Fund to include two bond 
portfolios actively managed by Pacific Investment Management Company and 
Jennison Associates Capital Corporation.  The portfolios consist of 
government, corporate and international investment grade securities.  Pacific 
Mutual Life Insurance Company and The Prudential Insurance Company of America 
were contracted to provide, in most instances, liquidity guarantees ("wrapper 
insurance") of these two bond portfolios in the event that participant book 
value withdrawals exceed 5% of the market value of the portfolios at the 
beginning of the calendar quarter.

The average yield ranged from (2.12%) to 10.33% and 5.52% to 10.33% for the 
periods ending December 31, 1994 and 1993, respectively.  The crediting 
interest rate, the fixed rate of return for the contracts, ranged from 5.19% 
to 10.33% and 5.52% to 10.33% as of December 31, 1994 and 1993, respectively.

The crediting interest rate for the contracts with banks and insurance 
companies is determined at inception of the contracts and does not fluctuate 
over their life.  The crediting interest rate for the investments managed by 
investment firms under wrapper insurance contracts is reset quarterly and is 
based on such factors as the individual bond portfolio's book value, duration, 
market value and current yield.  The contract with The Prudential Insurance 
Company of America has established a minimum crediting interest rate of 2%.

Note 9 - Federal Income Taxes

The Internal Revenue Service has determined and informed the corporation by a 
determination letter dated May 30, 1995 that the Program is qualified within 
the meaning of Section 401(a) and accordingly the trust is exempt from Federal 
Income Tax under Section 501(a) of the Internal Revenue Code.

Participant elective deferrals are subject to the maximum allowed by the 
Internal Revenue Code for the 401(k) part of the Program, which in 1994 was 
$9,240.

Employees are not subject to income tax on their salary reduction 
contributions, corporation payments or other accumulations in their accounts 
until a distribution is made from the Program.  Employee after-tax 
contributions are generally not subject to income tax upon distribution from 
the Program.  An employee may withdraw an amount equal to his/her after-tax 
contributions made prior to 1987 without incurring any income tax.  However, 
in the case of employee after-tax contributions made after 1986 an employee 
may exclude from income only the portion of the distribution that bears the 
same ratio to the total distribution as the employee's after-tax contributions 
bears to the total value of the employee's account.  For employees making 
deferred contributions to the Program in accordance with Internal Revenue 
Service Code Section 401(k), distributions are generally taxed as ordinary 
income subject to special tax treatment afforded certain distributions that 
qualify as lump sum distributions under the Internal Revenue Code.

                 CORPORATION AND PARTICIPATING SUBSIDIARY COMPANIES

                    NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (Continued)



Note 11 - Merger of Corporation

On April 27, 1994, the shareholders of UCC approved the merger of UCC into its 
wholly owned subsidiary, Union Carbide Chemicals and Plastics Company Inc. 
("UCC&P") effective as of May 1, 1994 and the renaming of UCC&P as Union 
Carbide Corporation.  The merger required post-merger UCC to file 
Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 to the Registration Statement on Form S-8 for 
the Savings Program for Employees of Union Carbide Corporation and 
Participating Subsidiary Companies with the Securities and Exchange 
Commission.  The post-effective amendment allows post-merger UCC to adopt as 
its own the Form S-8 Registration Statement previously filed by pre-merger 
UCC.


Supplemental Schedules

Information on the supplemental schedules, provided to the Program by its 
Trustees, Chemical Bank and State Street Bank, was filed under Form SE, in 
paper, under General Instruction E of Form 11-K.

These supplemental schedules are not a required part of the basic financial 
statements of the Program, but are supplementary information required by the 
Department of Labor's Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under 
the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974.

                           Independent Auditors' Report


To the Program Administrators of the Savings Program for
Employees of Union Carbide Corporation and
Participating Subsidiary Companies:

We have audited the accompanying statements of financial condition of the 
Savings Program for Employees of Union Carbide Corporation and Participating 
Subsidiary Companies ("the Program") as of December 31, 1994 and 1993, and the 
related statements of income and changes in program equity for each of the 
years in the three-year period ended December 31, 1994.  These financial 
statements and financial schedules are the responsibility of the Program's 
management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial 
statements and financial schedules based on our audits.  

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing 
standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to 
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of 
material misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence 
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit 
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant 
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial 
statement presentation.  We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis 
for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in 
all material respects, the financial position of the Program as of December 
31, 1994 and 1993, and the results of its operations for each of the years in 
the three-year period ended December 31, 1994, in conformity  with generally 
accepted accounting principles.

Our 1994 audit was made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic 
financial statements taken as a whole.  The 1994 supplemental schedules of the 
Program are presented for the purpose of additional analysis and are not a 
required part of the basic financial statements, but are supplementary 
information required by the Department of Labor's Rules and Regulations for 
Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 
1974.  The 1994 supplemental schedules have been subjected to the auditing 
procedures applied in the audits of the basic financial statements and, in our 
opinion, are fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic 
financial statements taken as a whole.
