capacity as an officer and/or director of Cabot Corporation (the "Company"),
Forms 3, 4, and 5 in accordance with Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934 and the rules thereunder;

(2)	  do and perform any and all acts for and on behalf of the undersigned which
may be necessary or desirable to complete and execute any such Form 3, 4, or 5
(including executing and filing a Form I.D.), complete and execute any amendment
or amendments thereto, and timely file such form with the United States
Securities and Exchange Commission and any stock exchange or similar authority;
and

(3)	  take any other action of any type whatsoever in connection with the
foregoing which, in the opinion of such attorney-in-fact, may be of benefit to,
in the best interest of, or legally required by, the undersigned, it being
understood that the documents executed by such attorney-in-fact on behalf of the
undersigned pursuant to this Power of Attorney shall be in such form and shall

	The undersigned hereby grants to each such attorney-in-fact full power and
