The U.S. International Trade Commission recently stated that imported activated anode materials from China have not caused material injury to the relevant U.S. industry, and therefore the Commerce Department will not issue anti-dumping or countervailing duty orders on such products. This ruling contrasts with the Commerce Department's previous affirmative final determination on anti-dumping.

On March 12th local time, the U.S. International Trade Commission (ITC) issued a statement saying that imported active anode materials from China do not pose a substantial barrier to the establishment of related U.S. industries. The statement said that based on the commission’s negative determination, the U.S. Department of Commerce will not impose anti-dumping or countervailing duties on such Chinese imports.

Previously, on February 11th, the U.S. Department of Commerce announced a final affirmative determination of anti-dumping duties on imported active anode materials from China, with dumping margins of 93.50% for Chinese producers/exporters with separate rates and 102.72% for Chinese-wide rates. It also made a final affirmative determination of countervailing duties, with subsidy rates ranging from 66.82% to 66.86%.
