China will maintain anti-dumping and anti-subsidy tariffs on US n-Propanol imports for another five years. The commerce ministry decided that lifting the measures would likely cause ongoing damage to the domestic industry.

China will maintain anti-dumping and anti-subsidy tariffs on n-propanol imports from the United States for five additional years beginning Friday. The extension protects domestic producers of the chemical, which is vital for lithium battery electrolytes. Removing the duties would likely cause injury to the domestic industry to re-emerge, according to the commerce ministry.
