US Pauses Probe into Cheap Chinese Anode Materials
Published Date: 7/22/2025
Notice
Summary
The U.S. says China is selling active anode material in the U.S. for less than it should, which might hurt American businesses. They’re taking more time to make a final call and are keeping some temporary rules in place to protect the market. This affects companies dealing with these materials from April to September 2024 and could mean extra costs or changes soon.
Analyzed Economic Effects
2 provisions identified: 0 benefits, 2 costs, 0 mixed.
Preliminary Finding of Dumping
The Department of Commerce preliminarily found that active anode material from the People’s Republic of China was sold in the United States at less than fair value for the period April 1, 2024 through September 30, 2024. Interested parties are invited to comment on this preliminary determination.
Postponed Final Decision; Provisional Measures Extended
Commerce is postponing its final determination and extending provisional measures related to active anode material from China, and is keeping temporary protections in place. That extension and postponement mean companies dealing with these materials may face continued temporary rules or adjustments while the case is completed.
