China's Ministry of Commerce (MOC) decided Tuesday to review anti-dumping measures it imposed on solar-grade polysilicon imports from the Republic of Korea (ROK).
The move was in response to domestic producers' application for a reexamination of the duties, claiming ROK firms have increased dumping activities on the Chinese market, according to a statement on the ministry's website.
The review will cover the period from Jan. 1, 2015 to Dec. 31, 2015. China slapped five-year duties on polysilicon imports from the United States and ROK in 2014. The rates for imports from the ROK are set between 2.4 percent to 48.7 percent. Solar-grade polysilicon is an important material for making solar cells, a sector fraught with trade disputes.
