Sol Gel Alumina-Based Ceramic Abrasive Grains from China Injure U.S. Industry, Says USITC
The U.S. International Trade Commission (Commission or USITC) today determined that a U.S. industry is materially injured by reason of sol gel alumina-based ceramic abrasive grains from China that the U.S. Department of Commerce (Commerce) has determined are sold in the United States at less than fair value and subsidized by the government of China.
Chair Amy Karpel and Commissioners David S. Johanson and Jason E. Kearns voted in the affirmative.[1]
As a result of the Commission’s affirmative determinations, Commerce will issue an antidumping duty order and a countervailing duty order on imports of this product from China.
The Commission’s public report, Sol Gel Alumina-Based Ceramic Abrasive Grains from China (Inv. Nos. 701-TA-750 and 731-TA-1728 (Final), USITC Publication 5669, September 2025), will contain the views of the Commission and information developed during the investigations.
The report will be available by October 17, 2025; when available, it may be accessed on the USITC website.
Status of proceedings, links to relevant documents, and additional information for these investigations can be found at the Commission’s Investigations Database System (IDS).
