China has imposed temporary anti-dumping measures on phenol products imported
from Japan, South Korea, the US and China's Taiwan Province.  
  
The Ministry of Commerce took the action after determining that these phenol
imports have caused "substantial damage" to the domestic industry.

  China took formal anti-dumping measures against imports of caprolactam
produced in Japan, Belgium, Germany, the Netherlands and Russia by imposing
anti-dumping duties on the product.  
  

China took formal anti-dumping measures on Friday against imports of
caprolactam, a white crystalline cyclic amide used in the production of
nylon, produced in Japan, Belgium, Germany, the Netherlands and Russia by
imposing anti-dumping duties on the
product, the Ministry of Commerce announced.

In response to an appeal from its domestic industry, China launched an
anti-dumping investigation on Dec. 7, 2001 and decided to take temporary
measures on Jun. 7, 2003.

The investigators concluded that dumping had taken place and that the imports
had done substantial damage to the domestic industry.

The Ministry of Commerce considered that there was a direct causal
relationship between the dumping and the damage, according to the final
findings based on China's anti-dumping regulations.

The Ministry of Commerce determined that importers of caprolactam will pay
anti-dumping taxes to Chinese customs for a period of five years. The
anti-dumping tax rate ranges from 5 to 28 percent, according to the ministry.
