INTERNATIONAL TRADE COMMISSION
[Investigation Nos. 701-TA-759 and 731-TA-1740-1741 (Preliminary)]
Multifunctional Acrylate and Methacrylate Monomers and Oligomers
From South Korea and Taiwan
Determinations
On the basis of the record \1\ developed in the subject
investigations, the United States International Trade Commission
(``Commission'') determines, pursuant to the Tariff Act of 1930 (``the
Act''), that there is a reasonable indication that an industry in the
United States is materially injured by reason of imports of
multifunctional acrylate and methacrylate monomers and oligomers
(``MAMMOs'') from South Korea and Taiwan, provided for in subheadings
2916.12.5050, 2916.14.2050, 3824.99.2900, 3907.29.0000 and 3907.30.0000
of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States, that are
alleged to be sold in the United States at less than fair value
(``LTFV'') and imports of the subject merchandise from Taiwan that are
alleged to be subsidized by the government of Taiwan.\2\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\1\ The record is defined in Sec. 207.2(f) of the Commission's
Rules of Practice and Procedure (19 CFR 207.2(f)).
\2\ 90 FR 17032 and 17044, April 23, 2025.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Commencement of Final Phase Investigations
Pursuant to section 207.18 of the Commission's rules, the
Commission also gives notice of the commencement of the final phase of
its investigations. The Commission will issue a final phase notice of
scheduling, which will be published in the Federal Register as provided
in Sec. 207.21 of the Commission's rules, upon notice from the U.S.
Department of Commerce (``Commerce'') of affirmative preliminary
determinations in the investigations under Sec. Sec. 703(b) or 733(b)
of the Act, or, if the preliminary determinations are negative, upon
notice of affirmative final determinations in those investigations
under Sec. Sec. 705(a) or 735(a) of the Act. Parties that filed
entries of appearance in the preliminary phase of the investigations
need not enter a separate appearance for the final phase of the
investigations. Any other party may file an entry of appearance for the
final phase of the investigations after publication of the final phase
notice of scheduling. Industrial users, and, if the merchandise under
investigation is sold at the retail level, representative consumer
organizations have the right to appear as parties in Commission
antidumping and countervailing duty investigations. The Secretary will
prepare a public service list containing the names and addresses of all
persons, or their representatives, who are parties to the
investigations. As provided in section 207.20 of the Commission's
rules, the Director of the Office of Investigations will circulate
draft questionnaires for the final phase of the investigations to
parties to the investigations, placing copies on the Commission's
Electronic Document Information System (EDIS, <a href="https://edis.usitc.gov">https://edis.usitc.gov</a>),
for comment.

Background
On March 27, 2025, Arkema, Inc., King of Prussia, Pennsylvania
filed petitions with the Commission and Commerce, alleging that an
industry in the United States is materially injured or threatened with
material injury by reason of subsidized imports of MAMMOs from Taiwan
and LTFV imports of MAMMOs from South Korea and Taiwan. Accordingly,
effective March 27, 2025, the Commission instituted countervailing duty
investigation No. 701-TA-759 and antidumping duty investigation Nos.
731-TA-1740-1741 (Preliminary).
Notice of the institution of the Commission's investigations and of
a public conference to be held in connection therewith was given by
posting copies of the notice in the Office of the Secretary, U.S.
International Trade Commission, Washington, DC, and by publishing the
notice in the Federal Register of April 2, 2025 (90 FR 14475). The
Commission conducted its conference on April 17, 2025. All persons who
requested the opportunity were permitted to participate.
The Commission made these determinations pursuant to Sec. Sec.
703(a) and 733(a) of the Act (19 U.S.C. 1671b(a) and 1673b(a)). It
completed and filed its determinations in these investigations on May
12, 2025. The views of the Commission are contained in USITC
Publication 5625 (May 2025), entitled Multifunctional Acrylate and
Methacrylate Monomers and Oligomers from South Korea and Taiwan:
Investigation Nos. 701-TA-759 and 731-TA-1740-1741 (Preliminary).
By order of the Commission.
Issued: May 12, 2025.
Lisa Barton,
Secretary to the Commission.
