INTERNATIONAL TRADE COMMISSION
[Investigation Nos. 701-TA-716-719 and 731-TA-1683-1687 (Final)]
Epoxy Resins From China, India, South Korea, Taiwan, and Thailand
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 an industry in the United States is materially injured by
reason of imports of epoxy resins from South Korea, Taiwan, and
Thailand, provided for in subheading 3907.30.00 of the Harmonized
Tariff Schedule of the United States, that have been found by the U.S.
Department of Commerce (``Commerce'') to be sold in the United States
at less than fair value (``LTFV'') and to be subsidized by the
governments of South Korea and Taiwan.\2\ The Commission further
determines that imports of epoxy resins from China and India found by
Commerce to be sold in the United States at LTFV and to be subsidized
by the governments of China and India \3\ are negligible and terminates
the antidumping and countervailing duty investigations concerning China
and India.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\1\ The record is defined in Sec. 207.2(f) of the Commission's
Rules of Practice and Procedure (19 CFR 207.2(f)).

Background
The Commission instituted these investigations effective April 3,
2024, following receipt of petitions filed with the Commission and
Commerce by the U.S. Epoxy Resin Producers Ad Hoc Coalition which is
comprised of Olin Corporation, Clayton, Missouri and Westlake
Corporation, Houston, Texas. The final phase of the investigations was
scheduled by the Commission following notification of preliminary
determinations by Commerce that imports of epoxy resins from China,
India, and Taiwan were subsidized within the meaning of section 703(b)
of the Act (19 U.S.C. 1671b(b)) and that such products from China,
India, South Korea, Taiwan, and Thailand were sold at LTFV within the
meaning of 733(b) of the Act (19 U.S.C. 1673b(b)). Notice of the
scheduling of the final phase of the Commission's investigations and of
a public hearing 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 on November 22, 2024 (89 FR 92719), as
revised on December 11, 2024 (89 FR 99904). The Commission conducted
its hearing on April 3, 2025. All persons who requested the opportunity
were permitted to participate.
The Commission made these determinations pursuant to Sec. Sec.
705(b) and 735(b) of the Act (19 U.S.C. 1671d(b) and 19 U.S.C.
1673d(b)). It completed and filed its determinations in these
investigations on May 19, 2025. The views of the Commission are
contained in USITC Publication 5619 (May 2025), entitled Epoxy Resins
from China, India, South Korea, Taiwan, and Thailand: Investigation
Nos. 701-TA-716-719 and 731-TA-1683-1687 (Final).
By order of the Commission.
Issued: May 19, 2025.
Lisa Barton,
Secretary to the Commission.
