731–TA–1555–1556 (Final)] 

Granular Polytetrafluoroethylene 

(PTFE) Resin From India and Russia; 

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 granular polytetrafluoroethylene 

(‘‘PTFE’’) resin from India and Russia, 

provided for in subheadings 3904.61.00 

and 3904.69.50 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 India and Russia.2 3

Background 

The Commission instituted these 

investigations effective January 27, 

2021, following receipt of petitions filed 

with the Commission and Commerce by 

Daikin America, Inc., Orangeburg, New 

York. The final phase of the 

investigations was scheduled by the 

Commission following notification of 

preliminary determinations by 

Commerce that imports of granular 

PTFE resin from India and Russia were 

subsidized within the meaning of 

section 703(b) of the Act (19 U.S.C. 

1671b(b)) and 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 

September 15, 2021 (86 FR 51378). In 

light of the restrictions on access to the 

Commission building due to the 

COVID–19 pandemic, the Commission 

conducted its hearing through written 

testimony and videoconference held on 

January 19, 2022. All persons who 

requested the opportunity were 

permitted to participate. 

The Commission made these 

determinations pursuant to §§ 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 March 8, 

2022. The views of the Commission are 

contained in USITC Publication 5285 

(March 2022), entitled Granular

Nos. 701–TA–663–664 and 731–TA–
