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 sol gel alumina-based ceramic 

abrasive grains from China, provided for 

in subheading 2818.10.20 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 alleged to be 

subsidized by the government of 

China.2 3

Commission’s rules, upon notice from 

the U.S. Department of Commerce 

(‘‘Commerce’’) of affirmative

Background 

On November 25, 2024, Saint-Gobain 

Ceramics & Plastics, Inc., Malvern, 

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 

and LTFV imports of sol gel aluminabased ceramic abrasive grains from 

China. Accordingly, effective November 

25, 2024, the Commission instituted 

countervailing duty investigation No. 

701–TA–750 and antidumping duty 

investigation No. 731–TA–1728 

(Preliminary). 

Notice of the institution of the 

Commission’s investigations and of a

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 December 2, 2024 

(89 FR 95235).4 The Commission 

conducted its conference on December 

16, 2024. All persons who requested the 

opportunity were permitted to 

participate. 

The Commission made these 

determinations pursuant to §§ 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 January 29, 2025. The 

views of the Commission are contained 

in USITC Publication 5581 (February
