Date: 5-Mar-2007 Sources: (People's Daily)
China ended a 16-month-long anti-dumping investigation on butanol imported from Russia, the United States, the European Union, South Africa, Malaysia, and Japan on Friday, said the Ministry of Commerce.
The ministry ruled that the case was an example of dumping but, as no substantial harm was caused to the domestic butanol industry, no measures would be imposed.
Butanol is an organic chemical product mainly used to make plasticizers and organic solvents.
