China has ended its anti-dumping duties on styrene-butadiene-rubber imports from Russia, Japan and South Korea, effective Monday, September 8, the Ministry of Commerce said over the weekend. In 2009, China extended its 4-38 percent anti-dumping duties on SBR imported from the countries by five years. The tax expired Monday, and the ministry has been reviewing whether to extend it. The ministry said the domestic industry urged it not to continue imposing the anti-dumping duty and, therefore, it decided not to continue it.
