Lithium Hexafluorophosphate From China; Mexichem Withdraws Petition, Halting Commerce Investigation
Summary
On April 14, 2026, Mexichem Fluor Inc. dba Orbia Fluor & Energy Materials withdrew its petitions in antidumping and countervailing duty investigations concerning lithium hexafluorophosphate from China. Because Commerce had not yet initiated formal investigations under the applicable statutory provisions, the USITC discontinued its preliminary investigations (Nos. 701-TA-790 and 731-TA-1778). This petition withdrawal terminates the trade remedy proceedings at both agencies without any duties being imposed.

What changed
Mexichem Fluor Inc. dba Orbia Fluor & Energy Materials withdrew its petitions in the antidumping and countervailing duty investigations concerning lithium hexafluorophosphate from China on April 14, 2026.
