🚀 On Wednesday, January 7, 2026, the Ministry of Commerce of the Chinese mainland announced it has opened an anti-dumping investigation into dichlorosilane (DCS) imports from Japan. DCS is a key chemical in semiconductor manufacturing, used in both logic and memory chips.
Domestic producers submitted evidence showing that from 2022 to 2024, prices for Japanese-sourced DCS fell by 31%, while import volumes climbed. They argue these steep price cuts have hurt the Chinese mainland’s domestic industry.
The Ministry stressed the probe will follow legal procedures, fully safeguard the rights of all interested parties, and deliver an objective, impartial ruling based on the findings.🔍
Stay tuned as we watch how this move could ripple through the global chip supply chain! 🌐✨
