(3rd LD) Trump signs proclamation imposing 15 pct tariff on polysilicon derivative products

U.S. President Donald Trump has signed a proclamation imposing a 15 percent tariff on polysilicon derivative products, in an effort to protect America's polysilicon manufacturing industry. This action, which will take effect on December 4, also includes the imposition of minimum import prices for polysilicon and its derivatives, with the aim of creating a level playing field for American producers.

The White House emphasized that this measure is part of a series of trade and tariff actions intended to ensure domestic polysilicon manufacturing is supported and protected from overseas dumping and offshore threats.
