4 月，面对国内新能源产业的断链危机，美方最终签署了对中国石墨、稀土等关键材料的关税豁免令，将此前一度飙至 145% 的税率压回原 状。 但短短 3 个月风云突变。 7 月 17 日，美国商务部初步裁定对中国进口的石墨征收 93.5% 的反倾销税，理由是这些材料存在不公平补贴。 在现有税率的基础上叠加后，实际关税将达到 160% 。 目前，美国海关已开始要求相关进口商按此税率缴纳现金保证金，意味着短期内中国相关产品进入美国市场的成本将大幅攀升。 此次裁定源于 2024 年 12 月美国本土石墨生产商联盟的申诉，该联盟包括 Anovion Technologies 、 Syrah Technologies 等企业，指控 中国企业以低于公平价值的价格在美国市场销售产品。 值得注意的是，这并非美国首次针对该产品采取行动 —— 今年 5 月 20 日，美国商务部已启动平行的反补贴调查，初步对多数中国生产商征 收 6.55% 的反补贴税，其中湖州凯金新能源、上海绍盛针织汗衫两家企业 还 分别被征收 712.03% 和 721.03% 的高额税率。 中国掌控着全球 70% 以上的石墨供应， 2024 年仅对美出口就达 1 ...
