EU may renew acid tariff

Write: Ishana [2011-05-20]
The European Union threatened to renew tariffs against China on a chemical used in industries from pharmaceuticals and construction to food and drinks.
The EU said it would examine whether to reimpose the duties as high as 34.9 percent on tartaric acid from China for another five years. Tartaric acid is the main acid in grapes and can also be made synthetically from petrochemicals.
