40The adjective ‘malleable’, according to its usual meaning, is a material which has the property to flatten and expand under a hammer or through the action of a mill using rollers or sheets. In other words, from recital 54 of Council Regulation (EC) No 500/2009 of 11 June 2009 amending Regulation (EC) No 1212/2005 imposing a definitive anti-dumping duty on imports of certain castings originating in the People’s Republic of China (OJ 2009 L 151, p. 6), ‘malleability’ refers, in material science, ‘to a material’s ability to deform under compressive stress which is often characterised by the material’s ability to form a thin sheet by hammering or rolling’.
