Product Safety and Consumer Protection [PDF]

open access: yesThe Modern Law Review, 1995
Whether it is appropriate to use the criminal law to protect consumers from unsafe products has long been the subject of debate. It could be argued that the criminal laws which prohibit the sale of unsafe products are examples of regulatory offences and that such crimes are 'not criminal in any real sense.'2 Such offences usually do not require proof ...

Manufacturer Liability for Harms Caused by Consumers to Others [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Should the manufacturer of a product be held legally responsible when a consumer, while using the product, harms someone else? We show that if consumers have deep pockets, then manufacturer liability is not desirable.

Interaction between Molten Al‐Killed Mn–B Steel and Carbon‐Bonded MgO Refractories Based on Recyclates

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
High‐temperature interactions between low‐sulfur Al‐killed Mn–B steel and MgO–C refractories (0 and 50 wt% recyclates) are studied via finger immersion tests (1600 °C). Surface‐active elements influence infiltration. MgO/CaS layer forms, along with spinel and calcium silicate.
