A device and method for handling fluids released during a procedure employs a floormat with opposing surfaces. The floormat is formed, at least in part, of compressible and resilient material. An absorbent sheet is attached to one of the opposing surfaces of the floormat. At least part of the absorbent sheet is stacked to extend peripherally beyond the floormat. The floormat and absorbent sheet are placed where a user is expected to stand during the procedure, and are stacked with at least part of the absorbent sheet extending beyond the floormat. A user stands atop the floormat and absorbent sheet during at least part of the procedure. During the procedure, fluids that fall onto the absorbent sheet are absorbed into it. The floormat and absorbent sheet are vacated and discarded before starting another procedure.

A multilayer containment and protection tube for conduits, cables and the like, includes an inner layer made of polymeric material, which is electrically at least antistatic, with a smooth internal surface, which forms a duct for supporting conduits or cables. The tube further includes one or more intermediate layers of electrically at least antistatic reinforcement, an outer layer made of electrically at least antistatic polymeric material, and a covering and finishing layer, which is electrically at least antistatic.

A method of and system for adhesive bonding by a) providing a polymerizable adhesive composition on a surface of an element to be bonded to form an assembly; b) irradiating the assembly with radiation at a first wavelength capable of vulcanization of bonds in the polymerizable adhesive composition by activation of sulfur-containing compound with at least one selected from x-ray, e-beam, visible, or infrared light to thereby generate ultraviolet light in the polymerizable adhesive composition; and c) adhesively joining two or more components together by way of the polymerizable adhesive composition, and a curable polymer for use therein.

Where, in the formula (1), each of R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 respectively independently represents a hydrocarbon group having 1 to 6 carbon atoms, the pluralities of R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 may be the same or different, and each of “m” and “n” respectively independently represents an integer of 0 to 4, and where, in the formula (2), each of R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 respectively independently represents a hydrocarbon group having 1 to 6 carbon atoms, the pluralities of R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 may be the same or different, and each of “m” and “n” respectively independently represents an integer of 0 to 5.

Provided is a structural member for electronic devices which uses a material that is flexible and has excellent restoration properties after extension and stress relaxation properties. The structural member for electronic devices has the following properties A and B: (Property A) In a case where predetermined deformation is applied, stress that applies the deformation is relaxed (reduced) with time: and (Property B) In a case where the stress that applies deformation is 0, the deformation rarely remains while a resin composition is recovered. That is, when stress is 0, residual strain substantially becomes 0 (specifically 3% or lower).

Embodiments provide a pressure-sensitive adhesive film having (α) a poly(meth)acrylimide-based resin film layer and (γ) a pressure-sensitive adhesive agent layer in that order from the surface layer side and having a total light transmittance of 80% or higher.
