2. Pressure-sensitive adhesive - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure-sensitive_adhesive

   Pressure-sensitive adhesive (PSA, self-adhesive, self-stick adhesive) is a type of nonreactive adhesive which forms a bond when pressure is applied to bond the adhesive with a surface. No solvent, water, or heat is needed to activate the adhesive.

3. Baseboard - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baseboard

   It is usually available in white or a flexible version in several colors and is usually glued to the wall. [2] Vinyl baseboard is glued with adhesive and can be difficult to remove or to replace. It has a long lifespan, which can mean lower maintenance. [3] Wooden baseboard can be available in untreated, lacquered or prepainted versions.

4. Self-adhesive plastic sheet - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-adhesive_plastic_sheet

   Self-adhesive plastic sheet, known in the United Kingdom as sticky-backed plastic, is wide plastic sheet or film with an adhesive layer on one side, used as a surface coating for decorative purposes. It is typically smooth and shiny, but can also come in textured varieties, in which case it can sometimes be used as a cheap alternative to veneer .

5. Molding (decorative) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molding_(decorative)

   A "plain" moulding has right-angled upper and lower edges. A "sprung" moulding has upper and lower edges that bevel towards its rear, allowing mounting between two non-parallel planes (such as a wall and a ceiling), with an open space behind. Mouldings may be decorated with paterae as long, uninterrupted elements may be boring for eyes.

6. Synthetic setae - Wikipedia

   The two front feet of a tokay gecko can withstand 20.1 N of force parallel to the surface with 227 mm 2 of pad area, [4] a force as much as 40 times the gecko's weight. . Scientists have been investigating the secret of this extraordinary adhesion ever since the 19th century, and at least seven possible mechanisms for gecko adhesion have been discussed over the past 17

7. Foamcore - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foamcore

   Self-adhesive foam boards, intended for art and document mounting are also available, though these can be very tricky to use properly; this is because the glue sets very fast. It is considered cheaper to buy plain foam board and use re-positionable spray mount adhesive. Specialty constructions have been developed for engineering uses. [2] [3]
