Fully recyclable multifunctional adhesive with high durability, transparency, flame retardancy, and harsh-environment resistance.

The article presents a study which showed an aromatic siloxane adhesive that exploits stimuli-responsive reversible assembly driven by π π stacking, allowing for elimination and activation of interfacial interactions via infiltration-volatilization of ethanol. Topics discussed include preparation and characterization, strong and durable adhesion performance, and mechanism for reversible strong adhesion.
