Abstract
Disclosed is an adhesive formulation that, when stimulated by a defeatable stimulation, reduces an adhesive bonding force of the adhesive formulation and defeats the adhesive formulation. The adhesive formulation having (i) programmable linkages made from Diels-Alder adducts and (ii) a concentration of diene traps. The Diels-Alder adducts may be furan-maleimide, and the diene traps may be (i) latent alkenes and (ii) selected from functional groups that will create irreversible reations with furan. The adhesive formulation may be capable of being applied as a coating, and the adhesive formulation may be capable of being extruded. The adhesive formulation may have a bonding temperature between 75 and 120° C. And the defeatable stimulation could, for example, be a temperature above 130° C. The adhesive formulation also may contain several types of programmable linkages and diene traps.
