Recyclable Adhesive (IMAGE)
Caption
A schematic illustration of the adhesion system by Jarach et al. On the top left, there is a representation of two slides being adhered by the new adhesive. The adhesion process involves irradiation, which can be performed using various visible-light wavelengths. Subsequently, the adhesive can be removed and recycled, as depicted in the bottom right, through microwave irradiation. The now-recycled adhesive can be reused to adhere new parts.
