Default Non-conductive-removeable-glue ?

Some further slightly interesting links:

Electrolyte:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrolyte

Glue:

(Doesn't contain much about non-conductive glue)

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adhesive

Maybe glueing electronics together is a bad idea and simply indicates
non-sturdy/bad design (?!)

One more link: printing electronics:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Printed_electronics

One possibly solution for the future could be a "double board" where
components are stuck together at the bottom and the top for extra sturdyness
?!?

Ofcourse this would make inspecting any damage impossible until everything
soldered loose... hmmm

Going to try and forward this to chemistry newsgroup.
(Failed, no such newsgroup, so just gonna be a regular follow-up

Electrolysis comes to mind...

I learned that once in a chemistry class on school.

http://www.thefreedictionary.com/electrolysis

From that dictionary:

"
1. Chemical change, especially decomposition, produced in an electrolyte
by
an electric current.
"

The thruth could be that no glue is safe from electrolysis ?

Hello,

I have a question for you:

Is there a glue that can be used to glue together electronics without the
glue becoming conductive after a while ?

(Some glue's appear to become conductive after exposure to heat, moisture
in air, and electricity (?))

Also it would be a big plus if the glue can be removed with water and
soap or any other means...

Bye,
Skybuck.
