The video demonstrates the detachment process of a single shape memory polymer adhesive fibril under the R2G condition and in the rubber phase. In the stiff R2G condition, the fibril exhibits an overall detachment behavior, whereas in the compliant rubber phase, it undergoes a gradual detachment via crack propagation, displaying distinctly different detachment mechanisms.
