About this reusable silicone "nanogel" adhesive tape on Amazon... https://www.amazon.com/s?k=nano+gel+tape&tag=pfamazon01-20
[1] I'm wondering if the adhesive property is due to the surface structure, as in "nano" bumps or projections a la geckos' feet. Or maybe it's just a material property rather than the surface structure, something to do with its place in the electrostatic series?
[2] But if it's the latter, wouldn't it be limited in terms of sticking to materials from different ends of the series?
[3] If it's all about electrostatic activity, would this tape have any special advantage if used as the belt in an electrostatic machine?
