We have developed soft, peelable organogels froni 40% hydrolyzed poly(vinyl acetate) (40PVAc) and benzene-1,4-diboronic acid (BDBA). The organic liquids gelated include dimethyl sulfoxide, dimethylformamide, tetrahydrofuran, 2-ethoxyethanol, and methanol. The Theology, of these soft material-s-can be tuned by altering the concentration of the polymer and/or crosslinker Insights into the mechanisms leading to gelation-were obtained from NMR experiments, fluorescence measurements, and studies-comparing properties of materials made from BDBA and phenylboronic acid, a molecule incapable of thrilling covalent crosslinks between the polymer,chains. These organogels can be easily peeled off a surface, leaving no residue detectable by UV Vis spectroscopy. They are demonstrated to be effective at softening and removing deteriorated, coatings from water-sensitive works of,art and delicate surfaces. They haye the, needed characteristics to clean topographically coippleY surfaces: good,contact with the surface, easy removal, and little to no residue after removal. A 2-ethcayethanol organogel was-usedi to, remove oxidized varnish from a 16th century reliquary decorated with painted gold leaf, and an ethanol gel wasised:to remove solvent-resistant-coatings from 16th and 18th century oil paintings.
