Acrylic pressure-sensitive adhesive (“PSA”) compositions crosslinked with a small-molecule crosslinker containing a single, thermally reversible moiety represented by the structure (I) (Formula I)). wherein each R1 is independently —H or —CH3, each X is independently C2-C6 alkyl, and each R2 is independently a C1-C6 alkyl group or an aromatic group. Under high temperature conditions the crosslinks may be broken, thus allowing for good coating and dispensing of the PSA. Upon cooling, the crosslinks reform to create a gelled PSA network without need of additional post-processing curing steps.
