I'm no chemist, but does glue work by electrostatic?

  Electrostatic would be an adjective here. What they are replacing is the adhesion.

  Not in this sense I don't think, this is a case where turning off the power to the device causes the 'sticking' to stop. Glues are chemically (and/or mechanically) bound to surfaces, and you can't 'turn them off' (though you may be able to chemically alter the glue bond, e.g. with a solvent).

    I meant inter-molecular electrostatic forces that make glue work.
