I don't think it's specifically a silicone or cyanoacrylate or whatever. It's a solvent polymer based adhesive that's a propietary formula of the company Goop. I think there's a phone number on the website you can call for more information. There's a dozen different types (and I believe that Shoe Goo is also the same product line - may be the original glue before they realized that it'll glue pretty much anything but styrofoam), but from what I've researched, there's zero difference between products other than that two, Marine and Sportsmans Goop, have added UV resistance. I usually buy Plumber's Goop... because it's cheaper than the other types Home Depot had. I think E6000 is also an equivalent type of glue, but I'm not 100% certain of that. I've used it to glue chromed metal bushings to chrome sink pipes for prop replicas and I couldn't break the things apart after we were done with them. However, I have had it pop off mechanically on very smooth acrylic but only with very rough handling. I would rough up whatever you're gluing just to be on the safe side.
