We introduced two point island models with island disaggregation. In the first one, particles can detach from islands with an odd number of particles and from those with two particles. In the second model, particles can detach from all islands with more than two particles. The scaling exponents are analytically obtained and verified with Monte Carlo simulations. Specially, the power-law scalings of the island and monomer densities are analyzed. Comparison with other models indicates that the models introduced here present new scaling behaviors.
