The kanji 脱脱 is a phono-semantic compound (形声文字, keisei moji). The left side is the radical of "meat, flesh" (月 ⺼ niku/tsuki), which often relates to the body. The right side is a phonetic component 兌 (dat, tai) which indicates the sound. The original meaning of 脱脱 probably related to removing something from the body, and later broadened to mean "to escape" or "to remove" in general.
