Hot Melt Adhesives are thermoplastic adhesives, which are in a solid state at ambient room temperature, but become a liquid when heat is applied, then set to bond when cool.
Generally, they consist of polymer resins, tackyfing resins, plasticizers, antioxidants, fillers and waxes etc., and are used in a multitude of applications including but not limited to, labeling of bottles, cans, and boxes; carton closure; bookbinding; various woodworking and assembly procedures, and pressure sensitive labels.
