Zusammenfassung:Hot melt adhesive masses are provided with a tackless surface by a process w hich comprises the steps of: a) extruding the hot melt adhesive through an appropriate die orifice; b) spraying the surface of the extruded adhesive with a molten film forming low molecul ar weight polymer or formulated polymeric material, the material being selected so that it will not appreciably detract from the proper ties of the adhesive composition when remelted therewith; c) heating the surface of the coated adhesive at a temperature and for a period of time sufficient to remelt the film forming polymer so as to form a continuous coa ting thereof yet insufficient to appreciably melt the ad hesive; and d) cooling the thus coated adhesive mass to a temperature suitable for h andling.
