The invention relates to a one-part, foamable hot melt gasket sealant. The foamable hot melt adhesive comprises greater than about 35 wt % of a rubber block copolymer, a tackifier and less than about 5 wt % of a wax. The foamable hot melt adhesive can be applied onto a space in between two mating surfaces without expensive foam-in-place equipment. The foamable hot melt gasket sealant is particularly suitable in automotive applications, electrical component and technical lighting sectors. |
