Abstract
The present invention relates to hot-melt adhesive compositions based on copolymers of ethylene, vinyl acetate and vinylalkoxysilane units, which are crosslinkable by moisture, wherein the hot-melt adhesive is substantially anhydrous. More particularly, it relates to the storage stability of the hot-melt adhesive compositions including at least one crosslinking catalyst. The invention also relates to a process for the manufacture of the hot-melt adhesive composition comprising drying the hot-melt adhesive under vacuum at a temperature lower than 180.degree. C. and purging with a dry gas at a temperature lower than 180.degree. C.
