A hot melt adhesive stick is a solid cylindrical form of thermoplastic adhesive that softens and becomes sticky when heated, typically used in hot melt glue guns. Composed of polymers (such as EVA, polyolefin, or polyurethane), resins, waxes, and additives, it melts at moderate temperatures (usually between 120–200°C) to form a viscous liquid that bonds surfaces quickly upon cooling. This adhesive is versatile for bonding various materials like paper, wood, plastic, fabric, and metal, and is widely used in crafting, packaging, woodworking, and industrial assembly due to its fast-drying properties, strong initial adhesion, and ease of use.
