Abstract: A hotmelt adhesive based on a number of components is provided. One of the components is at least one polyamide based on dimerized fatty acid, said polyamide being present in an amount by weight of the composition of at least 50%. Another component is from at least one ethylene copolymer selected from the group consisting of ethylene/vinyl acetate, ethylene/acrylate, said acrylate being derived from an alcohol containing 1 to 18 carbon atoms, and ethylene/methacrylate, said methacrylate being derived from an alcohol containing 1 to 18 carbon atoms, said ethylene copolymer being present in an amount by weight of the composition of 5 to 20%. Another component is at least one copolymer of styrene with one or more members selected from the group consisting of ethylene, isoprene and butylene, said copolymer of styrene being present in an amount by weight of the composition of 2 to 10%.

Abstract: A plug-type connector for electrical coaxial cables includes a hot-melt-type adhesive for filling in the interior space between an outer bushing and centrally located contact bushing, with the contact bushing being configured for receiving an inner conductor of a coaxial cable. The hot-melt-type adhesive seals, fills, and insulates the interior portions of the plug-type connector surrounding the centrally located contact bushing and inner conductor of the associated coaxial cable. The hot-melt-type adhesive consists a polyamide based on dimerized fatty acids, aliphatic amines, and modifiers, and a copolyethylene and additives.
