The invention is a reactive hot melt composition which has excellent adhesion and curing properties, and can be formulated into free-flowing pellets or beads, by using an ethylene-acrylic acid copolymer, and athylene-methacrylic acid copolymer, and/or an ethylene-acrylic acid methacrylic acid terpolymer as a component of the composition along with free radical crosslinking initiators. The incorporation of a foaming agent enables the production of compositions which are useful in space-filling applications, (i.e., as so-called "anti-flutter" compositions).
