1. A method for processing an amorphous poly alpha olefin comprising the steps of:

  • cooling a molten mass of the amorphous poly alpha olefin to an extrusion temperature;

    extruding the cooled amorphous poly alpha olefin through an orifice of an extrusion head;

    reciprocating a cutter across the orifice to cut the extruded amorphous poly alpha olefin into a succession of pellets;

    substantially covering the pellets with dust particles inert to the amorphous poly alpha olefin as the pellets pass through the orifice;

    removing the excess dust particles from the pellets; and

    cooling the pellets after removal of the dust particles therefrom.
