An application device for a viscous adhesive comprising a base body having a first inlet for a viscous adhesive; and a nozzle body which is rotatable about an axis with respect to the base body and which surrounds a portion of the base body radially on the outside with respect to the axis, wherein, via the interaction of a first dynamic seal with a separating agent chamber, in which a separating agent is stored, the introduction of humidity into the adhesive before it exits the nozzle opening is effectively prevented.
