the outlet opening for the composition is triangular.

8. The application nozzle in accordance with claim 1 , wherein

the application nozzle has at least one edge or rib.

9. The application nozzle in accordance with claim 8 , wherein

the edge or rib is constituted and formed such that the application nozzle has an increased bending stiffness or torsional stiffness in comparison with an application nozzle having a substantially round cross-section.

10. The application nozzle in accordance with claim 1 , wherein

the application nozzle has one of a substantially polygonal cross-section and a polygonal cross-section.

11. The application nozzle in accordance with claim 1 , wherein

the application nozzle has a cross-section or a shape which has at least one concave section.

12. The application nozzle in accordance with claim 11 , wherein

the application nozzle has at least one flattened side surface.

13. The application nozzle in accordance with claim 12 , wherein

the application nozzle has two flattened side surfaces.

14. An application device, comprising at least one application nozzle in accordance claim 1 .

15. The application device in accordance with claim 14 , wherein

the application device is operated by a rechargeable battery.

16. The application nozzle in accordance with claim 1 , wherein

the plane is a plane of symmetry.

17. The application nozzle in accordance with claim 1 , wherein

the contact region is at least partly slanted with respect to the longitudinal direction.

18. The application nozzle in accordance with claim 1 , wherein

the outlet region comprises only one outlet opening.

19. An application system comprising:

an application nozzle for an application system for gel-like or pasty compositions, the application nozzle having an inlet region and an outlet region for the composition and having a plane extending in a longitudinal direction of the application nozzle,

the outlet region comprising

a contact region for the application nozzle on a substrate standing perpendicular to the plane, margins of the contact region lying in a first plane and margins of the outlet opening lying in a second plane, the first and second planes being angled relative to one another, and

an outlet opening for the composition, the outlet opening being opened adjacent the contact region and having a width substantially the same as a width of the contact region, and

the nozzle including an upper crown line and a lower crown line opposite the upper crown line, in a side view perpendicular to the plane, the upper crown line of the application nozzle being inclined in relation to the longitudinal direction at a first angle, and the lower crown line of the application nozzle opposite the upper crown line being inclined in relation to the longitudinal direction at a second angle, the first angle being smaller than the second angle, and

the contact region and the outlet opening being delineated from on another structurally as two separate sections that are kinked with respect to one another, and the contact region being at least partly slanted.
