【Core Benefits】
Long-Lasting Sustained Cooling · Low Irritation: Slowly hydrolyzed by enzymes on the oral mucosa or skin, delivering a gentle, long-lasting cooling sensation (lasting several hours) — far superior to free menthol. Gentle on mucous membranes and the eye area, with no strong burning sensation. At low concentrations (5–10 mg/kg), it provides a distinctly progressive cooling effect.
Colorless & Odorless: Virtually no intrinsic aroma, so it does not interfere with your product’s fragrance system. Perfectly suited for high-end unscented or lightly scented product development, preserving the original flavor and fragrance profile without alteration.
Excellent Compatibility: Highly compatible with surfactants, preservatives, humectants, fragrances, and other raw materials. Does not affect product stability, reducing formulation development costs.
