Menthol, also known as menthol alcohol or menthol ice, is a white crystalline organic compound extracted from the leaves and stems of mint. It is the main component of mint and mint essential oil. It has a distinctive mint aroma and initially feels hot before becoming cool. This unique "cooling sensation" stems from its ability to activate the cold sensation receptors (TRPM8 receptors) on the skin and mucous membranes, generating a "simulated coolness" neural signal. Due to its multiple benefits such as cooling, anti-itching, refreshing, and fragrance, menthol is widely used in the food, medicine, cosmetics, and industrial sectors.
Application:
I. Food and Beverage Industry
Perfume and cooling agents: Menthol is one of the most widely used cooling-type flavorings in the food industry. It is widely used in products such as candies (especially mint candies), chewing gum, chocolate, ice cream, baked goods, and soft drinks, imparting a unique cooling taste and mint aroma to the products. For example, the commonly used addition amount in chewing gum is approximately 1100mg/kg, in candies it is about 400mg/kg, and in ice cream it is about 68mg/kg.
Oral Care and Functional Foods: Used as fragrances and coolants in oral care products such as toothpaste and mouthwash; in some functional foods, taking advantage of its ability to boost energy, relieve fatigue.
II. Medicine and Clinical Treatment
Local pain relief and itch relief: As an ingredient in topical medications, menthol works by creating a cooling sensation to alleviate skin itching, mild pain, and discomfort from mosquito bites. It is often added to products such as itch-relieving ointments and rheumatism pain-relieving ointments.
Oral preparations and respiratory medications: When taken orally, they act as antispasmodic drugs, having the effects of dispelling wind, strengthening the stomach, increasing appetite, and alleviating flatulence; they are also used in some cough syrups and throat lozenges, providing a cooling and soothing effect on the throat, and relieving inflammation of the nasal and pharyngeal areas.
III. Cosmetics and Personal Care Products
Skin care and hair care products: With their refreshing and soothing properties, as well as oil control and a subtle mint fragrance, they are widely used in facial cleansers, toners, lotions, shampoos, body washes, talcum powder and perfumes, and are particularly suitable for neutral to oily skin types.
Makeup and Sun Protection: In some foundation and sunscreen products, menthol can help alleviate greasiness and provide a refreshing application experience.
IV. Industry and Cosmetics
Daily chemical products: As one of the most important fragrance raw materials, it is used for adding fragrance to products such as air fresheners, household detergents, and soaps.
Tobacco flavoring: Widely used in tobacco products such as cigarettes and electronic cigarettes, it provides a refreshing sensation and enhances the taste.
