Wholesale WS-3 Food Grade Effective Cooling Agent

Introduction of WS-3

WS-3 (N-ethyl-p-menthyl-3-carboxamide), a synthetically produced, highly effective cooling agent, works by activating the TRPM8 cold receptors in the human body to produce a long-lasting, non-irritating, and virtually odorless cooling sensation. Its cooling effect is approximately 1.5 times that of menthol and lasts longer.

Main Applications and Functions:

Food and Beverages: It imparts a cooling sensation to chewing gum, candy, beverages, ice cream, etc., enriches flavor profiles, and masks unpleasant aftertastes. Due to its heat-resistant properties, it is suitable for food systems requiring high-temperature processing.

Oral Care: Used in toothpaste, mouthwash, lozenges, etc., providing fresh breath and a long-lasting cooling experience, improving oral odor with low irritation.

Tobacco and E-cigarettes: Improves the taste of tobacco and e-liquid, reduces irritation, and imparts a unique cooling flavor; due to its non-volatile and heat-resistant properties (stable above 200℃), it is particularly suitable for heated tobacco products.

Daily Chemicals and Personal Care: Added to toothpaste, shaving cream, perfume, skincare products, and wipes, providing a cooling sensation and enhancing user comfort; often combined with menthol to enhance the duration of the cooling effect.
