A new type of menthol derivative cooling agent

A new type of menthol derivative cooling agent has become the dominant cooling sensation.

When it comes to taste, people first think of sour, sweet, bitter, spicy, salty and so on.

 However, in recent years, "cool" has begun to become a novel taste.

When Speaking of cooling agents, the first product come to our mind must be menthol (mint).
Indeed, menthol is one of  the most common cooling additives,  also called mint.
It is a cool,fresh-sweet and light mint-like taste. It is the main component of peppermint essential oil, colorless needle-like crystals/ granular.

However, in recent years, people’s requirements for coolness have become more and more delicate, which also shows some of the shortcomings of menthol
(1) Menthol is volatile and not resistant to high temperatures. Some products that require high-temperature processing are restricted, such as food, cigarettes, etc.
(2) The cooling sensation lasts for a short time;
(3) Strong irritation to eyes;
(4) Obvious mint taste with bitterness;
(5) The feeling of coolness is not strong

In order to overcome the shortcomings above, Since the 1960s, many chemists has began to modify the structure of menthol and Menthone, to research their substitutes for requirements of different occasions. After decades of study, many new cooling additives have been synthesized. So far, there are 8 kinds of commercial cooling agents come out.
