Product Description

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.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is WS-3?

WS-3 (N-ethyl-p-menthyl-3-carboxamide) is a highly effective, synthetic cooling agent that triggers the body's TRPM8 cold receptors to provide a clean, long-lasting, and virtually odorless cooling sensation.

How does the cooling intensity of WS-3 compare to menthol?

The cooling effect of WS-3 is approximately 1.5 times stronger than that of traditional menthol, and it provides a significantly longer-lasting cooling sensation without the strong odor.

Can WS-3 be used in high-temperature manufacturing?

Yes. WS-3 is highly heat-resistant and remains stable at temperatures above 200℃. This makes it ideal for application in baked goods, high-temperature food processing, and heated tobacco products.

What are the main benefits of WS-3 in oral care products?

In oral care applications like toothpaste and mouthwash, WS-3 delivers fresh breath, enhances the user experience with a lasting cool sensation, and causes minimal irritation compared to other cooling agents.

Why is WS-3 combined with menthol in personal care items?

WS-3 is frequently combined with menthol to extend and enhance the overall duration of the cooling impact in products such as shaving creams, skincare, and daily chemical goods.

Is WS-3 suitable for e-cigarettes and tobacco products?

Yes, its non-volatile and thermal stability properties allow WS-3 to improve the taste, reduce irritation, and add a smooth, cool flavor profile to e-liquids and heated tobacco products.
