Cooling Agent WS-5 – Long-Acting High-Impact Cooling
CAS: 68489-14-5
One of the strongest cooling agents – smooth, well-rounded, up to 30 minutes.
Product Overview
WS-5 is among the strongest of all cooling agents. Derived from menthol yet virtually odorless and tasteless, it produces a smooth, well-rounded cooling wave centered on the roof of the mouth and the back of the tongue. Its long-acting profile – up to a full half hour of cooling – makes it the first choice for chewing gum, pressed candy and any application where the cooling must outlast the product itself.
