Introduction
Pyroglutamic acid menthyl ester, chemical name (1R,2S,5R)-5-methyl-2-isopropylcyclohexyl 5-oxo-L-proline ester, molecular formula C15H25NO3, CAS number 64519-44-4, is a transparent light yellow viscous liquid with poor fluidity and a slight mint smell. It is a synthetic cooling agent that can be slowly hydrolyzed by skin enzymes to release PCA (pyrrolidone carboxylic acid) and menthol, the main components of natural moisturizing factor.
Advantages
Long-lasting cooling: It can provide a long-lasting cooling feeling for more than 8 hours, giving people a long-lasting comfortable experience.
Mild and non-irritating: It is mild in nature, odorless, and has no irritation to the skin. It is suitable for all skin types.
Moisturizing and soothing: Because it releases PCA, it has a moisturizing effect, can also soothe the skin, has anti-inflammatory effects, and can relieve skin discomfort.
Good compatibility: It has a good compatibility and synergy with fragrances, and is easy to formulate into a variety of products, which is convenient for application in different fields.
Application
We widely use daily chemical products in all – day refreshing products, shampoo, shower gel, perfume, floral water, skin moisturizer, etc.
These products can give a cool feeling, moisturize and soothe the skin, and enhance the user experience.
We can use it as a food additive in beverages and other products in the food and beverage industry.
It provides a cool taste, and because it is odorless, it will not affect the original flavor of the product.
We add it to tobacco in the tobacco industry. It can make smokers feel cool when smoking and improve the smoking experience.
We may use it in some external medicines or skin care products in the medical field.
We utilize its cooling, moisturizing and soothing properties to relieve skin discomfort, such as in products used to treat skin inflammation, sunburn, etc. For example, CELESSENCE in the UK uses L – pyroglutamic acid menthyl ester in its “Cool Touch” textile finishing agent. This agent slowly releases odorless menthol to give the skin a cool feeling. We can use it to process close – fitting textiles such as pantyhose, underwear, T – shirts, sportswear, etc., and it has good washing fastness.
