Menthone glycerin acetal
Description
Menthone glycerin acetal (CAS 63187-91-7 ), also known commercially as Frescolat MGA and L-Menthone glycerol ketal, is a synthetic cooling agent used in flavor and fragrance formulations. Unlike menthol, it delivers a mild, long-lasting cooling sensation without a pronounced minty taste. This makes it suitable for applications where sensory balance is critical for the final product profile. In food and beverage formulations, it extends cooling perception in chewing gums, confectionery, and mint-flavored products at low use levels. It is highly valued for its ability to sustain freshness. Personal care manufacturers incorporate it into oral care products such as toothpastes and mouthwashes. In these applications, a sustained cooling effect is preferred over a sharp, immediate menthol impact. It also functions effectively in topical cosmetic products such as lip balms, skin creams, and after-sun preparations. These formulations rely on the ingredient to deliver a refreshing sensory profile. Beverage and dairy applications use it to add cooling character without the flavor dominance of traditional menthol. This allows for more complex flavor profiles in premium consumer goods. Menthone glycerin acetal is supplied as a clear to pale yellow liquid. It is available in food-grade quality aligned with FEMA 3808 designation, supporting use in flavored consumer products. The material is handled under established regulatory frameworks to ensure safety. Packaging typically ranges from small drums to bulk quantities suited to flavor house and industrial buyer requirements. Contact us for supply of Menthone glycerin acetal Request Quote
