Product Introduction
What is Menthol?
Bulk Menthol, also known as menthol, is a terpene organic compound extracted from the leaves and stems of mint. It is a white crystal and is the main component of mint and peppermint essential oils. It is a natural medicinal material with a strong cooling property and is known as the "source of coolness". There are generally two isomers (D-type and L-type), and natural menthol is mainly the left-handed isomer (L-menthol). It is soluble in ethanol and miscible with oils. It has a cool, fresh, pleasant mint characteristic aroma with a sweet thorny smell.
It not only plays an important role in medicine, but also brings a touch of coolness to people in daily life, so it is often used as an additive in food, medicine and cosmetics. It can be used as a flavoring agent for toothpaste, perfume, beverages and candies.

What Are The Benefits?
Anti-inflammatory
It has a certain anti-inflammatory effect, which can reduce inflammatory reactions and relieve symptoms such as swelling and pain. This has a certain auxiliary effect in the treatment of diseases such as oral ulcers and skin inflammation.
Analgesia
It has a certain analgesic effect and can relieve mild pain, such as headaches, toothaches, muscle pain, etc. Its analgesic mechanism may be related to stimulating cold receptors and inhibiting the transmission of pain signals.
Refreshing
The cool taste and aroma of menthol can stimulate the cerebral cortex, improve attention and concentration, help relieve fatigue, and refresh the mind.
Increase the aroma of food
The most common way in life is to increase the aroma of food. It is often used as a food flavor. Menthol is often added to candies, chewing gum, and baked goods for flavoring. The mint gum and mint cakes we usually eat are produced after adding menthol.
Antibacterial and antiviral
Bulk Menthol can destroy the cell membrane of bacteria, causing it to wrinkle and rupture, and has a good inhibitory effect on Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus. At the same time, it can have a good effect in resisting influenza virus.
Promotes penetration and absorption
It can increase the permeability of the skin and promote the penetration of lipophilic drugs by disrupting the lipid ordered structure of the stratum corneum and extracting some lipids of the stratum corneum.
Expectorant and cough-relieving
It has an anti-irritant effect, which can make the trachea produce new secretions and make thick sputum easy to discharge; and it can relax smooth muscles and has a good cough-relieving effect.
Anti-inflammatory and antipruritic
It contains a substance called catechol acid, plus its rich mint aroma and spicy and cool properties. After applying it on the skin, it feels cool and can eliminate skin inflammation. After being bitten by mosquitoes, applying water containing menthol in time can also reduce the symptoms of redness and swelling.

Production Method
Traditional steam distillation method
The mint crude oil is subjected to steam distillation. This method has low extraction efficiency but low cost.
Organic solvent extraction method
The mint is extracted using organic solvents (such as petroleum ether), but there is a toxicity problem of residual organic solvents.
Supercritical carbon dioxide extraction method
Extracted from mint using supercritical carbon dioxide. This method has high yield, good product quality, no residual solvent toxicity, and is suitable for large-scale production.
Microwave radiation and supercritical extraction method
Combining microwave radiation and supercritical extraction technology to improve the extraction rate and purity, it is suitable for modern production.
Semi-synthesis method
Using citronellal or piperitone as raw materials, it is synthesized through cyclization and hydrogenation processes. This method is suitable for the extraction of specific raw materials.
Thymol hydrogenation method
Through the hydrogenation process of thymol, racemic menthol and its isomers are obtained, and then L-menthol is separated through distillation and recrystallization processes.
Freeze crystallization method
Freeze crystallization from mint oil, centrifugation to obtain pure L-menthol, and then further purified through hydrogenation and esterification processes.
