Overview of WS-5

WS-5, chemically known as N-((ethoxycarbonyl)methyl)-p-menthane-3-carboxamide, is one of the most powerful synthetic cooling agents available in the global Flavor and Fragrance (F&F) industry. Often referred to as the "Super Coolant," WS-5 offers a cooling intensity approximately 2.5 to 4 times stronger than menthol. Unlike traditional menthol, it is virtually odorless and tasteless, providing a clean, long-lasting chill primarily at the roof of the mouth and the back of the tongue without any bitter aftertaste or "minty" interference.

In industrial manufacturing, WS-5 is prized for its extreme heat resistance and stability. It can withstand processing temperatures up to 200°C, making it the gold standard for high-heat applications like baking and confectionery. As a custom chemical synthesis company, ChemicalBull provides premium WS-5 at competitive wholesale chemical rates for large-scale production. To optimize your refreshing formulations, explore our active inventory of  Propylene Glycol, and Citric Acid.


Key Features

  • Extreme Cooling Intensity: 250%–400% more potent than menthol, requiring very low dosages.

  • Heat Stability: Maintains full cooling efficacy even after high-temperature heating (up to 200°C).

  • Pure Sensory Experience: Provides a "chilled" sensation without the smell or flavor of peppermint.

  • Long-Lasting Effect: The cooling sensation can persist for over 30 minutes, enhancing consumer satisfaction.


Applications of WS-5 Cooling Agent

Food & Beverage Industry

WS-5 is essential for creating "Ice" flavored beverages, energy drinks, and alcoholic spirits without altering the core flavor profile. To maintain the shelf-life and quality of these beverages, we supply high-purity Sodium Benzoate and Citric Acid Anhydrous at wholesale rates.


Personal Care & Cosmetics

Widely used in after-sun lotions, shaving foams, and shower gels for an immediate and sustained cooling "blast." As a chemical raw material supplier for cosmetics, we offer WS-5 alongside texture-enhancing agents like Cetyl Alcohol and skin-soothing Allantoin.


Oral Care & Pharmaceuticals

Commonly found in high-end toothpastes, mouthwashes, and throat lozenges for a deep, refreshing clean. To improve the efficacy of these oral care products, we provide bulk Sodium Lauryl Ether Sulfate (SLES). For brands developing topical pain-relief gels, we supply WS-5 from our ready stock as a reliable chemical vendor in Vapi.


Safety & Handling Guidelines

  • Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight in original sealed containers.

  • Usage levels are extremely low (typically 10-100 ppm); avoid over-dosage to prevent potential bitterness.

  • Handle with standard industrial PPE (gloves and safety goggles) as the concentrated powder can be a mild irritant.

  • Refer to the protocols provided by our industrial chemical COA and MSDS provider service for batch-specific safety data.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

  1. How does WS-5 compare to WS-23?

    WS-5 is significantly more powerful than WS-23 and has a longer duration of effect. While WS-23 cools the front of the mouth, WS-5 targets the back of the throat and roof of the mouth.

  2. Can WS-5 be used in e-liquids and vaping products?

    Yes, it is a popular choice for "Menthol-free" cooling in vaping applications due to its high purity and heat stability.

  3. Who is the best bulk WS-5 supplier in India?

    ChemicalBull is a leading industrial supplier. You can check our chemical raw material price list for the latest bulk quotes.

  4. Is WS-5 water-soluble?

    It has very low water solubility (<0.1%). It is best dissolved first in Propylene Glycol (PG) or Ethanol before being added to aqueous solutions.
