About

A menthol derivative phosphate designed to provide cooling sensation and skin conditioning while being more chemically stable than pure menthol.

Aminopropyl Menthol Phosphate combines the cooling sensation of menthol (derived from peppermint oil) with a phosphate linkage and aminopropyl group to create a more substantively effective cooling ingredient. The phosphate ester linkage provides chemical stability and controlled release of the menthol component. The pubchem_safety_score of 77 is consistent with other menthol derivatives used in cosmetics, with the phosphate modification intended to reduce volatility and extend the cooling effect.
