MENTHOL BOLD CRYSTALS FROM MENTHOL FLAKES
[EIRI/EDPR/1097] (J.C.9741)
INTRODUCTION
Menthol is a white crystalline chemical product. It is manufactured either from natural source or is produced synthetically. Laevo or Racemic form are only therapautically active melting point of natural or synthetic laevo menthol lies between 41 and 44oC.
Some manufacture classify crystals according to their shape and size and thus many terminologies are used by them e.g. bold crystal medium crystals, medium extra crystals, medium extra large crystals. Menthol is marketed in almost all size of container from 25 kgs. packs to 2 gm pack. Most popular packs are 5 kgs. 500gm. and 900gm. Menthol is packed in sealed or unsealed plastic or PVC bags. Paper bags are rarely used. Which are not desirable. These filled bag are than packed in printed or unprinted sealed or unsedal tin container's. Occasionally cardboard boxes are used which again are unsatisfactory for a variety of reason.
The commercial cultivation of the plants knwn as peppermint and spearmint, members of the genus mentha (Fam. labiatae) and the extraction processing and shipment of their oils, including menthol crystals, constitute an industry enrolling over $100 million in transactions each year. The mint plant are perennials yielding aromatic oils which are of increasing importance and have indeed long been a longest the world's most valuable flavouring materials. Mint is probably the world's third most important flavour being exceeded in popularity only vanilla and citrus flavours. The oils obtained by the relatively simple process of steam distillation belong to a chemical class of plant product variably returned to as essential, volatile or ethereal oils, whose chemical composition consists almost entirely of hydrocarbon and oxygenated compounds know as terpenoids. The major terpene in peppermint oil is the alcohol menthol, accounting for the cooling sensation of peppermint oil.
Menthol has got wide range of applications ranging from perfumery cigarettes, liquors, as a horning agent in chewing gums and a no. of pharmaceutical formulations, it is marketed in the form of flakesfine crystals as well as bold crystals each has its own application outlets.
Although there are a good number of firms manufacturing menthol, menthol bold crystals have got an increased demands because of increased formulations and growth in the pharmacential industry.
