Description

冷感剤組成物Cooling agent composition
 本発明は、エタノールを主成分とすることなく冷感効果を発揮し得る冷感剤組成物に関するものである。 The present invention relates to a cooling sensation composition capable of exerting a cooling sensation effect without using ethanol as a main component.
 夏の暑さ対策として、肌に直接又は肌に接する衣類の表面上に噴射して清涼感を付与する様々なタイプの冷感剤組成物又は冷感化粧料等が開発されている(例えば特許文献1~4参照)。これらの冷感剤組成物の主成分としては、一般的にL-メントールが用いられている。L-メントールの冷感作用は、実際に温度を下げるわけではなく、神経に直接作用することにより、感覚的に冷感を付与するものである。 As a measure against the heat of summer, various types of cooling sensation compositions or cooling sensation cosmetics have been developed that give a refreshing sensation by spraying directly on the skin or on the surface of clothing in contact with the skin (for example, patents). Refer to Documents 1 to 4). L-menthol is generally used as the main component of these cooling sensation compositions. The cooling sensation effect of L-menthol does not actually lower the temperature, but directly acts on the nerves to sensuously impart a cooling sensation.
 L-メントールは、有機溶剤や濃塩酸には容易に溶けるものの、水には極めて溶け難いといった性質を有している。そのため、従来の冷感剤組成物においては、エタノールに溶解した態様でL-メントールが用いられている。 L-menthol has the property of being easily soluble in organic solvents and concentrated hydrochloric acid, but extremely insoluble in water. Therefore, in the conventional cooling sensation composition, L-menthol is used in a manner dissolved in ethanol.

 しかしながら、上記の冷感剤組成物はL-メントールをエタノールに溶解させた構成であるため、使用者が敏感肌である場合に不快な刺激を与えたり、密室空間や換気の不十分な空間での使用において引火のおそれがある。そのため、主成分のエタノールを水に代え、L-メントールを単純に水に溶解させる試みがなされたが、L-メントール成分自体が水溶性ではないため、容易には溶解できないといった問題を有していた。 However, since the above-mentioned cooling sensation composition is composed of L-menthol dissolved in ethanol, it may cause unpleasant irritation when the user has sensitive skin, or may be used in a closed room or a space with insufficient ventilation. There is a risk of ignition in the use of. Therefore, an attempt was made to simply dissolve L-menthol in water by replacing ethanol as the main component with water, but there is a problem that the L-menthol component itself is not water-soluble and cannot be easily dissolved. It was.
 そこで、本発明は、上記のような状況に鑑みてなされたもので、エタノールを溶媒の主成分とすることなく、従来のものと同等以上の時間継続して冷感成分の冷感効果を発揮し続ける冷感剤組成物を提供することを目的としている。 Therefore, the present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and exhibits the cooling sensation effect of the cooling sensation component continuously for a time equal to or longer than that of the conventional one without using ethanol as the main component of the solvent. It is an object of the present invention to provide a cooling sensation composition that continues to be used.
 したがって、本発明の冷感剤組成物は、水溶液中に、非イオン界面活性剤によりミセル化された冷感成分が分散されていることを特徴としている。また、本発明の冷感剤組成物においては、冷感剤組成物全量に対して、前記冷感成分が0.01~6.00質量%、及び、前記非イオン界面活性剤が0.10~10.00質量%含有されていることが好ましい。 Therefore, the cooling sensation composition of the present invention is characterized in that the cooling sensation component micellarized by the nonionic surfactant is dispersed in the aqueous solution. Further, in the cooling sensation composition of the present invention, the cooling sensation component is 0.01 to 6.00% by mass and the nonionic surfactant is 0.10 with respect to the total amount of the cooling sensation composition. It is preferably contained in an amount of about 10.00% by mass.
 このような特徴を備えた本発明によれば、エタノールに代えて水を溶媒とした水溶液の冷感剤組成物において、冷感成分を良好に分散し、噴霧された際に長時間にわたって清涼感を付与することができる。 According to the present invention having such characteristics, in an aqueous solution cooling sensation composition using water as a solvent instead of ethanol, the cooling sensation component is satisfactorily dispersed, and when sprayed, a refreshing sensation is maintained for a long time. Can be given.
 また、本発明の冷感剤組成物においては、前記非イオン界面活性剤は、親油性界面活性剤及び親水性界面活性剤の混合物であることが好ましい。このような態様によれば、冷感成分を良好にミセル化することができ、安定的な冷感剤とすることが可能になる。 Further, in the cooling sensation composition of the present invention, the nonionic surfactant is preferably a mixture of a lipophilic surfactant and a hydrophilic surfactant. According to such an aspect, the cooling sensation component can be satisfactorily converted into micelles, and a stable cooling sensation agent can be obtained.
 さらに、本発明の冷感剤組成物においては、前記非イオン界面活性剤によりミセル化された冷感成分は、粒子径が5~200nmであることが好ましい。また、本発明の冷感剤組成物においては、安定剤がさらに0.01~10.00質量%含有されていることが好ましい。 Further, in the cooling sensation composition of the present invention, the cooling sensation component micellarized by the nonionic surfactant preferably has a particle size of 5 to 200 nm. Further, in the cooling sensation composition of the present invention, it is preferable that the stabilizer is further contained in an amount of 0.01 to 10.00% by mass.

 本発明の冷感剤組成物によれば、エタノールを溶媒の主成分とすることなく、従来のものと同等以上の時間継続して冷感成分の冷感効果を発揮し続ける冷感剤組成物を提供することができる。 According to the cooling sensation composition of the present invention, the cooling sensation composition which continues to exert the cooling sensation effect of the cooling sensation component for a time equal to or longer than that of the conventional one without using ethanol as the main component of the solvent. Can be provided.
 本発明者は、上記課題を解決するために、冷感剤組成物における冷感成分の溶解について鋭意研究を行った結果、冷感成分をミセル化することによって、溶媒を水とした際にも水溶液中において冷感成分を良好に分散することが可能であることを見出し、本発明の冷感剤組成物を発明するに至った。 As a result of diligent research on the dissolution of the cooling sensation component in the cooling sensation composition in order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present inventor made the cooling sensation component into micelles, even when the solvent was water. They have found that it is possible to satisfactorily disperse a cooling sensation component in an aqueous solution, and have invented the cooling sensation composition of the present invention.
 以下、本発明の実施形態に係る冷感剤組成物について詳細に説明する。なお、本発明は下記の実施形態に限定されるものではない。 Hereinafter, the cooling sensation composition according to the embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail. The present invention is not limited to the following embodiments.
 本発明の冷感剤組成物においては、水溶液中に、非イオン界面活性剤によりミセル化された冷感成分が分散されていることを最大の特徴としている。このような構成によれば、エタノールに代えて水を溶媒とした水溶液の冷感剤組成物において、冷感成分を非イオン界面活性剤によりミセル化しているため、冷感成分は低温下においても針状結晶として析出することなく、良好に分散されており、噴霧された際に長時間にわたって清涼感を付与することができる。なお、この非イオン界面活性剤によりミセル化された冷感成分は、殆ど粘性を有していないため、スプレーにより良好に噴霧することができる。 The greatest feature of the cooling sensation composition of the present invention is that the cooling sensation component micellarized by the nonionic surfactant is dispersed in the aqueous solution. According to such a configuration, in the cooling sensation composition of an aqueous solution using water as a solvent instead of ethanol, the cooling sensation component is made into micelles by a nonionic surfactant, so that the cooling sensation component can be contained even at a low temperature. It is well dispersed without precipitating as needle-like crystals, and when sprayed, a refreshing sensation can be imparted for a long period of time. Since the cooling sensation component micellarized by this nonionic surfactant has almost no viscosity, it can be sprayed satisfactorily by spraying.
 本発明の冷感剤組成物においては、非イオン界面活性剤によりミセル化された冷感成分の粒子径が5~200nmであることが好ましい。ミセルの大きさが5nm未満とするには、フルイタイザーという装置を使って物理的に小さくする必要があるため好ましくない。一方、ミセルの大きさが200nmを超えると、ミセル形成が非常に困難となるため好ましくない。 In the cooling sensation composition of the present invention, it is preferable that the particle size of the cooling sensation component micellarized by the nonionic surfactant is 5 to 200 nm. If the size of the micelle is less than 5 nm, it is necessary to physically reduce the size by using a device called a fluitizer, which is not preferable. On the other hand, if the size of the micelles exceeds 200 nm, the formation of micelles becomes very difficult, which is not preferable.
 本発明の冷感剤組成物は、冷感剤組成物全量に対して、冷感成分が0.01~6.00質量%、非イオン界面活性剤が0.10~10.00質量%、及び、安定剤が0.01~10.00質量%含有されていることが好ましい。また、本発明の冷感剤組成物におけるミセルにおいては、冷感成分が8.33~23.08質量%、非イオン界面活性剤が38.46~83.33質量%、及び、安定剤が8.33~38.46質量%の範囲で配合されていることが好ましい。 The cooling sensation composition of the present invention contains 0.01 to 6.00% by mass of a cooling sensation component and 0.10 to 10.00% by mass of a nonionic surfactant with respect to the total amount of the cooling sensation composition. And, it is preferable that the stabilizer is contained in an amount of 0.01 to 10.00% by mass. Further, in the micelle in the cooling sensation composition of the present invention, the cooling sensation component is 8.33 to 23.08% by mass, the nonionic surfactant is 38.46 to 83.33% by mass, and the stabilizer is. It is preferably blended in the range of 8.33 to 38.46% by mass.
 本発明における冷感成分は、通常化粧品等に使用されるものであればいずれのものであってもよく、本発明の冷感剤組成物100質量%に対して0.01~6.00質量%の範囲で配合できる。冷感成分の配合量が0.01質量%より少ないと、十分な清涼感を得ることができず、一方、配合量が6.00質量%より多いと、経済性の点で実用的ではない。また、冷感剤組成物のミセルにおいては、冷感成分が8.33~23.08質量%の範囲で配合できる。冷感成分のミセル中の配合量が8.33質量%より少ないと、十分な清涼感を得ることができず、一方、ミセル中の配合量が23.08質量%より多いと、経済性の点で実用的ではない。 The cooling sensation component in the present invention may be any one as long as it is usually used in cosmetics and the like, and is 0.01 to 6.00% by mass with respect to 100% by mass of the cooling sensation composition of the present invention. Can be blended in the range of%. If the amount of the cooling sensation component is less than 0.01% by mass, a sufficient refreshing sensation cannot be obtained, while if the amount of the cooling sensation component is more than 6.00% by mass, it is not practical in terms of economy. .. Further, in the micelle of the cooling sensation composition, the cooling sensation component can be blended in the range of 8.33 to 23.08% by mass. If the blending amount of the cooling sensation component in the micelle is less than 8.33% by mass, a sufficient refreshing sensation cannot be obtained, while if the blending amount in the micelle is more than 23.08% by mass, it is economical. Not practical in terms of points.
 本発明における冷感成分としては、L-メントール、イソプレゴール、カンファー、シネオール、メントン、乳酸メンチル、コハク酸メンチル等のメントール類似体又はメントール誘導体のいずれかを用いることができる。本発明においては、これらの冷感成分の中でも、清涼感の効果維持や経済的な観点から、L-メントールであることが最も好ましい。 As the cooling sensation component in the present invention, either menthol analogs such as L-menthol, isopulegol, camphor, cineole, menthone, menthol lactate, and menthol succinate, or menthol derivatives can be used. In the present invention, among these cooling sensation components, L-menthol is most preferable from the viewpoint of maintaining the effect of refreshing sensation and economically.
 また、本発明における非イオン界面活性剤は、冷感成分をミセル化するために配合される成分であり、冷感成分の水溶液中の分散を可能とするとともに、冷感成分の揮発を抑制している。この非イオン界面活性剤の形状は特に限定されるものではないが、液状又はペースト状が好ましい。また、本発明における非イオン界面活性剤は、親油性界面活性剤及び親水性界面活性剤の2種をバランスよく配合することが好ましい。 Further, the nonionic surfactant in the present invention is a component that is blended to convert the cooling sensation component into micelles, which enables the cooling sensation component to be dispersed in an aqueous solution and suppresses the volatilization of the cooling sensation component. ing. The shape of this nonionic surfactant is not particularly limited, but a liquid or paste form is preferable. Further, as the nonionic surfactant in the present invention, it is preferable to mix two kinds of a lipophilic surfactant and a hydrophilic surfactant in a well-balanced manner.
 本発明における非イオン界面活性剤の配合量は、0.10~10.00質量%の範囲で、好ましくは2.00~6.00質量%の範囲であることが好ましい。非イオン界面活性剤の配合量が0.10質量%より少ないと、冷感成分を十分にミセル化することができず、一方、配合量が10.00質量%より多く配合しても、これ以上ミセル化が進行することはなく、経済面からしても10.00質量%以内に抑えておくことが望ましい。また、冷感剤組成物のミセルにおいては、非イオン界面活性剤が38.46~83.33質量%の範囲で配合できる。非イオン界面活性剤のミセル中の配合量が38.46質量%より少ないと、冷感成分を十分にミセル化することができない。一方、ミセル中の配合量が83.33質量%を超えても、これ以上ミセル化が進行することはないため、経済的にもこの範囲に抑えておくことが望ましい。 The blending amount of the nonionic surfactant in the present invention is preferably in the range of 0.10 to 10.00% by mass, preferably in the range of 2.00 to 6.00% by mass. If the blending amount of the nonionic surfactant is less than 0.10% by mass, the cooling sensation component cannot be sufficiently micellized, while even if the blending amount is more than 10.00% by mass, this cannot be achieved. As mentioned above, micelle formation does not proceed, and it is desirable to keep it within 10.00% by mass from the economical point of view. Further, in the micelle of the cooling sensation composition, the nonionic surfactant can be blended in the range of 38.46 to 83.33% by mass. If the amount of the nonionic surfactant compounded in the micelles is less than 38.46% by mass, the cooling sensation component cannot be sufficiently converted into micelles. On the other hand, even if the blending amount in the micelle exceeds 83.33% by mass, the micelle formation does not proceed any more, so it is economically desirable to keep it within this range.
 本発明における親油性界面活性剤は、HLBが7より低い界面活性剤を意味し、具体的には、アルキルグリセリルエーテル、グリセリン脂肪酸エステル、ソルビタン脂肪酸エステル、プロピレングリコール脂肪酸エステル、グリセリン脂肪酸エステル、ポリグリセリン脂肪酸エステル、またそれらの塩等を用いることができる。 The lipophilic surfactant in the present invention means a surfactant having an HLB lower than 7, specifically, alkyl glyceryl ether, glycerin fatty acid ester, sorbitan fatty acid ester, propylene glycol fatty acid ester, glycerin fatty acid ester, polyglycerin. A fatty acid ester, a salt thereof, or the like can be used.
 本発明における親水性界面活性剤は、HLBが7より高い界面活性剤を意味し、具体的には、グリセリン脂肪酸エステル、ソルビタン脂肪酸エステル、ポリエチレングリコール脂肪酸エステル、ポリオキシアルキレンアルキルエーテル、ポリオキシアルキレン脂肪酸エステル、ポリオキシエチレンアルキルエーテル、ポリオキシエチレングリセリン脂肪酸エステル、ポリオキシエチレンソルビタン脂肪酸エステル、ポリオキシエチレンソルビット脂肪酸エステル(ポリオキシソルビトール脂肪酸エステル)、ポリオキシエチレンポリオキシプロピレンアルキルエーテル、ポリオキシエチレンポリオキシプロピレングリコール、ポリオキシエチレン硬化ヒマシ油、ポリオキシエチレン高級アルコールエステル、ポリグリセリン脂肪酸エステル、それらの塩等を用いることができる。 The hydrophilic surfactant in the present invention means a surfactant having an HLB higher than 7, specifically, glycerin fatty acid ester, sorbitan fatty acid ester, polyethylene glycol fatty acid ester, polyoxyalkylene alkyl ether, polyoxyalkylene fatty acid. Estel, polyoxyethylene alkyl ether, polyoxyethylene glycerin fatty acid ester, polyoxyethylene sorbitan fatty acid ester, polyoxyethylene sorbit fatty acid ester (polyoxysorbitol fatty acid ester), polyoxyethylene polyoxypropylene alkyl ether, polyoxyethylene polyoxy Polyethylene glycol, polyoxyethylene hydrogenated castor oil, polyoxyethylene higher alcohol ester, polyglycerin fatty acid ester, salts thereof and the like can be used.
 さらに、本発明の冷感剤組成物に配合される安定剤は、冷感成分及び非イオン界面活性剤のみでは冷感成分の再結晶化により安定したミセルを得ることができない場合に、それを補う分だけ配合すればよく、0.01~10.00質量%の範囲で配合することができる。安定剤の配合量が0.01質量%より少ないと、冷感成分を安定してミセル化することができない。一方、安定剤の配合量は10.00質量%より多く配合することも可能だが、非イオン界面活性剤の配合量もそれに伴い増加しなくてはいけないことや、安定剤を過剰に入れすぎると本発明の冷感剤組成物の安定性が失われるおそれがあるため、10.00質量%以内に抑えておくことが望ましい。また、冷感剤組成物のミセルにおいては、安定剤が8.33~38.46質量%の範囲で配合できる。安定剤のミセル中の配合量が8.33質量%よりも少ないと、冷感成分を安定してミセル化することができない。一方、ミセル中の配合量が38.46質量%を超えると、本発明の冷感剤組成物の安定性が失われるおそれがあるため好ましくない。 Further, the stabilizer blended in the cooling sensation composition of the present invention can be used when stable micelles cannot be obtained by recrystallization of the cooling sensation component only with the cooling sensation component and the nonionic surfactant. Only the amount to be supplemented needs to be blended, and the blending can be in the range of 0.01 to 10.00% by mass. If the blending amount of the stabilizer is less than 0.01% by mass, the cooling sensation component cannot be stably converted into micelles. On the other hand, the amount of stabilizer can be added in excess of 10.00% by mass, but the amount of nonionic surfactant must be increased accordingly, or if too much stabilizer is added. Since the stability of the cooling agent composition of the present invention may be lost, it is desirable to keep it within 10.00% by mass. Further, in the micelle of the cooling sensation composition, the stabilizer can be blended in the range of 8.33 to 38.46% by mass. If the amount of the stabilizer compounded in the micelles is less than 8.33% by mass, the cooling sensation component cannot be stably converted into micelles. On the other hand, if the blending amount in the micelle exceeds 38.46% by mass, the stability of the cooling sensation composition of the present invention may be lost, which is not preferable.

評価
 上記のようにして得られた実施例1及び比較例1の冷感剤組成物をスプレーにより噴射させて、40mm×40mmの綿/ポリエステル(50/50)の布風袋に塗布し、塗布量を測定した。次に、この冷感剤組成物を塗布した布風袋をそれぞれ50℃、40℃及び30℃で3分間放置した後、冷感剤組成物の残量を測定した。実施例1及び比較例1の冷感剤組成物について4回測定した結果をそれぞれ表1~6に示した。

 表1~6から明らかなように、本発明の実施例1の冷感剤組成物においては、揮発率がそれぞれ20.40%(50℃)、20.02%(40℃)及び11.12%(30℃)であり、比較例1の冷感剤組成物の揮発率54.49%(50℃)、47.35%(40℃)及び40.62%(30℃)に比べて揮発性が非常に抑制されていることが示された。この結果は、溶媒である水とエタノールの蒸気圧が大きく違うためであり、溶媒が水である実施例1の冷感剤組成物は、布風袋からの揮発量が抑えられ、より長い時間にわたって冷感を付与し続けることができることを示している。なお、ここでの蒸気圧とは、液体(個体)から気体へと状態変化する力を示したもので、数値が高い程、気化し易いことを示している。 As is clear from Tables 1 to 6, in the cooling sensation composition of Example 1 of the present invention, the volatility is 20.40% (50 ° C.), 20.02% (40 ° C.) and 11.12, respectively. % (30 ° C.), which is more volatile than the volatility of the cooling agent composition of Comparative Example 1 of 54.49% (50 ° C.), 47.35% (40 ° C.) and 40.62% (30 ° C.). It was shown that sex was highly suppressed. This result is because the vapor pressures of water and ethanol, which are the solvents, are significantly different, and the cooling sensation composition of Example 1 in which the solvent is water has a suppressed amount of volatilization from the cloth tare, and over a longer period of time. It shows that it is possible to continue to give a feeling of coldness. The vapor pressure here indicates the force of changing the state from a liquid (solid) to a gas, and the higher the value, the easier it is to vaporize.
2.L-メントール及び安定剤の状態安定性
 次に、本発明の冷感剤組成物において、L-メントールに対する安定剤の配合量を変化させて、安定剤の好適な配合量を検証した。なお、各冷感剤組成物は、上記の実施例1の組成において、L-メントールを1.00~3.00質量%の範囲、及び、安定剤を0.00~5.00質量%の範囲で1.00質量%ずつ配合量を変化させて調製した。
2. State Stability of L-Menthol and Stabilizer Next, in the cooling sensation composition of the present invention, the blending amount of the stabilizer with respect to L-menthol was changed to verify the suitable blending amount of the stabilizer. In each cooling sensation composition, in the composition of Example 1 above, L-menthol was in the range of 1.00 to 3.00% by mass, and the stabilizer was in the range of 0.00 to 5.00% by mass. It was prepared by changing the blending amount by 1.00% by mass in the range.
 作製された各冷感剤組成物を、室温と仮定した20℃の恒温槽にて1週間静置保存し、冷感剤組成物の状態安定性を下記基準で目視判定した。状態安定性の評価基準としては、冷感剤組成物全体が白青色か白濁していて分離が確認できず、ミセル化している状態を〇とし、冷感剤組成物が分離している状態を×とした。各冷感剤組成物における安定剤の配合量についての結果を表7に示した。 Each of the prepared cooling sensation compositions was left to stand for 1 week in a constant temperature bath at 20 ° C. assuming room temperature, and the state stability of the cooling sensation composition was visually judged according to the following criteria. As an evaluation standard for state stability, the state in which the entire cooling sensation composition is white-blue or cloudy and separation cannot be confirmed, and the state in which it is micellar is marked as 〇, and the state in which the cooling sensation composition is separated is defined as 〇. It was marked with x. Table 7 shows the results of the blending amount of the stabilizer in each cooling sensation composition.

 表7から明らかなように、安定剤が配合されない場合には、冷感剤組成物が分離してしまい、ミセル化できないことが確認された。また、L-メントールの配合量が小さいのであれば、それを補う様に安定剤の配合量を大きくすることで、L-メントールをミセル化した本発明の冷感剤組成物を得ることができる。このことから、安定剤を適切に配合することで良好な本発明の冷感剤組成物を調製し得ることが示された。 As is clear from Table 7, it was confirmed that if the stabilizer was not blended, the cooling sensation composition would separate and could not be made into micelles. Further, if the blending amount of L-menthol is small, the cooling agent composition of the present invention obtained by micellarizing L-menthol can be obtained by increasing the blending amount of the stabilizer so as to supplement it. .. From this, it was shown that a good cooling sensation composition of the present invention can be prepared by appropriately blending a stabilizer.
3.低温時のL-メントールの析出検証
 L-メントールは低温時になると針状結晶として析出し、良好な外観安定性が維持できない不具合がある。また、結晶として析出すると冷感剤組成物中のL-メントール濃度が下がり、清涼感の低下の問題が起こってしまう。そこで、低温時における針状結晶の析出を検証した。なお、本検証における各冷感剤組成物は、上記検証のものと同様のものを用いた。
3. 3. Verification of precipitation of L-menthol at low temperature L-menthol precipitates as acicular crystals at low temperature, and there is a problem that good appearance stability cannot be maintained. Further, when precipitated as crystals, the concentration of L-menthol in the cooling sensation composition decreases, which causes a problem of a decrease in refreshing sensation. Therefore, the precipitation of acicular crystals at low temperature was verified. The cooling sensation composition used in this verification was the same as that in the above verification.
 作製された各冷感剤組成物を、5~10℃にて2週間静置保存し、針状結晶の析出の有無を下記基準で目視及び光学顕微鏡より判定した。析出の有無の評価基準としては、初期品と差がなく、針状結晶の析出も認められない状態を〇とし、微量の結晶の析出が認められる状態を△とし、針状結晶が析出し、冷感剤組成物が分離または凝固している状態を×とした。各冷感剤組成物における低温時の外観についての結果を表8に示した。 Each prepared cooling sensation composition was allowed to stand at 5 to 10 ° C. for 2 weeks, and the presence or absence of precipitation of needle-like crystals was judged visually and by an optical microscope according to the following criteria. As the evaluation criteria for the presence or absence of precipitation, a state in which there is no difference from the initial product and no precipitation of needle-like crystals is observed is marked with ◯, a state in which precipitation of a small amount of crystals is observed is marked with Δ, and needle-shaped crystals are precipitated. The state in which the cooling agent composition was separated or solidified was marked with x. Table 8 shows the results of the appearance of each cooling sensation composition at low temperature.

 表8に示されているように、安定剤を過剰に配合しすぎても、低温時にはL-メントールの針状結晶が析出することが確認された。このことから、安定剤を適切に配合することで低温時でもL-メントールが析出しない本発明の冷感剤組成物を得ることができることが示された。 As shown in Table 8, it was confirmed that even if an excessive amount of stabilizer was added, acicular crystals of L-menthol were precipitated at low temperature. From this, it was shown that the cooling sensation composition of the present invention in which L-menthol does not precipitate even at a low temperature can be obtained by appropriately blending the stabilizer.
