摘要

A menthol-containing solids composition comprising or consisting of: (a) a solid menthol component consisting of bodies having a content of 95 wt. % or more of menthol, based on the total weight of the bodies, and (b) a solid anticaking agent, comprising or consisting of particles having a particle size of not more than 100 mum, wherein particles of the anticaking agent adhere to the surface of the bodies of the menthol component, wherein the solid anticaking agent is chosen from the group consisting of calcium phosphate, magnesium phosphate, magnesium hydroxycarbonate, magnesium oxide, mixtures of magnesium oxide and silicon dioxide, mannitol, calcium silicate, magnesium silicate, talc, polydimethylsiloxane, Al, Ca, K, Na, Mg or NH₄⁺ salts of edible fatty acids, and mixtures thereof, and wherein the content of the anticaking agent is not more than 8 wt. % and the content of the menthol component is at least 91 wt. %, in each case based on the total weight of the solids composition.
