We examined how incorporating fly ash into magnesium phosphate repair mortar (MPM) influences its effectiveness in cold environments. Our investigation revealed that fly ash modifies the microstructure of the MPM, enhancing its performance without affecting the setting time or fluidity significantly.
We discovered that adding 10% to 15% fly ash improves the mechanical strength, adhesion, water resistance, and stability of the mortar. Notably, we found that the curing temperature plays a critical role; as the temperature rises, compressive strength increases, while properties like flexural strength decrease.
Interestingly, even when cured in icy conditions at -20°C or 0°C, MPM with fly ash retains good early strength and strong adhesion properties. This suggests magnesium phosphate repair mortar modified with fly ash is suitable for emergency repairs in cold weather, showcasing its potential for use in challenging environments.

We examined the use of copper-magnesium (CuMg) alloys, particularly focusing on those with higher magnesium content, to understand how they perform during cold metal working processes. Our testing aimed to identify the effects of magnesium on the mechanical properties and workability of these alloys, as they’re known to provide significant solid-solution hardening.
The results revealed that CuMg alloys with 2 to 4 weight percent (wt%) magnesium displayed impressive strength characteristics, outperforming commonly used materials like pure copper and aluminum. We calculated improvements in hardness and Ultimate Tensile Strength (UTS), showing increases of up to two and a half times compared to pure copper. However, we noted that while magnesium enhances strength, it also raises friction during processing, which can complicate metal forming.
We learned that increasing magnesium content could lead to brittleness when it exceeded approximately 3.6 wt%, introducing challenges for cold working. This brittleness arises from the formation of specific phases, making it challenging to use these alloys in practical applications. Our findings suggest that while magnesium can significantly boost the mechanical properties of CuMg alloys, careful consideration is needed regarding its maximum content to maintain ductility and workability.

Magnesium enhances vascular preservation
We examined the effectiveness of modified Krebs-Henseleit (KH) solutions with low calcium and high magnesium levels on preserving vascular function during cold storage. Our focus was on whether adding adenosine and lidocaine could further improve the preservation of rat aortic rings after six days of cold preservation.
In our study, we found that traditional preservation solutions often fail to maintain proper vascular function after just three days of cold storage. However, when we tested a modified KH solution with lower calcium and higher magnesium, we observed significant recovery of contraction and relaxation functions in the aortic rings. This suggests that magnesium plays a vital role in preserving these functions.
Interestingly, while adding adenosine and lidocaine did not enhance contraction, it did improve the aortic rings' ability to relax in response to a chemical called acetylcholine. Furthermore, a histological examination showed that the addition of adenosine positively affected the endothelial lining and structural integrity of the vessels, highlighting its importance in cold preservation.
Overall, our findings suggest that magnesium in combination with adenosine significantly enhances the preservation of vascular structures and functionalities during extended cold storage, making it an important consideration for vascular grafts.

I'm taking a bath with a cap based on your reviews. It was so cold that I couldn't sleep without adding hot water, but now my legs don't get cold. My family says that the pain in the shoulders and lower back has eased. I realise that magnesium should be absorbed through the skin.

The body is warm! I bath for a long time even in summer, yet I often feel cold after getting out. After seeing numerous reviews, I tried this. One cup melts quickly in the bathtub with no odour. I was surprised that my feet remained warm after my bath! It’s essential in fall and winter.

Magnesium improves beef storage safety
We explored the effects of incorporating hydrogen-producing magnesium into minced beef meat (MBM) to see how it affects quality and safety during cold storage. The study involved vacuum packaging the MBMs and storing them at 4°C for 12 days while comparing them with other treatments, such as gassing with hydrogen or nitrogen.
What we found was quite promising. The samples with magnesium showed the lowest browning index values, which indicates less color change and better visual quality. Additionally, these samples exhibited reduced bacterial counts, including mesophilic and psychrotrophic bacteria, as well as yeast and molds. This suggests that magnesium can help in maintaining the freshness and safety of the meat.
Interestingly, the magnesium treatment also limited the formation of potentially harmful compounds, such as thiobarbituric acid reactive substances and biogenic amines, which can negatively impact meat quality. By the end of the storage period, the control samples had the highest levels of volatile compounds, hinting at spoilage, while magnesium-enhanced and vacuum-packaged samples fared better.
Overall, we observed that using hydrogen-producing magnesium while handling minced beef could be an effective way to protect important quality attributes and safety during cold storage.

Wonderful! It's easy to use because it melts right away in the bathtub, and if you stay in for a long time at lukewarm temperature, it’s great for sweating! Magnesium flakes help with coldness and swelling, and I feel the quality of the hot water has improved!

Stays warm long
I no longer feel cold after a bath! Even in the depths of winter, I stay warm for 2-3 hours post-bath until I get into bed. I'll definitely be buying it again!

Immediate relief

It's not my first order. I add it to the children's bath several times a week nearly since birth. I occasionally take a bath myself, more often just a foot bath, especially during the cold season. It has incredible results—if I feel unwell, I make a hot foot bath with this magnesium salt, and everything passes quickly. I highly recommend it.

Future use recommendation
I began using this product as I was worried about feeling cold after baths in winter. It warms me up and makes me feel less cold. I quickly bought a large capacity bottle and recommend it.

Saved in winter
I can't have a bath without these magnesium flakes! I absolutely love them. Even in the cold winter, when I bathe with this, my body truly warms up.

Long-lasting warmth
After my first use, I measured the recommended amount but found it easier to use 2-3 cups. It lacks colour or scent, creating a neutral bathing experience. After the bath, my body doesn’t feel cold, and I appreciate that it stays warm for a long time. Claimed to be an essential this winter.

Internal warming effect
I put in 2-3 handfuls for each bath. I felt like my body was warmed from within, and I didn't feel cold at all, nor did my skin become rough. My sleep quality has noticeably improved.

Improves circulation warmth
I'm pleased with the large capacity. On particularly cold days, it warms me from the core and helps improve circulation.
