Abstract: A pH combination electrode includes inner and outer tubes, working and reference electrodes, and a hydrogel diaphragm between the tubes. A seal is disposed inside the inner tube closer to a first inner tube end than to the second inner tube end. An extended reference chamber is formed inside the inner tube between the seal and the second inner tube end. A first conductive fluid is contained in the inner tube between the seal and the first inner tube end. A second conductive fluid is contained in the extended reference chamber and in a reference chamber formed between the inner and outer tubes. A through-hole in the inner tube allows the second conductive fluid to flow between the reference chamber and the extended reference chamber. The working electrode extends into the inner tube, through the seal and into the first conductive fluid. The reference electrode contacts the second conductive fluid.

Abstract: Devices, systems, and methods of the present disclosure are generally directed to building material including particles of a polymer in an irradiated form, a cement including calcium oxide, and at least one additive including silicon dioxide. In cement paste formed from a mixture of these components, the polymer in the irradiated form may decrease porosity as compared to porosity of cement paste formed without the polymer, and a combination of the silicon dioxide and the calcium oxide may form high-density phases in the cement paste. With these characteristics, such cement paste may exhibit at least the same compressive strength as cement paste formed from the cement by itself. Thus, in certain instances, the particles of the polymer may displace a portion of the cement in a manner that maintains compressive strength while facilitating reduction of greenhouse gas emissions associated with cement paste formation.

Abstract: A portable electronic device, such as a fluid infusion device, obtains its operating power from a primary battery and a secondary battery. The primary battery may be a replaceable battery, and the secondary battery may be a rechargeable battery that can be charged with the primary battery under certain conditions. The device utilizes a power management scheme that transitions between the primary battery and/or the secondary battery to prolong the useful life of the primary battery. The device may also generate an intelligent battery life indicator that displays an accurate representation of the remaining life of the primary battery.
