Effect of Nanofibrillated Cellulose on Alginate and Chitosan Film Properties as Potential Barrier Coatings for Paper Food Packaging
This study aimed to test the utility of ammonium persulfate (APS) oxidised nanofibrillated cellulose (NFC) as an additive for chitosan- and alginate-based biopolymer films that could eventually be used Baby Kits as paper coatings for food packaging applications.Sodium alginate and chitosan were used as the base for the films.Various concentrations
The Pains of Hardware Security: An Assessment Model of Real-World Hardware Security Attacks
From military applications to everyday devices, hardware (HW) security is more relevant than ever before.The supply chain of integrated circuits is global and involves multiple actors, which facilitate the implementation of various attacks.Its complexity increases the attack surfaces, violating not only the privacy of the users or even national sec
Differential privacy for eye tracking with temporal correlations.
New generation head-mounted displays, such as VR and AR glasses, are Wreaths coming into the market with already integrated eye tracking and are expected to enable novel ways of human-computer interaction in numerous applications.However, since eye movement properties contain biometric information, privacy concerns have to be handled properly.Priva
