Security-enhanced three-factor remote user authentication scheme based on Chebyshev chaotic maps by Yan Zhao, Shiming Li, Liehui Jiang, Tieming Liu

“…However, we found that Park et al.’s scheme is vulnerable to offline password guessing attack, which is the most serious threat against this kind of authentication scheme. In addition, their scheme cannot provide complete correctness due to the misuse of bio-hashing and also fails to achieve user untraceability and perfect forward secrecy. …”

Environmental Friendly Bleaching Process of Polyester Materials via Direct Process of Water without Heating System by Farnaz Sadat Fattahi

“…. = 74.1) was obtained after 10.0 hours of bleaching at 25°C.The SEM image of the polyester (PET) fabrics bleached with H2O2 for 10.0 hours indicated that few nano-sized remained (dusts, waxes and impurities) on the fabric bleached with H2O2 for 10.0 hours. In addition, it has been confirmed that PET fabrics bleached with this method have lowest damage on the fabrics (only 0.716% weight loss, insignificant mechanical reduction). …”
