Advanced Biobased Nanocellulose Composites Engineered by Low‐Energy Electron Beam Processing
Sustainable biobased raw materials such as nanocellulose, citric acid, and chitosan were combined and subsequently treated using a dose‐dependent selective low energy electron beam process for crosslinking and functionalization, leading to the successful production of a novel scalable material system.

Hurdles to overcome to achieve biostimulant‐driven, low chemical input crop production
Crop production requires considerable chemical inputs that result in significant greenhouse gas emissions and other environmental costs. Biostimulants are natural agents, such as microorganisms or seaweed, applied to plants and soil to stimulate plant growth and reduce chemical inputs. Biostimulant use is rapidly increasing globally, but hurdles remain,
