Lignin‐Containing Nanocellulose Mediated Interlayer Modulation Unlocks Stable and Redispersible MXene

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Amphiphilic lignin‐containing nanocellulose (LNC) establishes competitive interactions between MXene nanosheets, enabling precise modulation of interlayer spacing and interfacial chemistry. This strategy allows rapid fabrication of semi‐solid MXene via industrial‐scale spray drying, achieving long‐term reversible redispersibility and exceptional ...

Does Contract Farming Improve Diet Quality? The Case of Senegalese Smallholders

Agribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The institution of contract farming has gained prominence in most developing countries owing to its numerous benefits. While several studies have already highlighted the welfare benefits of contract farming, very few have investigated the effects on diet quality, despite poor quality diets being a serious challenge in most parts of the ...
