The degradation of the internal structure of plutonium (IV) oxalate during calcination was investigated with Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM), electron diffraction, Electron Energy-Loss Spectroscopy (EELS), and 4D Scanning TEM (STEM). TEM lift-outs were prepared from samples that had been calcined at 300°C, 450°C, 650°C and 950°C. The resulting phase at all calcination temperatures was identified as PuO2 with electron diffraction. The grain size range was obtained with high-resolution TEM. In addition, 4D STEM images were analyzed to provide grain size distributions. In the 300°C calcined sample, the grains were |
