Fig. 4

Sequence of HRTEM images and corresponding FFT showing nucleation of dehydration products, such as forsterite and talc, within amorphous lizardite. (ac) 500 °C, (df) 600 °C. The d = 5.26 Å is closer to the standard d value of (001)talc (d = 5.229 Å) than that of (001)Fo (d = 5.159 Å), especially when considering the effect of thermal expansion on lattice.
