The thermal behavior of two different bismuth oxalates was studied by using thermal analyses and temperature-dependent X-ray diffraction and focusing on inert and reducing atmospheres. Metallic bismuth nanoparticles produced from bismuth oxalate decomposition exhibited a significantly lowered melting point compared to the bulk melting temperature.
