XPS results for BaSO4 after flow-through testing in pH 4.5 PSF for 72 h. (A) Photoelectron energy line for Ba (3 days). (B) Photoelectron energy line for S (2p). The spectra can be fitted quantitatively with the benchmark chemical shifts of BaSO4. The elemental composition (Fig. S4) confirms a ratio Ba:S of 1:1.023, all consistent with an identification of the transformation product as BaSO4. Data was acquired and averaged on N = 5 measurements.
