Structural and thermal transitions in the materials with nominal compositions of NaxCoO2 (0.5≤x≤0.75) have been investigated from room temperature to 800 K. In-situ heating transmission electron microscopy observations revealed certain distinctive structural phase transitions commonly existing in this system. A superstructure hexagonal phase, proposed arising from partial Na ordering, appears in this system in a high temperature range. The structural model for the superstructure phase has been given. Measurements of thermogravimetry (TG) and differential thermal analysis (DTA) demonstrated that certain structural phase transitions appear around 430 K. NaxCoO2 is decomposed at a temperature higher than 600 K.
