TL;DR: In this article, a detailed analysis of the thermal expansion mechanism of graphite oxide to produce functionalized graphene sheets is provided, where it is shown that the decomposition rate of the epoxy and hydroxyl sites exceeds the diffusion rate of evolved gases, yielding pressures that exceed the van der Waals forces holding the graphene sheets together.
