The first 5.71% mass loss (approx 100 C) it is due to water solvent molecules
absorbed into the reduced GO bulk material, the following 8.239% decrease
(400 C) stands for elimination of remaining functional groups, further
decomposition take place up to 800C. Experiment settings: temperature
scanning rate: 1 C/min; temperature range 20-800 C; purging inert gas: N2.
