Graphite oxide is a derivative of graphite, a form of carbon that is known for its layered structure. Graphite oxide is produced by the oxidation of graphite, typically through chemical methods that introduce various functional groups (such as hydroxyl, carboxyl, and epoxy groups) onto the graphite layers. This process disrupts the regular structure of graphite, resulting in increased interlayer spacing and the formation of a more amorphous material.
