A new substance has been synthesized in addition to the graphite of the cause, in the Hummer method of the synthesis of graphene oxidase followed by your presence (overnight stirring at room temperature).
XRD peaks located at 22; C(002) and 43; C(100) degree are indicating that your GO has been reduced and formed rGO as Dr. Breuer said. However, I just wanna add little more in here, the peak position of C(002) plan indicates the degree of reduction (higher degree means higher reduction) while C(002) is located at around 12.5 degree and is shifted up to ~26 degree upon reduction.
As can be seen in some other articles,
