AB  - Hydrophilic graphene sheets were synthesized from a mixture of magnesium and 
      gallic acid (GA) modified graphene oxide (GO) in a self-propagating 
      high-temperature synthesis (SHS) process, and hydrophilic graphene sheets 
      displayed the higher C/O ratio (16.36), outstanding conductivity (~88900 S/m) and 
      excellent water-solubility. GO sheets were connected together by GA, and GA was 
      captured to darn GO structure defects through the formation of hydrogen bonds and 
      ester bonds. In SHS process, the most oxygen ions of GO reacted with magnesium to 
      prevent the escape of carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide to from the structure 
      defects associated with vacancies, and GA could take place the high-temperature 
      carbonization, during which a large-area graphene sheets formed with a part of 
      the structure defects being repaired. When only GO was reduced by magnesium in 
      SHS process, and the reduced GO (rGO) exhibited the smaller sheets, the lower C/O 
      ratio (15.26), the weaker conductivity (4200 S/m) and the poor water-solubility 
      because rGO inevitably left behind carbon vacancies and topological defects. 
      Therefore, the larger sheet, less edge defects and free structure defects 
      associated with vacancies play a key role for graphene sheets good dispersion in 
      water.
