Under normal range of temperatures and humidity, values are:

Thermal Coeffi cient of Linear Expansion = 16.2x10-6mm/(mmºC)

at temperature range 4 - 38°C.

Hygrometric Coeffi cient of Expansion = 7.2x10-6mm/mm/%R.H.

(5%-90%R.H.).

Thermal Resistance

Thermal Resistance (R) Values for the following plasterboard

thickness under normal ambient temperatures are:

10mm = 0.060m2K/W

13mm = 0.079m2K/W

16mm = 0.098m2K/W

Higher thermal resistance values can be achieved for walls and

ceilings when used with appropriate thermal insulation materials.
