The Best Drywall Alternatives for Interior Walls - Ecohome
Gypsum is a natural stone found in abundance in the earth. In construction, gypsum is most commonly used as Gyproc panels, or drywall. It’s made by mixing water and aggregates (sand, vermiculite or perlite), and then the gypsum is pressed between two continuously rolling sheets of paper and allowed to harden.

- How to make lightweight gypsum eco-friendly?
- Hydration products (AFt, AH 3 and C-S-H gels) are formed to improve the microstructure and increase the compressive strength of lightweight gypsum under the effect of SAC. The preparation of eco-friendly lightweight gypsum can be realized by using of β-HPG and EPS particles.
- Which cementitious materials are used for the preparation of lightweight gypsum?
- In this study, β-HPG and EPS particles as the main cementitious materials and lightweight aggregates were used for the preparation of lightweight gypsum. The structure of lightweight gypsum consists of hardened gypsum, EPS particle and the interface between EPS particles and hardened gypsum.
- Which EPs particles can be used to prepare eco-friendly lightweight gypsum?
- β-HPG and EPS particles can be used for the preparation of eco-friendly lightweight gypsum. Core-shell EPS particles were obtained to improve the interface and compressive strength of lightweight gypsum. SAC can further increase the compressive strength of lightweight gypsum.
- Can lightweight gypsum be improved with EPS particles?
- As mentioned above, the mechanical properties of lightweight gypsum can be improved by the modification of EPS particles. However, the compressive strength of lightweight gypsum still decreases sharply with increasing content of core–shell EPS particles.
- How much does lightweight gypsum cost?
- According to the mix proportion, the total cost for per cubic meter of lightweight gypsum is 271.9 CNY (The price of core–shell EPS particles is estimated based on price of EPS particles), which is 41.8 USD. To be noticed, the prices of the materials listed in Table 5 fluctuate with the market.
- Does lightweight gypsum have a higher compressive strength than unmodified EPs particles?
- The results show that lightweight gypsum with core–shell EPS particles has better interface and higher compressive strength compared to that produced with unmodified EPS particles. Moreover, SAC can further increase the compressive strength of lightweight gypsum.
