Glass magnesite is, to one degree or another, a popular solution for thermal insulation of walls, but it is worth noting that such a solution is not optimal. Naturally, this material has many advantages, including good strength, resistance to moisture, as well as relatively low weight, by the way, fires are not afraid of him either. There are a large number of tests when they tried to burn it with a burner, or put it in water for a long time, high-quality material withstood all checks of this kind, But do not forget about the minuses, having examined in more detail which it becomes clear that glass magnesite is not the best solution for thermal insulation walls.
First of all, it is worth noting that it is inferior in terms of its insulation qualities to drywall, this is a very big minus, since the material does not do its best with its main purpose. Therefore, choosing a more durable and stable material, you are likely to get poor thermal insulation, or even its absence.
The second aspect is the presence of a huge amount of low-quality products, which are found in all regions of the Russian Federation. You need to understand the fact that all glass magnesia is imported to us from China, most of this product is manufactured without adhering to any standards and technologies. You can check it quite simply, put one sheet in water, and then just wait 2-3 days if the quality material it retains all its qualities, as well as external. But frequent tests, when the leaf turned into a swollen porridge and it was really hard to recognize. If you take not a waterproof, but a moisture-resistant sheet, then in your case you can do a check: simply by dipping the sheet with steam, or by placing it in a room with a high level of humidity.
In general, summing up on the basis of the above, we can come to the following conclusion.
For wall insulation, there is so far nothing better than the usual drywall, projects where modern glass magnesite is used are mostly doomed to failure. It can be used for flooring, temporarily cladding, but not for thermal insulation of walls in a living room. Many experts in this field at first tried to use this material, but nevertheless it did not live up to expectations and could not give the level of heat preservation that the old, good drywall.
