According to the present invention, there is provided a wet accelerator for use in the manufacture of a gypsum product, said wet accelerator comprising water, particles of calcium sulphate dihydrate and a stabiliser. Additionally, a method of preparing a wet accelerator and a method of producing a gypsum product are described.

Gypsum panels and methods for their manufacture are provided herein. The gypsum panels include a gypsum core having a first surface and a second opposed surface and a first fiberglass mat associated with the first surface of the gypsum core, such that gypsum from the gypsum core penetrates at least a portion of the first fiberglass mat.

A high temperature sag resistant lightweight wallboard. The addition of a small amount of urea (about 0.1%) significantly improves the high-temperature sag resistance on Type X gypsum wallboards. These gypsum wallboards may have a board weight of less than 2100 lbs/msf when cast to have an overall 5.8 inch thickness, and may include glass fibers and/or mineral wool. Also, methods of making the gypsum wallboard and a wall system for employing the gypsum wallboard.
