As @konastab01 says, you'd want acoustic plasterboard. And it's normally used in two layers.
Even then, I wouldn't overestimate how much noise that will block. To have some reasonably effective noise insulation you need two layers of acoustic plasterboard plus decent insulation but then noise will find its way around any weak spots via flanking, under your non-acoustic door etc.
Great work @Hovis - very inspirational for me as I'm planning to build a new room within our new place so will need to build some walls.

Do you think that type of board would offer any kind of acoustic insulation? I reckon the wall in my office that separates that room and our bedroom might need totally redone so wondering if it would be worthwhile doing it with something that helps keep my work noise out of the bedroom in case I'm working late or mini_com is napping in there during the day.
