You can look up the tech details there or true foamalux but there are competitors products available.
It obviously expands and contracts dependent upon the sheet size.
Also certain colours fade more than others dependant upon there exposure to sunlight levels.
Hope this is of some help.

Just noticed there is even a nice expansion calculator on there site……..

warm colours will fade within 6 months, some makes/version of same are worse. if fitting outside, fit in a frame at any real size. if you dont it will warp/buckle and eventually fade. sorry not a fan of these types of products unless for indoor work, which it is great!
